TOP TIPS

On planning a great party for under-fives:

‘‘If you are not wanting to have a party at home then hiring a kindy is a great option. The playground can keep kids occupied as well as any toys, dress-up clothes etc.’’ – Gemma

‘‘Don’t plan too much. Just go with the flow on the day and don’t worry if you didn’t get chance to play certain games you had planned.’’ – Beth ‘‘So long as there’s balloons, lollies and cake they don’t really care.’’ – Rebecca ‘‘For my son’s fourth birthday we hired a bouncy castle and it used up heaps of time and energy.’’ – Rachel
