I just threw a laser tag party for my son's
8th birthday. We used the basement because it was the darkest
room in the house.
We started by having all the kids paint on large
black sheets of paper different alien designs. We developed
a kind of moon scape theme. We hung all the painted sheets
on the wall and used a ultra-violet light from Spencer Gifts
to make it glow. We used day-glow paint to make it really
"pop."
We took plain white tee-shirts and used day-glow
glue from Michaels Crafts and made uniforms for each team.
We got some miniature glow-in-the dark laser
tags from TinyTag.com for
$4.95 each. (They make a great grab bag item.) We threw in
a couple of glow
sticks and it's a blast for the kids.
I served a cake in an alien-shaped design. The
kids all loved it....and it was easy to clean-up. The cost
was under $70 dollars.
