“Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting…”

The song is still playing in my head. It played in a loop during the AWESOME Kung Fu Panda party that our family went to this past weekend.

The party was FREE and very cool. We were invited because I am a contributor to DC Metro Moms Blog… a wonderful and helpful site and community. It is a great resource and we have sister sites all over the country, so go to DC Metro Moms and click on other sites as well.

My four-year-old son enjoyed the art project table and eating gummy bears and fruit loops with chop sticks…

Loved the dancers teaching the Kung Fu Panda Dance…

But he was in AWE of the Kung Fu Panda video game.

He has never played a video game before. I’ve lived by the premise-

He can’t miss what he doesn’t know about.

But this was a special party and experience, and in the video game he was a big portly Panda bear so it was pretty cool. He learned how to make the Panda walk and run and turn and dance and like I said, loved it.

I also think comedian AND DAD, Jack Black, who voices Kung Fu Panda is hilarious.

The food was great, complete with mac-n-cheese, delectable chicken fingers and veggies for the kids… Great salad, a custom-made pasta station and carving station for the parents. They even had a great desserts station that had everything made for little hands.

What a fun activity, complete with a cool goodie-bag.

And as a topper- we took Metro downtown to the party- which was equally fun for my little guy (remember ladies and gentlemen- it’s a train ☺).

Thanks to organizers for holding it at Zola which is a half block away from a Metro stop- GOOD PLANNING!

Just for the record: I told him the Kung Fu Panda video game was just to play at the ‘special party’. And he was cool with that.
