Invites
Try to give other parents as much notice as possible. I personally have found that there are usually a few children with birthdays around the same time, so if you can provide your invitations first this is a bonus.
You could always combine the party with another child, then you can invite more people and share the cost. An idea would be to hire a church hall or village hall for a few hours if you are sharing the party. Otherwise, your home is generally fine for up to about 10-15 children (obviously it depends on the time of year as well, in the summer we sometimes go into the garden if we can).
Once the deposit has been received, the pre-printed invitations with all the party details on them will be sent out to you, ready for you to send out to the guests.
The Party
PLEASE NOTE - If you are thinking of inviting extended family (aunts, grandparents etc), please can you ask them to come once our part of the party is finished. Likewise if other parents want to stay - that is fine if there is a seperate area (ie kitchen / conservatory / dining room / garden) they can be away from the party please. Otherwise there are usually too many people about and the children get limited for space to play games and get distracted.
If you or any of the other guests are smokers, then please be considerate as some of the children may not be used to a smoking atmosphere and it could start up asthema / coughing fits etc.
I will arrive approx. 15 minutes before the start of the party to set up the Karaoke machine and get everything ready. I will bring a plastic table cloth with me, and disposable aprons for the children to wear to protect their clothing if they are doing craft making.
The craft making works better if it can be done on the dining room table to give the girls more space. If a large table or paste table is not available, then the floor can be used but this can sometimes restrict space for games whilst the crafts are drying.
The children get to take home any crafts made during the party (if applicable), plus their own party bag which contains themed goodies.
Depending on which time slot you would prefer, I would suggest allowing an extra hour either before or after for food and the birthday cake. Please bear in mind if you feed them before we come, that we will have them jumping and dancing around - dont over feed them or they may be sick!!!! Not nice!
I suggest half way through a quick drink and the toilet especially for the little children or when its really hot etc. We dont actually stop the party and break for this, its just whilst we are going from one activity to another.
These parties are available within 20 miles of Strood (Kent), outside of this a 50p per mile travel charge will apply to cover petrol costs.
Please book early to avoid disappointment.
