What ever [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/doudounemoncler.php]moncler[/url] happened to the "come over for a slice of cake" birthday party? Remember when it was perfectly acceptable to have a few toddlers over without an entire petting zoo in your backyard? From kids who hear "Happy Birthday" sung by the cast of a Broadway musical to sweet (or not so sweet) 16 parties that equal the cost of tuition for a year of college, kids' birthday parties seem to us to have gone well over the top. To a lot of people, it's not just about keeping up with the Jones', it's about crushing [url=http://www.mquin.com/gzparis.php]giuseppe zanotti pas cher[/url] them [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/doudounemoncler.php]moncler pas cher[/url] when it comes to throwing the coolest birthday party for your perfect little Dinosaur-lover or princess fairy. And don't even get started on the favors. That idea should have trashed (along with all of the junk) a long time ago. It's not that we're haters - we love parties. It's just that we're advocating a simpler way. You know the old story about the kid who gets piles of gifts but plays with the box instead of the shiny new toys? It's the same philosophy. Ever notice the power of a simple water balloon or a piñata? Kids don't need a lot to make them happy. They just need their friends, a few treats, and the permission to [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/louboutinpascher.php]louboutin[/url] have fun. So when the next birthday rolls around, resist the urge to book the Kid-o-Rama and go old school. Just because it's back-to-basics doesn't mean it's boring.
Five Simple Rules for A Simply Sensational Birthday Party
1. Ditch the Favors.
Please. As parents ourselves, we can attest to the [url=http://www.ilyav.com/uggsoldes.php]boots ugg pas cher[/url] fact that the kids really don't give a hoot about these little throwaways. Nobody really ever needed another bouncy ball from the dollar store. They are a waste of your time and money and just end up in a landfill.
2. Go Simple.
Kids love simple games. Tag, duck-duck-goose, pin the tail on the donkey, or whatever floats their boat. You don't need to hire a magician to see the magic that is created when kids get together and are allowed to [url=http://www.thehygienerevolution.com/barbourparis.php]barbour paris[/url] run around and have fun.
3. Give It [url=http://www.mquin.com/gzparis.php]giuseppe zanotti[/url] a Theme.
Themes really do wonders. Sarah's throwing a low-key, backyard birthday for her soon-to-be five-year-old [url=http://www.mnfruit.com/louboutinpascher.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] with a "monster [url=http://www.mquin.com/gzparis.php]giuseppe zanotti sneakers[/url] truck" theme. The kids will play pin the license plate on the monster truck, red light/green light, and then cool off in the monster truck carwash (aka the sprinkler). If you've got a princess in your house, get some glitter nail polish and paint all the little toes and fingers and you'll have a happy group [url=http://www.moncleroutletosterblade.com]moncler outlet[/url] of little girls.
4. Don't Think You Need to Be Martha.
The kids aren't going to realize that you whipped up that icing from scratch so unless you love baking, make it easy on yourself. Get a boxed cake. Same goes for food. You don't need to be carving flowers out of carrots to impress kids. They're thrilled if they see a pizza [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] delivery man.
5. Invitations.
It's the invite that counts, not what it looks like, so don't fret over embossed invitations. Email is easy for everyone and sites like evite.com make it foolproof to send out invites. Don't be afraid to express yourself and be funny - one mom even skipped evite and just put the date and time of the party in the subject [url=http://www.mquin.com/saclancel.php]lancel[/url] line. Did the kids care? Nope. They were just happy to find themselves together on a rainy Saturday afternoon.
