Planning Children’s Birthday Parties with Kids Birthday Inytes
We have all been involved in planning birthday parties for children, very often our own. Even if we did not have children, we helped plan our younger sibling’s birthday, or had been roped in to helping do so for a friend of ours, etc. On the outset, we may have been tempted to try and get away with arranging a cake and a few snacks, as well as some games that would entertain children of a specific age, but the fact of the matter is it is a whole lot more complicated than this.
What is the best indicator that you have successfully done a decent job of planning the birthday party? The birthday girl or boy smiling from ear to ear with absolute delight. On the other hand, as children, if your party planning is found to be wanting, she or he will let you know in no uncertain terms.
However, we are all about solutions here at Inytes.com, so we thought we would help you identify how best to make use of our collection of Kids Birthday Inytes to assist you with planning children’s birthday parties so that you get kudos every time.
The Bedevilled Details
After your daughter or son, or the birthday girl or boy in question has helped you identify who she or he wants to invite to her or his birthday party, you usually set about printing names and addressing envelopes to hand these bulk purchase invitations to. Based on the number of invitations you have handed out, you estimate your party needs, like the amount of food and beverages you will need, the decorations, the number of birthday hats and noisemakers, and the mementos that each child will leave the party with. But, what happens when people don’t show up? What happens if you have organized entertainment in the form of a clown or a magician, but most of the children show up late because their parents didn’t know where the venue was exactly? What do you do then, as your daughter or son looks at you with a frown on their special day?
RSVP List
Not to worry, because when you send out Kids Birthday Inytes, not only are they easily dispatched online, but they request recipients to RSVP. Based on those who have responded in the affirmative to attend, you can be reassured that your estimate of the number of attendees and the number of mementos you will need to purchase will be much closer to, if not exactly on the mark. No more wastage of food, or worrying if there is enough of everything so that no friend of your daughter or son is left without enough to eat or drink, or will have to go home without a birthday memento.
Maps for Navigation Assistance
Oh, and about the location of the party, our Kids Birthday Inytes, like all of our Inytes, give you the option to attach a map of the venue that can easily be accessed by mapping and navigation assistance software to help everyone reach the party using the shortest, least congested route available. This way, you will have far fewer delayed arrivals because you were not sure if they understood your over-the-phone directions about exactly where to come to and what the best way to get there was. We find that such minor things can have a major difference, and when it comes to your children and their birthdays, nothing is too small to ensure their happiness.
Children’s Birthday Party Trends
Things sure have changed since most of us were children, and it looks like they are still continuing to evolve when it comes to Birthday Party arrangements for children. While things have certainly gotten a lot more complex, they have simultaneously become finer and more detailed, which is something most children these days really appreciate. Here’s a brief look at some of the trends that birthday parties in this decade have established.
Themed Birthdays
Gone are the days of a fancy cake in the shape of a dollhouse or a racing car being the main attraction of a kid’s birthday party. Now, everything about the party has to centred around the main theme, so if it is going to be dolls or racing cars, there better be paper plates with images of these on them, as well as dolls or racing cars featuring prominently in the decorations, the birthday invitations, the food, the everything, short of having your daughter emerge from a life-size dollhouse, or your son driving up in an F1 car.
Birthday Packs
Small packs of gifts or edibles, or both, are not new to kids’ birthday parties. However, themed cookies and cake pops featuring in these takeaway packs is an important thing. In fact, with the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, and how it has prohibited large gatherings of people, birthday packs have also included small bottles of hand sanitizers, face masks that are designed to be safe and follow the theme of the birthday, and also small puzzles and other brain teasers that the attendees can take back with them to the safety and security of their homes to entertain themselves with. Now, while this may seem to be prompted by the present global scenario that we all find ourselves in the midst of, the idea of having a lot more to engage those who attended the kid’s birthday party celebration once they get home is something that will continue to be a mainstay.
Photo Corners
A photo corner is something that we have seen at weddings and parties for adults for some time now. It looks like this trend has become popular with children’s birthday parties as well. Now, setting up elaborately decorated places where a professional photographer can take pictures of the birthday girl or boy with her or his friends is all the rage with kids. Not only does it give them something fun to do and feel more like a grown up to welcome their guests and take a picture with them, but it also makes for great memories and a beautiful photo album that they can flip through in the years to come.
Live Videogame Sets
With the popularity of videogames, some kids’ birthday parties have incorporated live sets based around popular videogames, giving the children something to immerse themselves into the entire duration of the party. Think of this as a themed birthday that a child would live inside of, until it was time for them to go home. Some children’s parties for older children that have featured live videogame sets have had paintball mazes set up to mimic the birthday girl or boys favorite first person shooter game environment.
These are just a few of the trends that are currently a big hit for children celebrating their birthdays these days. However, if you know of any more, or have created something that you think could just as easily become the start of the next massive thing when it comes to Kids Birthdays, please do let us know.
