Birthday party planning tips
#5 - Invitations
Okay, the party is planned. Now you need to get everyone to the party. Again, include the birthday child in the planning. Have them pick out the cards and fill in the blanks.
Better yet, design the invitations around the theme of the party! Many computers have software that is capable of making cards thanks to printer companies! Frequently you can get free software to make greeting cards included with the greeting card paper.
The internet is loaded with possible pictures or cutouts. Your child could draw something and then scan it in or take it to an office supply store or printer to make copies.
TIP: Be sure you have included the who, what, when, where and R.S.V.P. phone number and R.S.V.P. cut-off date!
#6 - Sure Fire Ways To Get Your Guests To Arrive On Time
One of the biggest problems that accompany a birthday party is getting the guests to arrive on time. Here are some tips to get them there when you want them there!
TIPS:
1.Ask them to be prompt. It sounds simple enough, but the mere act of asking for promptness will assure that more guests will arrive on time.
2.Appeal to the needs and desires of the guests. Tell them that they'll miss something important and fun if they dont arrive on time.
3.Add the word sharp after the start time i.e.: 1:00 p.m., sharp.
4.Send a reminder note home, either through the backpack at school or mail a postcard. Just put a quick note on it like Just a reminder, Jimmys birthday party is Saturday at 1:00. Give us a call and let us know youll be there. Then put your phone number on it and you are good to go!
5.Have the party start on the quarter hour (i.e. 3:15 or 3:45). Studies show that people arrive on time more often, for some reason, on the quarter hour go figure!
#7 - You Can't Go Wrong With A Good Theme
The most memorable birthday parties have a specific theme. Its easy to find plates, cups and napkins that match any theme. Theme party needs to also have decorations such as balloons, streamers, wall and table displays, even the snacks and cake.
Having trouble coming up with a theme for your party? You dont have to go with a commercial theme based on a toy or TV show. It may be hard to find decorations or activities that tie into the show or toy. For example, it would be better to have an animal theme than a Barney theme.
Themes can be: Bungle in the Jungle, Dress Up, 'Im Blue (everything is colored blue), Karaoke or sing along, All Girls Night or All Boys Night, Pirate, Carnival or Circus, Sport Theme, Aliens, Bugs, Western, Hawaiian or Tropical, Mardi Gras, or my favorite - Its Magic! Basically, any profession like fireman, policeman, rock star, fashion model, or sports hero can be made into a party theme.
Check some books in the library on parties or the nearest party supplies store for other ideas.
TIP: Avoid a holiday theme, such as Christmas, unless the birthday boy or girl has suggested this as a theme. You dont want to tie their birthday to a holiday.
