Dress Up Birthday Parties

These are just a few ideas to get you started – but when the parties get started, kids’ imaginations will take over.

Children love to dress up. Dressing up and playing pretend allows kids to imitate adults, and to explore what it would be like to be astronauts, teachers, or even lions and other animals. Dress up parties let kids make their own fun, and, best of all, they don’t require expensive or elaborate props. You could choose to have kids come already dressed up or provide costumes at the party.

Gifts that Keep on Giving: The Present-Free Party

With the wealth of toys, branded junk foods and advertisements flooding the market, kids are inundated with the message that more is better, and plenty is not enough. Birthday parties are ripe for celebrations of consumer goods, but if you dread competitive gift-giving or just too many toys on the living room floor, consider a present-free birthday party. Instead of gifts, party guests bring money or goods, which are then donated to a charity of the birthday child’s choosing. This cuts down on the spending and the sense of being inundated by a tide of unnecessary junk, and will let you focus on other important birthday issues, like just how much sugar your child is ingesting.

That’s Crafty: Making Stickers

Making stickers is a great party activity, combining art with minimum of mess. As Jill Jolton writes at Parenthood.com, this do-it-yourself art project is fun for kids — and inexpensive for adults. But if you won't have time for sticker making, you (or the guest of honor) can create the stickers prior to the party and include the results in the guests' goody bags.
