Ok, ds is 2 next week and as we live near Blackpool and as ds LOVES the beach we decided to meet all his little pals at a quiet spot that we frequent on the beach.
Ive asked them to wear cozzies, bring a bucket and spade and come to play for a couple of hours.
Ive thought of:
- tide times, with only a 6 day prediction available ive kind of worked out that the tide will be going out by the time of the party.
- weather, am watching with interest to see what the weather will be like.
- if its awful the the gazeebo will be set up in our back garden and we will party in there.
- food, ive got party boxes for every one for food.
- water, im taking big bottles to wash sand off hands prior to eating.
- cake, obviously cant cut a birthday cake on the beach so im putting little individual cakes into party boxes.
Phew.......what have i missed???????????????
Is it a really really BAD idea?
I decided that it saves mess in the house, i refuse to pay for a venue and food for 12 2/3 year olds when i can put together scrummy party food myself. The BIG plus of having a summer baby is we can have parties outdoors in the sun and fresh air........
What do you think?
