While you probably can’t afford to hire a photo booth for your party you can set up a ‘portrait zone’ of your own where you’ll take photos of your guest. When planning party duration, one hour is more than enough time for a toddler or pre-school party. For older children two to three hours is recommended. Involve children in party planning and preparation. Surprises are fun, but the kids like to get involved in planning, and this is a time when the kids are motivated to be especially helpful. When planning a birthday party the rule of thumb is have as many kid guests as the age of your child. Ditch the cake, and opt for cupcakes instead. They are easier for the kids to hold and eat, and you don’t need to cut them up! Avoid having balloons at parties for kids under 3, because balloons can be a choking hazard. When planning a party, time the party around naps so everyone’s freshest. Mid morning (10-11) or later afternoon (3-4) are good bets. Partying on Halloween? Unless you plan to take your guests on their quest for candy, you should pick a night other than the 31st. When deigning a spooky menu for halloween, serve finger foods that come in Halloween colors, such as orange slices, Cheetos, baby carrots, cheddar cheese cubes, Ho-Hos, black licorice, and blackberries. Need a simple party idea? Have your guest dress in all red or all yellow etc. – Color rainbows – Have a rainbow cake – Children can decorate your walkway using sidewalk chalk. For unique party invitations buy bag of balloons. On each balloon write out all of the party information, seal them in envelopes with confetti & give out as invitations. Thank you notes are important social skill builders. Children can enjoy writing thank you cards when they are fun colors and themes. A sure fire party tip is to plan plenty of activities to keep them busy. One sure hit was a wacky relay – Teams compete in relays including dress up clothing and hats One third of kids’ parties have a theme. Many of the most popular themes are kids’ favorite characters from the entertainment including Rugrats and Pokemon. Involve children in party planning. Kids like to get involved when motivated to be especially helpful. Follow the old birthday party planning rule of inviting the same number of young guests as your child’s age. Extend the after party fun by playing hide-and-seek with some of the gifts after guests leave. Give him easy clues to find them, such as “It’s in the room with the blue chair.” When planning a toddler party, invite family and the kids your toddler plays with regularly (four or five is plenty). An hour and a half is enough time to play, have a snack, sing, and eat cake. Knowing when to call it quits is key to a successful toddler birthday. For two-year-olds, an hour to an hour 1/2 of party fun is plenty. source |
