1. MAKE A PLAN. Take a few minutes to sit down and write out all the details a few weeks prior to the party (see checklist). If you follow the plan, you won’t panic at the last minute thinking you forgot something… you’ll know it’s all been taken care of.
2. LOCATION. LOCATION. LOCATION. Get the birthday child involved on this one. What are their interests? Martial arts, gymnastics, video games? There are a variety of businesses that specialize in birthday parties to meet the interests of most children. Whether your child is a budding scientist, a sports fanatic or just wants to have a princess party… you can find a location to accommodate. For older kids, swim parties are a big hit. If you don’t have a pool, check out the neighborhood pool or an indoor pool facility. Although backyard parties are still fun, choosing a place away from home offers an all-inclusive party where someone else does all the work.
3. DELEGATE. You can’t do it all. Assign simple duties to friends and relatives ahead of time to take some of the pressure off of you. Aunt Jane can write down whom the gifts are from, Dad can be in charge of the photos, while Uncle Bill makes sure that all the gifts get to the car after opening.
4. ENJOY. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the party! Even if everything doesn’t go exactly as planned, as long as the kids are having a good time, then the party is a success! The most important thing to remember is that this is your child’s special day. Make sure and have fun being part of it.
PARTY CHECKLIST 3 weeks before party: Choose a theme. Create the guest list. Pick the date and time- book the location. Purchase invitations, decorations, party favors, etc. 2 weeks before party: Send invitations. Plan the activities and games. Plan menu. Arrange for extra help for the party day from friends or relatives. 1 week before the party: Order the cake. Write out a final schedule of activities for the party. 3 days before the party: Purchase food. Make sure your phone is cleared off leaving plenty of room for new photos. Get an exact guest count. Call the ones that haven’t responded. 1 day before the party: Decorate any indoor areas if party is at home. (save outdoor decorating for the day of the party) Prepare food that can be made ahead. Party day: Pick up the cake. (Don’t forget the candle and lighter!) Prepare the rest of the food. Enjoy the party!
