Kate's Birthday Party, by Kate (October 25, 2015)

My party happened a few weeks ago on a day off from school, on September 16.  It was a day off because it was Merdeka Day which is a Malaysian national holiday.

First, all my guests arrived and we did a scavenger hunt. Aimee planned it and hid all the different clues.  For the first activity we were “locked” in a room and had to get out.  We had to find different letters hidden all around the room and arrange them in a word.  Then we told the jailer, Aimee, the word and she would let us out depending on whether the word was correct.  Next, we had the main part of the scavenger hunt which was to look around the house for clues.  It was fun because we had to stick our hands in different things such as new shavings and newspaper pieces that were soaked in water.  The clues were put in plastic bags and hidden in the stuff.  The clues were different puzzles or riddles to find out where the next clue was.  Hidden in some of the clues were numbers.  We had to figure out the combination and open a treasure chest to get candy.

After the scavenger hunt we had a quick Pictionary game.  We drew on a white board that mom had got from her classroom.  We played in two teams. 

After, we had a dinner of macaroni and cheese.  My mom baked it in a casserole pan and we all had a helping.  For dessert we had red velvet cake with icing.  I got to blow out the candles.  After that we played Pit (a trading game) and we played Apples to Apples.
