We all tend to have more fun than our kids when it comes to the birthday parties, however, Elizabeth Banks' story on the Ellen Show was pretty next level stuff.

Banks paid a visit to the Ellen DeGeneres show and the host made sure everyone know how busy Banks really is.

Between acting, writing, directing and her website WhoHaha, dedicated to women in comedy, Banks is pretty much the full package when it comes to a hard worker.

Banks said that she is having a lot of fun especially with WhoHaha, which cultivates funny women.

Banks told DeGeneres that she idolized female comedians of SNL's past and she wanted to honor women in comedy and shed a light on the fact that women are indeed great comedians. She had a lot of role models and wanted to provide a place where young women can go a feel inspired.

Banks has two kids, ages 5 and 3. Her oldest recently turned 5 and she told DeGeneres that all he wanted was a rave at Pump It Up!

So, Banks obliged and had a blacklight party rave for her son's birthday. She also told a story about a slick climbing wall and she admitted that it was the greatest work out.

However, she had so much fun she forgot there were kids climbing it so when she slide down the wall she was taking kids out on the way.
