I had to share this incredible website that I found which is devoted completely (100%) to out-of-control birthday parties:
The site covers everything from defining an out-of-control birthday party to take-the-pressure off ideas. The site even has a list of questions you can ask your kid to help you plan the perfect birthday party for your child.
I’ve certainly never felt that I’ve done TOO much for our children’s birthday, instead I always feel like the chicken with my head cut off, getting ready to the last minute. But I’ve been to a few over-the-top birthday parties, especially 1st birthday parties. I’ve been to a 5 hour first birthday party at a park - which is completely different than a 5-hour hang-out party with close friends and family.
I think you need to always take the kids age into consideration and really go ahead and buy into the fact that not everyone wants to spend their entire day there. Get creative - kids are truly easily entertained, as long as there are activities. It doesn’t have to be fancy - have them paint their own goodie bags before a scavengar hunt. Make sure that being together and having a good time is the main focus and you can’t go wrong, right?
Anyhow, it’s an interesting site, I don’t think I ever imagined I’d find a website devoted to too-much-birthday-
pressure, but it’s great!
