Cool Birthday

One of my piano students, who happens to attend a classic charter school, is having a birthday. With a birthday comes a party, and they're gonna have a cool one: Ancient Greece and Rome. His eyes lit up as he told me all about it: gladiators and colluseums, and other cool stuff like that. His Mom was at a loss for a party favor, so we set and brainstormed for a few, and they've got those cardboard rivets, so they're going to construct shields for the gladiator fights, which the boys can then take home with them. He's turning 9, I think. He and his friends should have a blast! Gonna have to remember this idea for when the Monkey gets big enough to do themed parties like that.
