Just thinking along the lines of environmentally friendly, if that is a passion maybe you can theme the party like animals or plants, or flowers (for a girl) and have them dress up as their favorite flower? Then you can decorate with flowers, have a flower cake, make food with edible flowers in it? That could be different! and it's be bright and colorful... Then you could make up some games, not sure what but make them kinda educational. What ever the theme I was just thinking about sustainability... hey maybe a recycled theme LOL you can wrap the pressies in newspaper and use old containers to paint or decorate as an activity and then they can take them home and use them as their special box to write down all the things they are manifesting... Gosh I don't know really, just throwing some ideas out there
We always do a park party... its cheap and you can spend more money on the food and decorations and games. Best thing about it is that you can have different aged kids and they all have fun as it is in a park and the older ones can kick a footy or play cricket etc.
Still have games like pinata, pass the parcel etc but we find that them all just playing in the park is enough and they are not interested in the games!
Weather is the only problem though...
Got your PM, sorry i didnt reply all GREAT here thanks, when are you at work next?
HJ , tastes way better , is healthier and cheaper Than mc Donalds, they do pirate,fairy parties etc.....
a play land of some sort, here we have jumbos and we went there for DS bday last year. It was $10 a year including their party food and balloons etc I just took a cake...easy too
Park, Teddy bears picnic or tea party.... Maybe you could have a little tea party with a plastic tea set etc.....
(the weather is very strange though) DS bday was in nov and rained out...... Whereas the year before it was 35 and my Nanna nearly passed out from thruway in the yard.
how about that new movie tangles.... Maybe invite only 4 or 5 kids and watch the new kids movies, I think at Childs prices for adults too, and have something ready for dinner when you get home....and a cake......
Heather - Tiny Chefs looks great! Although more expensive than gourmet kids in Camberwell.
I had thought about a movie but some of her friends don't have the attention span. And put the 4 girls together and they are T.R.O.U.B.L.E!!!
SJ - yeah, I love a park party. But the weather is too unpredictable at the moment Last year it was over 40 degrees! This year will prob be wet! Glad things are good for you! I'm at work tomorrow and Fri. 830 - 1700 Thurs and 0700 Fri.
We have BOOKED a party people! I relented and booked her in to Play Days at Doncaster. The staff on the phone were great and I've paid the deposit. I'll talk DH into some extra money so she can have a few more kids (she'll def want to invite people from Dance class once she starts that). I'm so glad something has been booked now! Will give out the invites next week and then plan the cake with her in a few weeks. I have two books she can sift through and am sure she will find something she likes!
Ooooo I'm glad to hear that! We are still contemplating a move out there! Maybe in another 18 months or so. But Wallan is a bit far for the guests to travel from here. Especially since at least 5 of the little girls will have dance class in the morning and there is another party the next day!
