Preparing for a children's birthday is a headache for many parents. You need to try to take into account all the moments and nuances so that the holiday becomes truly unforgettable and fun for the child. There are no trifles at such an event, so the first step is to think over original invitations.
DIY invitations
When making invitations for a child's birthday, you need to take into account the age of the birthday person. If he is too young to prepare invitations on his own, his parents should help him. For example, calling relatives for the first birthday of a baby, you can buy ready-made postcards in the store, and make a print of the child's palm or feet inside. It will be very touching and will remain a good memory for years to come. And under the "autograph" of the child it is worth signing the time and place of the holiday.
With an older child, you can make invitation cards from cardboard or colored paper. For example, make a butterfly postcard. For manufacturing, you will need thick paper, scissors, a simple pencil and paints. You need to draw a butterfly on the canvas, its size is chosen individually, but it is better to be larger in order to place some text on the postcard. Next, you need to cut out the butterfly and decorate it. This can be done with paints or by sticking on beautiful beads, pieces of colored paper, glitter. In general, there is complete freedom of creativity. By the way, to make it interesting for the children who receive the invitations, you can make two small cuts in the middle of the postcard and insert some kind of souvenir there. For example, a straw lollipop that you can buy at a candy store. According to the principle of a butterfly postcard, you can cut any figurine or cartoon character out of cardboard.
If you plan to hold a themed holiday on your child's birthday, the invitations should be chosen in the appropriate style. If there is a pirate party, a postcard in the form of a ship or a piece of map with the exact coordinates of the birthday person's house and the date of the holiday is a great option.
If the child will personally present invitations to his holiday, you can tie each postcard to a balloon. Perhaps this option is a little troublesome, but it will create a festive mood in children in advance.
Order invitations
If, for some reason, parents cannot make invitations to the holiday on their own, you can make them to order. Many photo studios make postcards with photographs of the child. There is an option to make invitations even easier: choose one photo of the child and ask to print it as many times as there will be guests at the party. And on the back side, sign the place and time of the birthday.
