Birthday is one of the most beloved and desired holidays for every person. Children are looking forward to this day with special impatience, so parents have to make a lot of effort to hold the holiday. After all, I do not want to disappoint the child on the only day of the year, which he was waiting for.
Instructions
Step 1
With every birthday, the child grows up exactly one year, and every year the perception of the birthday changes, therefore, when planning the next celebration, start from the age of your child. It's no secret that the birthday of a three-year-old will be significantly different from the birthday of a 13-year-old. But both of them will be eagerly awaiting guests. There is a rule that the number of guests at a child's birthday should be equal to the number of years of age. Explain this rule to your child and invite him to make a list of prospective guests. Prepare and send invitations to guests. This should be done slightly in advance, preferably 2-3 weeks before the holiday, so that guests have time to buy a gift and to make changes to their plans.
Step 2
Don't confuse a children's birthday party with an adult feast. Food, snacks, cakes, drinks - this does not play a major role at a children's birthday party. Therefore, try to prepare dishes that children will definitely like, and which will be convenient to eat with their hands, without fear of getting dirty. Sausages in dough, small pies with interesting fillings, muffins, canapes of vegetables and fruits - children will like such a treat more than some complicated salads or bulky pies. Much more children will be attracted by the entertainment attached to the festive table. Organization of children's leisure time at a birthday party is one of the most difficult tasks, and if you are not sure that you can handle it, then it is better to invite special animators or a clown. Or you can just arrange a holiday in a place where leisure is available as a free app. A children's cafe, a play pavilion, a swimming pool, a cinema and maybe even a fire department. Find out which organizations offer children's birthday parties in their list of services. You will definitely find something interesting.
Step 3
But you can try to cope on your own. It is difficult, but not impossible. Depending on the age of the child and the number of guests, prepare a cultural program of ideas and competitions. There is no need to come up with something very complicated. One joint activity will give children much more pleasure than a lot of useless entertainment. Invite the girls to bake a cake or pancakes, the boys will also willingly take part in this. The joint production delicacy will seem to children on this day more delicious than any culinary masterpiece. Prepare small bags of sweets and small toys in advance for your child to distribute to guests before leaving as a thank you for the visit. No one can give you guarantees that you will not get tired on this day, but this is not some ordinary day. This is your child's birthday, which he will remember all year. Until his next birthday comes.
