Do u invite your closest family members with children to your child's school birthday party ?

We don't have any close family members with children, but it would depend on the numbers and dynamic. If you are doing a whole class party for 25 and there are 5 extra family member children (plus parents), no, I'd say that's just too many and I'd do a separate family tea if they were close.

If the birthday party was for say 7 school friends and 2-3 family member children and they knew each other or would blend in well, yes, to save the hassle of an extra party.

If they are totally different ages though, no. Say you're doing soft play with a bunch of 5 year olds, no I wouldn't invite all their 9-10 year old cousins.
