Every kid wants a great party for their birthday, and we all know sometimes times are tight and so is the budget. So, here are some ways to organise your kid’s birthday party that they will be thrilled about and will be talking about for months, but will not break the bank.
Pick a Theme
Almost every child has something they are interested in, whether it be a television show or dinosaurs. So, if your child is old enough to answer reasonably, ask them what kind of party they want. If you already know for certain what your child will love, then don’t ask, let it be a surprise!
Invite People
Don’t waste money getting paper invitations and sending them out, use a social media website to invite everyone. Most people will have a social media account and the people that don’t, just call and ask them to come! And always tell people to bring children. This will make your kid’s birthday party more fun for them.
Get Decorations
There are many websites that sell package deals on matching themed decorations and even some have matching paper goods to go with the theme. And remember, some things you can make yourself. Either way, it will look great and you won’t have to spend as much. Don’t forget balloons!
Get a Cake
There are many local grocery stores that have an in-house bakery and can make and decorate a decent size birthday cake. You can choose how they decorate it, so it will go with your theme. If you are on a really tight budget you can make your own cake with coloured icing that matches your theme and just put small toy figurines on top that goes along with your theme.
Gift Bags
Buy some cheap coloured bags and you can get a deluxe bag of candies and maybe some novelty toys. Throw them all in the bag and there you go! There are many party supply stores that have these for cheap as well. You can even buy them online.
Entertainment
Think of some games that children will get a kick out of. This leaves a plethora of options. Be creative, you can even make your own games. Some stores have little cheap party games and you can also find many ideas online and can even order a package of different games!
