Camo Birthday Party Ideas – Camouflage party theme for the hunter, outdoor enthusiast, army soldier or survivor aka mother of five with twins celebrating their first birthday.

Camo Birthday Party Ideas

I cannot believe I am putting this post together. As many of you know, almost a year ago (December 2017), my husband and I were blessed with twins. Twins are hard enough but these two happened to be the cherries on what was already a “larger” family. You see, these boys added numbers four and five to our mix, making us Langston Party of Seven. I began planning for a larger first birthday. This was because the twins birthday is very close to Christmas (December 22) and I figured it was knocking two birds with one stone when we visited Florida. Getting the family together for Christmas and also for a one year old birthday celebration.

The First Year

I began researching ideas. Camo never came to mind. In fact, neither of us being hunters, it was very low on the list. My husband then stated, “Hey, let’s make this birthday about us. We survived the first year.” His phrase stuck. We survived and instantly the baby birthday celebration took on a whole new meaning, the survival of the first year for my husband and I.

We Survived

SO that is what it is. I share many camo birthday party ideas for the outdoor enthusiast, I share camo birthday party ideas for the army soldier, but I also share camo birthday party ideas for the parents of five kids who survived the first year of having twins. We did it husband! We survived!

Glow in the Dark Eggs Science Experiment

Glow in the dark eggs – a science experiment for kids. Easily create a naked egg through a chemical reaction of dissolving an egg’s shell in vinegar. Make it glow with this added ingredient for extra creativity and fun!

Glow in the Dark Eggs

Did you love our 5 Minute Science Experiments for Kids? We wanted to come up with some more ideas for you to enjoy!

At our house, we’re big science lovers. We love making fun science experiments with the kids that aren’t just the basic experiments, but that have a fun twist in some way. We found out that by using a highlighter marker as a dye, you can make the classic rubber egg science experiment glow in the dark!

How does it work? The dye in the highlighter marker is highly reflective, so when you shine a black light or a flashlight on the egg, it glows in the dark! You can also use this experiment to teach kids about osmosis, chemical reactions, and why vinegar dissolves egg shells.

If you don’t have a highlighter marker, you can also use the inside of a glow stick to make the eggs glow.

Glow in the Dark Eggs Supplies:

Not many ingredients are needed in this science experiment. Many of these supplies are probably found in your own home!

Extend this project! If you have all these ingredients, also try our Glow in the Dark Glowing Volcano Science Experiment!

Glow in the Dark Eggs Directions:

This process will take a few days but only take a few minutes to prep.

First, fill a jar with vinegar and set aside.

Cut open the highlighter marker and drop the ink pad into the vinegar. Make sure you squeeze the pad to remove all of the ink from the highlighter pad.

Carefully place one or two eggs into the jar. Set the jar on the counter for about 3 days.

Remove the eggs from the jar when bits of shell rise to the top of the jar. Rinse any remaining shell from the eggs.

Next, dry off the eggs and take them into a dark room.

This is the fun part! Shine a black light or flashlight on the eggs to watch them glow. The highlighter ink reacts with the light, making the egg glow!

Once you’re done admiring the egg’s glow, you can pop the egg open to examine the parts of the egg. The squishy membrane, the egg white, and the egg yolk are all clearly visible when these eggs are popped, which makes it a fun lesson in themes including the construction of an egg, osmosis, and chemical reactions.

What Happened?

A shell of an egg is made up of calcium carbonate. If you soak this egg shell in vinegar, you start a chemical reaction that dissolves the calcium carbonate shell releasing carbon dioxide gas. The egg insides remain intact and are held together by a membrane just inside the shell.
