Birthday party help

8 replies

Need help as worrying about my sons forthcoming birthday. What age do they stop having all class parties? How many children do you invite? What if no one wants to come? What if like my DS they're not friends with anyone in particular but gets on with everyone?

Are you in the UK? I don't really think it is the right time to be planning birthday parties Confused

In the UK it's your bubble only?

Just so what feels right for your son. I would say from age 6/7 I would start to do a smaller party. Probably some sort of activity with 6-8 guests. You can do a themed party at home with crafts or lego, or take them to lazer tag or bowling or zoo trip. Depends on your budget. There is no reason not to invite the whole class if you son still wants that.
Good luck

I don't think group parties will be allowed for some time unfortunately, when is the birthday?

Obviously I am talking about when the time IS ok - not when it's not. I've no plans to have an illegal gathering!

Thanks YoComo is it the done thing for kids to have their parents take and stay with them or would I offer transport?
