Ella had her 6th birthday party last month. I was not about to invite 100+ people over (Mexican style), and instead allowed Ella to choose 5 friends to invite to our house. Parents don’t just drop off their children at parties here, and instead the parents stay for the entire duration! So, it is a fun challenge to try to figure out how to keep children occupied so that parents can visit. A lot of hosts here rent jump houses, like this paw patrol jumping castle hire melbourne, but I wasn’t about to go find out how much those cost.
So, instead I came up with a mix of a treasure hunt and a list of games to play! I had “treasure hunt” clues in a jar (“Sleep tight, Ella!”–the bed “Brr….it’s cold in here!”–the fridge), and each clue led to a note that told them a game to play. When they were done with the game, they would choose a new clue and find a new game!
Luckily, one friend’s older sibling showed up, and she headed up the treasure hunt/game…it was hands-free for me!
Did you make the piñata? Because that is impressive. Looks like a fun party!
I think I'm going to copy you for Cole's party – you did an AWESOME job!
