Birthday Party Tips & Party Planning
Great ideas and tips from Moms and party planners that will help make your next birthday party a success.These tips and planning ideas may
seem basic, but they really work! I remember when my kids were
younger
I
served the cake right after the kids arrived for the
party - then had to deal with all the sugar craziness. But a
friend told me to move the cake and ice cream to the end of the party
and it made all the difference in the
world. Such a simple thing, but it made all future
parties run smoothly. Here are some other great tips from our
readers.

party planners can benefit from your tips.

A good rule of
thumb is to invite as many guests as the age of your child.
A piñata is always fun! Have the smallest kids go first and the sluggers at the end so everyone gets a turn to try and hit the piñata. Give the kids bags before they start to put candy in. Have a 10 second rule that the kids have to wait 10 seconds to grab candy after the piñata has been opened. Get a phone number on where you can reach parents as the kids are coming in. This way if there is an accident or you need to send one of them home you have a correct number.
2 hours is usually
enough time for a party for a grade school child. |

Write out a schedule for the party
in 15 minute segments.

the invitation so guests who RSVP won't have to ask for "Billy's
mom". Janet - NY
