When my son was that age, video game parties were the in thing to do. We mixed up a bit in that i would make pizza dough and have the sauce and stuff. The boys would smoosh out the dough on to the pans and put on sauce and toppings to their tastes.
We would also make a huge web of yarn, cut long (like 6 or 8 feet and put a candy at the end. Then wind the yarn around furniture and stuff into a huge "web," and let them follow it to find the candy.
My husband would take the runes from The Lord of the Rings books or Egyptian Hieroglyphics and make clues to find "treasure" which he made from rocks spray painted gold. He would make a 'key' of the runes so the boys could figure out their clues and search for the treasure.
