11/16/2009 08:25:31 AM Report AbuseI love this idea! Who ever wrote that this is worthless and stuff like that evidently doesn't have an imagination. Seriously, this wouldn't be a bad idea. If only you people had a little fun with your life, then maybe our wolrd wouldn't suck so bad. Get in touch with your childhood and have a little fun every now and then.

This would be a fun idea to incorporate into a Backwards Birthday Party.....the kids could wear clothes backwards...the entire order of the party could be backwards, with the presents and cake being done first off, etc. They could even learn to sing "Happy Birthday" backwards!
