Gravity of Motion

Are you familiar with Minecraft? It has a lot of admirers, but I'm sure you know something about it. Minecraft is a game of placing blocks to build anything you can think of. It is a game focused on creativity and building it allows players to construct structures from cubes that are textured in a 3D world. Gameplay in the commercial version is divided into two primary modes that are Survival that requires players to gain resources on their own and keep their health and hunger as well as Creative, where the player has an unlimited supply of resources, the ability to fly, and no concept of health or hunger.

On birthdays, our children wake up to a house full of birthday decorations.



I made Minecraft cups and plates for the table setting. I stuck an Minecraft face to the cups. For the plates, I glued an Minecraft face on green plates. Then I hot-glued another clear plate to the top.



The table decorations included Minecraft blocks. I also hung a few from the ceiling.



The kids loved them.



This link will lead you to the Ultimate Guide to Minecraft Paper Products. They were simple to create.



I made my son's creeper shirt with freezer paper stencils.



I printed a few Minecraft images for an invitation to a birthday. Then I made use of an Minecraft word generator (to add the words I wanted to add) to the Creeper signs. You can download the generator here: Minecraft MemeGenerator



I purchased the Minecraft pic-ax and used the packaging for another decorative sign. I made the Minecraft Steve heads using paper, glue, card board boxes, and cardboard boxes.



The Steve heads were an instant hit with the kids. Here's a picture I took of my boys and them prior to when they went to school.



Although you can buy Steve heads online, it's cheaper to make them yourself, particularly because I made four.



I found the Steve head template here and the directions here: SteveLange.net



For a snack in the afternoon, I made block brownies.



I made an Creeper Birthday Cake with green frosting, chocolate bars and chocolate chips.



It was a Creeper-filled Minecraft Birthday celebration.



I am linking this post up to Works-For-Me-Wednesday.



My son's excitement over his birthday party was a great motivator for me. I spent a lot of time looking on the internet for ideas. These suggestions and links will be a huge help to anyone who is a Minecraft player in your home.
