THE PERFECT BIRTHDAY PLANNING ADVICE

Birthday parties for children are exciting, to make that thrilling and memorable experience for the children, we must plan very carefully and work very smartly

The younger the participants the less structure you need to worry about.
The younger the kids, the more relaxed they will be. Keeping it simple with paperless post is important. Kids can entertain each other better than adults so you do not need to worry about too much structure. Minimal structure does not mean minimal parental supervision. A successful children  birthday Party must consist of  responsible adult supervision.

Planning the Party

Before you set out for shopping you must have a budget. Remember your budget will determine things like food, number of guest, entertainment, gifts etc.

Birthday Theme: This is  important while planning a child's birthday party, Set the theme of the party before you go out for shopping because this will direct your decoration set.

Games: The number, location and age of kids will determine what kind of games you should consider. Games are not an absolute must but it will help to entertain some of the older kids. You don't have to worry about games for a beach party as much as  party held at home or in a rented event space.

Birthday Location: Choosing the proper location is also an important success factor. We all know that  Kids need lots of space, they can be very hyper active and wouldn't like to sit around, so you have to give them space. Bear in mind that the location  must be very child friendly, very safe and very spacious to accommodate all your guest.

The Checklist: Make sure you don't leave home without a checklist. Shopping by a checklist will enable you to buy what is necessary. In addition, it helps to avoid impulse buying. Your list should include everything important for your party. It has to be carefully thought through before writing, such a list can help you relax, because you don't have to worry about remembering everything. Your list should include items such as  the cake, party favors, ice cream, games, etc. Depending on the particular party, you may not need a long list but make sure you have one.

Invitations: Make sure you send invitations at least two or three weeks prior to the party date, to allow parents plan and prepare their children. Using e-mail, text massages or paperless post to notify the parents may save you a lot of time  and money instead of mailing invitations. Always offer an RSVP so you know how many children and parents to expect for the party.

As much as you can, get the children involved with the planning. The more involved they are in the planning the more they will enjoy the party.
