Have a large glass or glass jar filled with yellow and red jelly beans and tell each guest to use their superhero X-Ray vision to guess how many jelly beans are in jar...

Write everyone's name on one piece of paper and put their guess next to their name... Then just before your party ends, announce superhero guest with best X-Ray vision. (whoever guessed closest to actual number of jelly beans in jar wins.)

And remember to actually count number of jelly beans you put in jar before your birthday party begins... Then write actual number on a piece of paper and put that piece of paper somewhere safe and where you can easily get to it.

The Incredibles Movie And CD Fun

Set your Incredibles birthday party theme right away by having The Incredibles movie DVD or video playing on your TV as your guests arrive. (You can turn sound down low or off)... You can also surprise your birthday child by announcing that The Incredibles DVD or video is one of their birthday gifts...

For music during your birthday party games and activities, play The Incredibles movie soundtrack CD. This is an excellent way to keep your Incredibles birthday party theme going... You can also make CD a gift for your birthday child.

The Incredibles Coloring Book

Depending on age of your group, you can pick up an Incredibles coloring book and some small boxes of crayons... Take pages out of coloring book and let your party guests choose pages to color... This is also a fairly quiet activity.

The Incredibles Puzzle

Kids love puzzles and what better way for your guests to get to know each other than working on a puzzle together... Having a puzzle that fits your Incredibles birthday party theme is an added bonus.

The Incredibles Superhero Food and Drink

Even The Incredibles superheros need to replentish their energy after a long day of saving world from villainous "Syndrom."

Consider these fun superhero foods

How about a "superhero sandwich?" Let each guest build their own (super) hero sandwich... Keep it simple and put fun superhero labels on everything.

"Power Bread"

"More Power Mustard"

"Red Energy Sauce" (ketchup)

"Power Pickles"

"Total Energy Turkey"

"Super-Sauce Mayo"

"Mr. Incredible Celary"

"Elastiwoman Cheese Slices"

"Raw Energy Raisens"

"Power Packed Carott Sticks"

The Incredibles Superhero Energy Drinks

Try mixing Ginger Ale with cherry ice cream for a colorful superhero drink.

Punch can be re-named "The Incredibles Super Sauce"

For a fun and creative drink project, let your party guests mix three different and colorful Cool Aid drinks and Ginger Ale into their very own superhero drink... Cherry and Lime anyone?

For extra fizz, let them add pop-rocks...

Your Incredibles birthday party theme is going to be a big hit!

There are dozens of excellent Internet private schools parents can choose from. Some schools such as Keystone National High School only offer high-school programs while others offer a complete, kindergarten through 12th grade education.

Many accredited Internet schools give a course of study similar to traditional private schools. They take children through a progressive curriculum in math, science, reading and writing, history, and many other subjects.

This structured, comprehensive program, in effect, gives children a personal teacher and private-school education in their own living room.

This setup is especially helpful for single-working moms, or families where both mother and father work. Since Internet-school teachers supervise child's education, it's less likely that parents have to take time from work or quit their job to homeschool their kids.

As Turtel says to parents in his book , “You don’t have to settle for a third-rate public- school education for your children. You do have alternatives, many excellent, low-cost alternatives that can give your children a first-rate education and a rewarding future.”

"Public School, Public Menace" has a whole Resource section devoted to Internet private schools and many other education options. The author lists dozens of Internet schools with their website addresses. Parents can quickly research these schools, find out if yearly tuition fits their budget and curriculum and teaching methods look suitable for their child.
