Share Party Plans With The Birthday Child
Your birthday child will feel special and more involved
if he or she is included in the party plans including
the theme, food, and games that will be played. Children tend
to change their mind several times so you will want to set a
deadline for the "final decision‟. You may also want to
encourage siblings to share in the celebration so they will
not feel jealous or excluded. Offer them special jobs to do
before and then during the party.
Agree ahead of time to serve a nutritious selection of your child‟s favorite foods. You will want to include a
variety of foods so that even fussy eaters will find
something to their liking. Keep in mind that tastes in foods
differs from one age group to the next and you may want to
try out recipes on your children ahead of time
