I did the build bear idea it was fun. But they can get overwhelmed in the store so don’t be super if they don’t make the bear themselves.
@Emilie I would never get upset I feel if a child doesn’t want to do something anymore they shouldn’t have to if he needs someone to remove him because he is overwhelmed that’s totally fine with me
If I had a lot of people to attend my child’s event, I really love throwing parties because I can decorate. I can set up the goodie bags, but it’s pointless because I don’t have a lot of people and when I did my son‘s first birthday and I invited enough people they never showed up and it was just me his dad my mom and my sister family
@Niecey I’ve found local mom on here or from facebook and connected with them for partys. The kids grow up together then.
For my son he went downstairs to find our living room floor covered in balloons, presents (wrapping paper really), and he had the opportunity to play with cake. We will probably do similar for my daughter, plus going out for breakfast. I love the build a bear idea.
