IF YOU HAD YOUR BIRTHDAY PARTY ON THE MOON
Blast off for your first extraterrestrial birthday party!
On the glorious rocket ride, you and your friends will float. And on the Moon, you'll jump six times higher and farther than you can on Earth! You'll bounce in and out of craters, make "moon angels" in the moondust, and find that party balloons and piñatas behave very weirdly on the Moon!
Craterfuls of fun for kids who love space and birthdays!
