BATMAN PARTY INVITATIONS

BATMAN COMIC INVITATIONS - Start by removing several pages from various Batman comic books. Then Whiteout the words that appear in the comics' speech bubbles. Make color copies of these pages. Then write in the party details in the speech bubbles and mail them out to your guests.

BATMAN CAPE INVITATIONS - Start by creating a Batman and Robin cape template. Make several capes out of black and yellow cardstock. Write the child's initial in bold print in the center of the cape. On the front write, Calling All Cape Crusaders! Write the party details on the back; insert into a coordinating envelope, and mail or hand-deliver them to your guests.

BAT SYMBOL INVIATIONS - Cut a bat symbol from black cardstock and write the party info on the back using a silver gel pen. Place into a coordinating envelope and mail or hand-deliver it to your guests.

BATMAN BIRTHDAY PARTY PHOTO INVITATIONS - Cut 8 1/2" x 11" black cardstock into 2 pieces and fold in half. Using decorative scissors trim the edges of a photo of your child in a Batman costume, so photo is slightly smaller than card stock. Glue photo to front of invitation. Put "Help Me Save Gotham City" above the photo. On the inside write the party details.

Suggested wording for the invitation:

Holy Cake and Ice Cream, Batman (Child's name) is turning (age) and the Joker has stolen his Batman birthday cake! Come dressed in your favorite Batman character costume and help him battle the evil forces of the Joker!

Decorate the corners with Batman theme stickers.

EMBELLISH READY-MADE BATMAN BIRTHDAY PARTY INVITATIONS - Buy ready-made Batman invitations and embellish with glitter.


BATMAN PARTY COSTUMES

Be sure to invite your friends to come dressed in their favorite Batman character costume and to bring all of their super powers. As an alternative, as your guests arrive, turn them into Batman. In fact, you can make the transformation an activity for the kids to do at the party, or just go ahead and provide the various items upon arrival. Start with a black cape and add a black Batman emblem that is affixed to a yellow piece of fabric. Also hand out black Batman masks.
