What do I need to remember to do tomorrow for DD's party?

[cece]

She has a party arranged for Sun morning in a Soft Play place. So no games/pirzes to organise.

I have cups, party food boxes and party favours sorted. I plan to go to Tescos tomorrow to buy food - snadwiches, mini sausages, pack of crisps and some sort of mini cake for each child in their box. Also need a birthday cake and candles...

Have I forgotten anything?

drink? I'm sure you haven't forgotten it but you haven't mentioned it...

Black sack or box to take presents and cards home in.

oh yes have drink on my list here.

forgotten bin bags though and will get a big box to transport the food to the party so can use that for presents home...

what else - I have a real nagging feeling....

cake, candles, knife to cut matches to light, napkins to wrap.

balloons

plenty of film/memory on camera and charged up/good batteries

lots of wipes for cake/choccy/tom sauce hands

emergency drink and depending on age emergency change of clothes incase drink gos straight thru in excitement!

dd's was last week..it was fab

oh and ...your DD

Am planning a party for my two girls soon and found netmums really helpful. I hadn't done anything on their site before but found their article on parties excellent. Good luck - hope it goes well.

I stuck sticky labels on the kids with their names, on as I didn't know all the children in dd1 's class all by name

Thanks a big help. Haven't given it a lot of thought since I sent out the invites. Have realised that several children have not replied - so no idea whether to expect them or not. Is it just me or is that rude??? They are 5 so really it is their parents ... Grrrrrr

Like the idea about the name tags - a lot of the boys all look the same to me! LOL

One of the parents has just called me about the party. He thought it was today - he therefroe was phoning to confirm and hour and half before the party! At least his DD is coming! Lets hope the find the place seeing as they had already got the date right!

wrong not right!

how was it?

It was really good.

Everyone had a nice time I think and even better it was fairly stress free apart from a frantic 40 mins this morning making sandwiches!

Unfortunately 4 people failed to turn up Is it me or is that just rude!? One had replied yes and the other three didn't even bother to reply.

:( Grr at the no shows!

Glad the party went will and everyone had a good time.

glad it went well.
we had a friends little boys uncle(follow that?) tell me he was coming to party as girls(his step mum srt of's nieces were coming)..he was invitedd and paid for for last two and didnt turn up..so i was surriesed as i didnt give him an invite this time!..told 3rd party, that i needed to know what food he wanted as id handed menu in last week and party was following day..he said he's pass message on..i frantically ring round letting them no one more coming but dont know food yet...birthday party came..HE DIDNT!!!!
