Plan your Kudos Birthday Parties

The first thing you want to do is identify what your child loves or loves to do. Do they have their favorite character on the television or do they love cars or planes? Maybe your child is a sporting enthusiast or they maybe a little older and want a more sophisticated birthday parties.
Spend some time and come up with a theme that can be carried though the party. Make notes of everything you are going to need to turn your home or venue into that perfect experience. Remember plates, napkins, drinking cups, prizes and more.




With a theme in place, you are going to want to purchase some invitations. The invitations should be fitting of the theme. Put a guest list together. Remember that if you are working to a budget, consider the price per head cost to ensure that it comes in within your budget. You may have to narrow down the guest list slightly to ensure that you stay within your budget at all times.
Now you are going to have to start looking for a venue or location for the birthday party and create a things to do manual too. The venue should be chosen based on the theme. An outdoors sporting theme may be better if held in an open park, while a disco themed party is best held in a hall or at home. Contact the venue as soon as possible, giving yourself plenty of time to find an alternative venue should they be booked. Remember the sooner you get you’re booking in, the more likely you will secure the venue you feel is the best match.
Once your invitations have been completed, your venue booked and your theme chosen, you should look for some decorations. Decorations can also be chosen based on theme. Having a sporting party? Then consider posters of famous athletes, some sporting games like Arcades and items around. Maybe hold it at a football field or open park.
Decorations can be anything from balloons to posters to items. Choose carefully, remembering the age of the child and what you would like to see if it was your party.
Consider hiring some entertainment. You cannot keep all the children occupied at all times. Not to mention you are going to be checking on food and keeping an eye on events, you also do deserve a chance to sit down and relax for a few minutes. Hiring entertainment can keep the children busy and engaged for an hour or two. The entertainment you choose should be based on the theme and the age of the child.
