  • MAKE THE NEXT BIRTHDAY PARTY EASY ON YOURSELF

3
That special day is rolling around again your
youngsters birthday along with all the
planning and anticipation that surround this
momentous occasion.
4
Dont let preparing for what should be a fun and
happy event get you mired in stress and tiresome
details.
5
Here are a few pointers for crafting a memorable
day without causing yourself undue headaches.
6
  • HEAD OUTDOORS

7
  • At-home parties can be a super and economical way
    to celebrate your childs special day.

8
  • However, planning indoor games and crafts can be
    a bit time-consuming, and games of Simon Says,
    musical chairs or follow-the-leader dont ever
    take as much time as you may think.

9
  • Holding your event at an outdoor playground or
    beach (think a lot of supervision) gives you a
    nice big block of easy entertainment.

10
  • Keep an eye on everyone, pause for food, cake and
    present-opening, and before you know it, a
    successful birthday event is at a happy end.

11
  • If your youngster is a sports enthusiast,
    consider an ice rink, soccer field or swimming
    pool for the event.

12
  • Another fun way to keep guests entertained in
    nice weather is to have a scavenger hunt, hire a
    moon walk or set up a back yard obstacle course.

13
  • STAGE A SUPER SLEEPOVER

14
  • Once your child and his friends are old enough,
    consider having a sleepover party. But dont
    expect to get a lot of sleep.

15
  • It may sound a bit wild having a bunch of kids
    bunking at your house for the whole night

16
  • but if you stick to a reasonable number, a
    sleepover is a pretty easy shindig to stage.

17
  • Most youngsters are just excited to be spending a
    whole night giggling and watching movies with
    their pals

18
  • so you wont have to worry about extensive
    game, craft and activity planning.

19
  • Keep the food simple pizza and cake are always
    big hits.

20
  • You can have a lights-out time, but be prepared
    for some residual whispering and giggling for a
    while.

21
  • A key component to a successful sleepover is to
    specify a pick-up time for the next morning.

22
  • Whip up some pancakes or just take the easy route
    with donuts and hot chocolate and then have them
    packed up and ready for their parents arrival.

23
  • A sleepover birthday party with a small group of
    close friends can truly be a treasured memory for
    your child.

24
  • KEEP THE
  • CHOW SIMPLE

25
  • Remember, this is a kids party, so food doesnt
    have to be particularly fancy.

26
  • It is, however, fun to tie in the menu with the
    partys theme.

27
  • A few pizzas are fine for the main course and you
    can make the food presentation fun by serving it
    up on colorful dishes.

28
  • Older kids can have fun preparing the food,
    whether its building their own tacos or
    sandwiches

29
  • going wild with an ice cream sundae bar or
    decorating their own cupcakes.

30
  • Serve finger foods and bite-sized pieces to
    minimize clean-up afterward.

31
  • DONT HAVE IT AT HOME

32
  • Although it may be slightly more expensive to
    hold the festivities at an alternate venue

33
  • the savings in time, game planning and food
    preparation are well worth the extra few dollars.

34
  • Not all birthday party venues are created equal
    and not all are prohibitively expensive.

35
  • Consider your youngsters interests and solicit
    her input as to where she and her friends would
    have the most fun

36
  • and then see where this falls within your
    budget.

37
  • Day camp facilities like Maplewood Day Camp are
    great because they provide a wide variety of both
    indoor

38
  • and outdoor activities from rock climbing to
    bumper boats and moon walks.

39
  • Whatever party route you choose, try to just
    relax and enjoy this special day with your child.

40
  • Let your kids enjoy the birthday party experience
    at Maplewood Summer Day Camp.

41
  • Experienced staff will keep your child both safe
    and busy with arts and crafts, games, water
    sports, gymnastics and more.
