Crowdtap's Madagascar 3 Circus Circle’s Most Wanted Party

I was chosen to participate in Crowdtap's Madagascar 3 Circus Circle’s Most Wanted Party !! I was SUPER excited about this because my kid's LOVE Madagascar & it gave us a reason to watch Madagascar 1 & 2 again !! We're going to see the 3rd hilarious installment in the next week or two & the kids CANNOT WAIT !!

So, I was emailed a party kit with the following items:

• - A crack-a-lackin recipe for Marty's zebra cake
• - A classic game with a "mad" twist featuring Gloria
• - Decorations, masks and face paint ideas to get everyone into the Madagascar mood
• - Fun activities and games to keep the party movin'

I made Marty's zebra cake, but horrible cook that I am, I didn't do it right & so we got all chocolate cake instead of the zebra cake !! I was too embarrassed to take a pic of that !! LOL  However, it was still really good & I added Cream Cheese Frosting, even though that wasn't in the recipe !!

We played "Pin the Tail on Gloria", made Madagascar character masks, did really cool mazes, played Tic-Tac-Toe AND found the images in the "Can You Tell the Difference?" photos !!  We didn't do the face painting due to sensitive skin & skin allergies !!

All in all, an A+ good time was had by all !! I can't WAIT to go see the movie in 3 D !!  Have YOU seen it ?!
