Atomic Breath vs Birthday Candles: A Godzilla Themed Birthday Party

Post date: 2023-10-28 10:16:08

My soon to be 10 year old wants to celebrate his first decade on this planet by inviting his 3 best friends over for a Godzilla movie, snacks, and games. What are some things that I can do, make or buy to make a kaiju-themed 10th birthday REALLY AWESOME?

- we have a basement that doubles as a home theater with a 120" screen and projector, but it's not a fancy dedicated theater or anything, it's still our basement with a bunch of furniture that didn't make the cut for the upper floors and camping equipment on the shelves in the back. We could maybe do some kind of backdrop to cover up the camping equipment. He hasn't yet decided which movie will be the winner but it will be one of the recent ones.
- the kid LOVES to cook. He will get totally into making themed snacks for this if you give me some ideas of what they could be.
- There will obviously be popcorn. Cool ways to serve it?
- a budget of $200 (not including the cake). With only 5 kids (if you include his older brother, which he will) that leaves a lot of room for accoutrements.
- Mom is kind of crafty but has a busy job and so is not able to take on large projects and is also feeling a little creatively bankrupt right now.

Bonus points if you can think of a great birthday present for a kaiju-loving kiddo. He already has some posters.
