Plants vs Zombies Party Theme

 If you're thinking about having a Plants vs Zombies Party Theme then this post will help you find decorations, wallpaper, and wrapping paper that will totally fit your theme. My grandkids were in love with these creepy little dudes (talking about the Zombies) when they used to come to play video games here at my house and most of the information I have now, I would have loved to have had it back then, especially when it came to birthday party time. Anyway, between this game at a later version called Garden Warfare, I got to hear about and learn about all of the creepy Garden Warfare and Plants vs Zombies characters and why my grandkids liked them so much.

When it comes to a party theme as I have pointed out in other posts nothing pulls your party ideas together like a good party theme so if this topic is on your party planning list let me share with you some of the little extras that just might come in handy. Things like wall decorations, wallpaper, and wrapping paper from my Kid's Party Blog Affiliate. There are several different kinds of zombie designs on the wrapping paper choices that are sure to bring smiles to your little party guest's faces. Kookie designs meant more to amuse than scare the fun out of you.

Any of these cool zombie wrapping paper designs will help you set the party mood for this theme. Plants vs Zombies is a very popular video game and I was surprised to see how much fun the little fans of this game have bringing some of their plant and zombie characters to life with their costumes. With or without costumes enjoying the Plants vs Zombies theme seems to be great party fun.

There are Plants vs Zombie stickers that can be used to decorate presents, cups, even party guests.

My favorite is the zombie wrapping paper because it can be used not only to cover a birthday gift but also to decorate a table, perhaps even some chairs. I see many different decoration possibilities when it comes to adding to a Plants vs Zombies theme. There are Plants vs Zombies party games, Plants vs Zombies banners, and birthday cakes, so whether you choose to look for Plants vs Zombies party supplies at Walmart or DIY some of your own have a beautifully creepy party for all of the Plants vs Zombie lovers you know and remember.

Charlie Brown, Peanuts theme

 Charles M. Schulz Peanuts comic is featured in this post for party, and room decoration ideas and to share a little fun history about the Peanuts comics and characters. It's believed that Schulz came up with the idea to name his comic strip Peanuts because back in the late 1940s Peanuts was a well-known term for children. In fact, when the Howdy Doody Show was first shown in 1947, they called their audience section for children the Peanut Gallery. The very first Peanuts Comic Strip was published in October of 1950 and the first- time people would read about good ol' Charlie Brown, Schultz's alter-ego in the comic strip. That would also mark the first appearance of Shermy and Patty in the Peanuts comic strip.

I grew up reading the Peanuts comic strip that used to come surrounded by lots of other comics I used to enjoy. Over the years I have had many of my questions about the Peanuts comic strip answered, questions like is Snoopy male or female? The answer is male which was confirmed in the November 1950 Peanuts comic strip. Another question was, why is Charlie Brown bald? I would later learn that Charles Schulz visualized his alter-ego, Charlie Brown, with very close-cut hair that only appeared not to be there. Somehow it did make me feel better knowing that Charlie Brown really did have more hair than the little curl of hair on his forehead I had always focused on.

Bubble Gum Comic Strips

If you enjoy, or, if you are a collector of bubble gum comics you will enjoy visiting my Bubble Gum Comics board on Pinterest. When I was a kid the comic strip from Bazooka Joe bubble gum used to keep me following the Bazooka Joe adventures. I was rather surprised to learn that this childhood treat from my past is still available even though when last I heard the colorful comics that used to be wrapped around each piece of Bazooka gum since about 1953 was supposed to go through some kind of change. Following up on that news I found out that Bazooka had indeed overhauled its logo and packaging.

Gone is the Red, White, and Blue color scheme, and the brand's geometric design, replaced with the saturated hues of fuchsia and yellow. Bubble gum sales have gone way down since the days when Bazooka gum was a stable of almost any trip I made to the OK Grocery store near where I grew up. Bazooka gum has been around for a couple of years after WWII, (1947) I became aware of Bazooka gum back in the late 50s, early 60s and I actually used to collect the Bazooka Joe comic that used to come with the gum.

I also did some checking to see if Bazooka comic strips were worth anything today, I did see where selling in lots some 230 vintage bubble gum comic strips sold for $41.00. The single bubble gum comic from 1955, did sell for $5.00 so as to the question: are Bazooka Bubble Gum comic strip still worth anything my answer would have to be yes. Not worth a whole lot of money but yes! Still worth something today. Double Bubble was my other childhood favorite bubble gum when I was a kid. I don't know what the price of single piece of bubble gum (Bazooka or Double Bubble) would cost today but when I was a kid, a penny was all that was needed to buy my favorite bubble gum. The Double Bubble Gum company was started by Frank Fleer, back in 1906 he attempted to create a chewing gum he called Dibber Blubber but his mixture for the gum was too sticky and broke apart easily resulting in commercial failure for Frank Fleer's Dibber Blubber gum venture. It wouldn't be until an accountant named Diemer, who worked for Fleer, and who enjoyed experimentations in his spare time. Mr. Diemer's experimental tinkering would eventually allow him to stumble upon a truly unique gum recipe that was less sticky, and much easier to chew. Thus, the recipe for Double Bubble gum was born. The reason most bubble gum, no matter who the manufacture is pink is due mostly to the fact that the factory only had pink food coloring available. With a recipe that looked good the company wrapped about one-hundred-pices of the gum, set the price at one-cent each, and use local markets to offer their new bubble gum. When all of the samples sold out the first day the stage was set for their new product launch. Following the marking success of that first day the company packed their new bubble gum recipe as Double Bubble Gum and went on the pass more than one-point-five million is sales the first year. The Fleer colorful Funnies comic strip was featured with each piece of the original Double Bubble Gum. Dubs and Bubs did not come along until the 1930s and would later be replaced by the iconic Pud and his pals comic strip, in 1950. During World War II Double Bubble Gum was distributed to the troops fighting in that global conflict but by 1942 all bubble gum manufacturing in the United States was halted due to a shortage in sugar and latex. Production of Double Bubble Gum was restarted in 1951 and currently Double Bubble is distributed to sixty countries around the world. Double Bubble comics were a part of my bubble gum comic strip collection too. When I was a kid my mom was more into keeping things clean than collecting. So, unfortunately for me many of my collectible wrappers and comic strips were mistaken as junk and put out with the trash, the ones I was unable to rescue that is. The good news is that bubble gum comics and bubble gum wrappers are still collectible. Over 550,000 Comic Books for Sale
