Whether you celebrate a birthday in December or a kids’ holiday party, “The Nutcracker” is an excellent theme, especially if your kids take ballet as an activity and happen to have a role in the performance.
For an invitation, use nutcracker printables or stickers on heavy card stock. Use a tulle ribbon to attach a small card to the Nutcracker that provides the party details.
Giving kids time to dance, to coordinate a dance together, and freely enjoy this time will be both creative and fun. Make Sugar Plums and serve with hot cocoa! [more…]
A face-painter for your party?
Our entertainer/venue profiles answer the questions you have when booking your next party.
If your kid was born around the holiday season, they generally have a holiday birthday party, their birthday gifts mingle with the Christmas ones, and there really is no unique birthday celebration.
Even if it isn`t possible every year it is good to shake things up a bit and throw a unique party in December. Have a Faux Summer Beach Party. An Around The World party will be great, and educational too!
Planning ahead of time for a birthday party completely unrelated to a holiday theme will be quite manageable, especially if you take it to an outside party venue. [more…]
If you are trying to teach your birthday kid the idea of philanthropic giving or if kid really doesn`t need any more stuff, you could say so in the invitation.
Make sure to choose a charity before the party and write a line about the mission of the organization in the invitation.
The more involved your kid is in this decision, the better he will grasp the idea of philanthropic giving this season. [more…]
Have our poet write a rhyme for your party invitation. He also writes rhymes for thank you notes!
