The Baby and Toddler Guide

Put some bling in your birthday party!

It can be tough to keep kids' parties fresh. Sure, there's nothing wrong with the tried and true, but you can easily mix it up and throw a party to remember. Introduce a crafty challenge at your next party, and watch the kids - who are naturally creative and curious - blossom!

They'll love the chance to make something on their own, and they will look forward to the event knowing they'll be doing something fun.

Successfully incorporate a crafty task into your party:

choose an age appropriate activity
be prepared and have all the materials you'll need ready ahead of time
keep everyone in the same work area and hand out smocks for the budding artists if it's messy
provide guidance so everyone understands what they're doing... they'll enjoy themselves much more
give 'em space! and keep an eye out for anyone needing assistance
you can't rush Picasso - allot enough time for your activity. have other games planned and ready in case everyone finishes in a hurry
since part of creating is tidying up afterwards, give the artists tips on how to stay organized as they go... and perhaps get a helping hand for clean up afterwards
bring in a professional. They'll specializes in the activity, have abundant supplies, and handle everything seamlessly start to finish - leaving you some time to chill and enjoy the party too!
