Preparing for a Children's party? Throw the best kids' party with our tips. The birthday boy or girl is sure to remember their special day if you follow these simple suggestions
1. Keep the party small and simple. Parents tend to forget that kids really can have a lot of fun from small and simple things. So don’t stress too much!! Keep it small and simple. On average a typical birthday should have between 5-10 kids. Some people go by the rule: as many guests as the birthday child's age.
2. Make a budget and stick to it. Instead of focusing on what you can’t afford, think creatively about what you can. Even on a small budget, you can throw bash that’s more personal and meaningful then you could ever imagine.
3. Pick a Theme. It will add meaning and will help you save time when choosing decorations, snack and loot bags. Make sure you don’t choose too narrow themed fields, for example instead of Buzz Light-year theme for instance, try to go for a space hero party.
4. Don’t spend days cleaning up!
Local Parks, community halls, recreation centre’s all have rooms that can be rented. Be sure to schedule in advance!
5. Consider the Food. Kids love anything bite-sized, couple standard kids party foods ideas are hotdogs and pizza. They are great for fussy eaters and vegetarians alike. Go for mini, sliced or home made!
6. The cake. The decoration of the cake must connect with the party theme for a flawless party atmosphere. Kids generally like bright colors, make sure you keep that in mind when buying or making your cake!
