I'm thinking ahead to dd's birthday party, and am starting to make plans. She's in Year One, and will be turning 6, so definitely still at an age where it's standard for the entire class to be invited. We will also want to invite friends from reception who are in different classes this year, and will want to include a few non-school friends.
I'm a bit in shock as I've added up the number, and it is 35 children.
That seems a ludicrous number to me. It will be far too many children for her to even acknowledge everyone who is there. But, I don't know where/how to begin cutting the list without missing out a friend - granted all are not close friends. The party will probably be at a soft play centre, so space is not a factor.
What do the rest of you do, when they're too young to invite only a handful for a special event, but the numbers are silly? I'm only half joking when I think perhaps I should have it at an incovenient time......
