Having a party at home, 14 children coming.... Sudden chilling thought

I didn't specify but parents wouldn't assume they could just leave them here would they...????

Do I need to mail/text around???

I would be surprised at a 3yr olds party, however it is probably better safe than sorry on that front!

I wouldn't assume that the parents would think you'd be able to deal with all those kids on your own. Some might stay anyway as personally I think it's nice and cute to watch my son at a party, plus help the host/ess out. But yeah, I'd probably hint, ha.

I would assume parents are going to stay. IME parents don't tend to drop and go until the children are school age and sometimes they don't even bugger off then
Can you hire a local teenager to do teas/coffees? Really takes the pressure off...

Interested in this thread?

I am sure you'll have some parents that have no intention of leaving as well as a few that have no intention of staying! I'd send them all an e-mail.

Really? I would never assume that I could just leave my three year old and bugger off. Surely that would be a logistical nightmare for you.
I think they'd be pretty cheeky to just leave.
