Questions to ask yourself for your kid's birthday party

Do you think well in advance when it comes to celebrating your kid’s birthday? You might just say, “who wouldn’t”? Well, you should keep a check on some questions that will help you decipher whether all things are done for your little one’s birthday or not.  

What questions?  

Check them below and see if they can help you plan or not. 

1. How far is the birthday? 

Planning well in advance is a good sign for the parents. If your child’s birthday is more than a month far, you need not worry because you have ample amount of time to you. If it is a month far, you should start jotting down what needs to be done and start making the lists.  

2. Who are to be invited? 

Depending on your own budget and strength, you should decide how many kids can you handle at the party. Because no matter what, there’ll be adults also (family and friends) and you would have to see your budget in order to get the best of the best for that lot. Don’t go overboard because then you will trim down the quality at some point. Hence, keep the quantity or the number of invitees less.  

3. What should your budget be?

Your budget is one big thing that you need to keep a check on. From the birthday dresses for girls to the food on the table, return gifts, decoration and everything else should be included. Keep a slight extra amount in case the budget goes out of hand.

4. What should be there on the menu?

Talking about a kid’s party, food is definitely the center point of it all. Because when kids are hungry, good food is what keeps them getting on your nerves. Make sure you have a kids-friendly menu that doesn’t let the children dirty their kids fashion dresses or spill around.   

5. What would the activities be? 

Games, games and games - in order to keep the kids entertained, you should have a list of games that’ll keep them enjoying the party rather than cribbing, sobbing or getting into fights with one another. Anything - from the passing the parcel to hide & seek and so many more, you can even have newer games with the kids slightly elder (about 6-7 years old).

Birthday coming up? - things to keep in mind for the party

Who said anything about kid’s birthday not being a big affair? It is probably the biggest event in a family for which everyone comes together. Not only do the relatives and other family members, friends, neighbors and more attend the occasion with full enthusiasm. All that a host needs to do is - plan the party carefully in order to leave no scope for improvisations or flaws.  

For every parent who wants to be there for their baby and is looking for some tips to plan the birthday party of their little one, this blog is the one place for you.  

1. Make a budget    

Yes!! The very first thing to do here is to make a budget. Include every small thing (exceptions are always left out for the last minute) that you can think of in the same. From the invitation cards to the birthday dress for baby boy or girl, the menu, venue, and everything else should up there.  

2. Make the necessary plans and bookings     

As you’ll notice, the big fat birthday parties are generally hosted elsewhere and not at home because of the number of people coming in. Hence, if you too are thinking of something like this, do make the necessary arrangements and bookings on time so that you don’t miss out on having that particular venue because somebody else booked it and reasons like these.  

3. Pick a theme for the party    

When it comes to a “kids affair”, there are so many unsaid necessary things and picking a theme for the birthday party is one of them. Whether you choose his/her favorite cartoon theme or a movie theme like Finding Nemo, Moana or something else, do pick a theme and abide by the same.  

4. Have things to do and to eat as well    

Plan the evening well with lots of activities for the little ones that can keep them engaged throughout the time and good food for all the age groups. Food is something that everyone looks up to when it is about a party. Make sure you do that well.  

We hope you plan the birthday party well. In case of any suggestions or questions, do let us know in the comments below.
