    Where? Hungry Jack’s. We had a Thomas themed party, you can have one of their themes or do your own.

    Time/Duration? 5pm - 6.30pm

    How many guests? 8 children & 7 adults.

    Did you combine family with friends or do separate things? Combined but no family ended up coming.

    What worked? Everything it was great. It was cheap, $5.25 a child. The party host set everything up and cleaned up. All the kids had great fun. I made a thomas cake and they stored it for the day. We took nibbles, fairy bread, lollies, chips and they were fine with it. We are going back next year it was so easy and Harrison had so much fun.

    My kids 2nd birthdays are always a disaster for reasons I will not bore you with, so for the twins I took them to a playcentre for lunch, and brought a chocolate cake. I invited 1 friend, and her 4 kids, plus my own 4 kids. I find too many people can get stressful for a 2 year old and a lower key celebration is more my style anyway.

    The twins had a better time at their celebration than my boys did at their parties which ended in tears (me).
