So DD's 5th Birthday this weekend. It's a sports hall hire wih bouncy castle and mini soft play. There will be 30 children there. Most roughly between 4 and 7. There will be 7 toddlers/babies. It starts at 4.15pm for 1.5 hours.
My food plan is this...
Ham sandwiches and cheese sandwiches. (Catering for half a sandwich per child. )
6 bowls of snack crisps
Marshmallow top hats (two packets of marshmallows)
Chocolate crispy cakes with butterfly sprinkles
36 confetti cupcakes with character wafers on top or Haribo jellies.
A watermelon cut up
700g punnet of strawberries and a punnet of grapes cut up.
Two packets of party rings.
The birthday cake (rainbow jazzier one from asda with my little pony figures on top and mini bunting) will be presented fairly early and then cut up and put on the table.
Drinks will be juice cups with diluting juice back up. Tea/coffee/coke/sparkling water for adults.
Party games will include musical statues, best dancer, pass the parcel and what's the time Mr wolf? Prizes will be medals apart for pass the parcel.
Easter eggs will be given out as party favours on the way out.
My questions are....
Is this enough food? Should I bring some sausage rolls as well?
The cake serves 20+ bearing in mind there will be at least one adult per child and in many cases both parents as a lot are our friends should I buy an extra cake just for cutting up?
