to send ds to b'day party with present but no card? Party in 45 min

[ggirl]

we don't give a toss about cards in this house so wouldn't bother me
for 8 yr old

I'd get your 8 yr old to
make a card

fine

yes, make a card. Much better than a bought one IMO

Yes I am sure the birthday child will be happy they have got a present and not be bothered about a card either.

Make a card. But I've done it the other way round when I've forgotten to buy a present - nip out and get something and deliver it at the end of the party, apologising and pretending I accidentally left it at home on the way to drop off.

We're going to a party tomorrow and not taking a card. Think it's fine. DS had his party in Feb, and got maybe two or three cards. We had 19 kids there.

Nobody'll notice the lack of a card. Just label the present so they know who it's from.

I have to force my kids to feign interest in the birthday cards. Up to the age of about 100 10 they are only interested in the present.

great ds would make no effort at all if I asked him to make a card
would look worse than no card i think

ok now have to find wrapping paper

I'm not sure any child has ever even looked at a card once the present has been handed over!

Just sent him with a present and a smile!
