I'm slightly panicked as I've invited 14 kids to my house for DS' 4th birthday. The other parties I've been to have all had entertainers and most were in a hall so I'm not sure if I've got enough/too much planned. I've gone with a dinosaur theme and I have a plan to do something like this:
2pm kids arrive, colouring and dot-to-dots while waiting for everyone to get there.
Organised games - what's the time mr dinosaur? Throw the ball in the t-Rex mouth, pin the horn on the triceratops, (musical dinosaurs if time) pass the parcel (to calm them down).
3ish food - jam, ham and cheese sarnies, crisps, carrot and cucumber sticks, dinosaur biscuits for pudding,
As kids finish eating they can go off and play with the sandpit in the garden (with dinosaurs in it) and other general playing
Another couple of games all together, then line them up and hand out party bags and hope parents take the hint to take them home around 4pm
How does that sound?
When do I do the birthday cake?
What do I do about anyone who brings a younger sibling?
Is that enough food? Have I missed anything obvious?
What other games can we play?
