5 year old party at home

Against my better judgement I've got 8-10 kids coming to our small house. I'm a lone parent (widowed ), quite shy myself and would have preferred to book soft play but don't have the budget sadly. In fact I'd have preferred not to have a party at all but when I gently suggested that my dd (who is very outgoing and sociable, not like me at all) was heartbroken so here I am.

I'm not a natural party organiser by any means and I'm dreading it! I don't feel confident leading games at all and am wondering whether I therefore need to book an entertainer? Please help me structure the party, suggest activities and reassure me it won't be a disaster :(

At one of my DD's parties we did pass the parcel - they really enjoyed this 'old school' game but I had to show them how to play it first!
