You can never trust Sydney weather, so planning a backup in case of rainy weather is a must, especially if there are outdoor activities included. Your safest bet is to organise your party indoors, whether it’s in your home or in a hall, and make sure any activity you plan to host outdoors, can easily be brought back inside if need be.
Speaking of toddlers, we think we’ve all seen how quickly one of them can crawl or waddle away, unbeknownst to their parents. At a party, a young child can easily get lost with the big kids and might get hurt during rougher play. Help keep parents calm and unstressed by having a playpen available. This way, you’ll be able to keep any toddlers in one section, without worrying about any escapees.
Kids love lollies. It doesn’t even matter what lolly is in front of them most of the time; if it’s full of sugar, they want it, and they really love it. So a good heads up for any kids party is to keep lolly bags safely hidden away from the attentive eyes of children. You really, really don’t want to have them within reaching distance of kids. They’ll just go crazy over them, refuse to eat normal food, end up with a crazy sugar high and goodness knows what else.
Trust us, you don’t want to make this mistake.
Instead, hand out the lolly bags at the end of the event, as each child leaves and as a little party favour to thank them for coming.
When parents are busy running around after children, it can be difficult to find a chance to sit down and eat, and as we all know, the food is really, the best part of every party. So to keep your guests’ bellies full, have plenty of finger food available. This will also be good for children too, because how often have you seen a group of kids remain patient enough to actually sit and eat?
