This is an article that I wrote on another web site 4 years ago in regards to a desperate attempt to figure out a party locale for my eldest son's 6yr old birthday party. Oh don't get me wrong I found a ton of places they were just
all so EXPENSIVE. I was let down and going to give up and because we did
not have the money to throw a party at a place for 400 bucks for only 2 hrs
with a limit of 10 friends more costing extra. Then I thought back to my
childhood and remembered hey I never had a party at anywhere but my home.
A pool party every year since Elementary School. A whole bunch of
five/six year olds and a pool with a deep-end did not sound like a good idea
though. But that got me thinking. Why couldn't I throw a party for
him. What was stopping me from getting together his friends and making a
great birthday party. But then came the hard part. Ok I was going
to have the party but what was I going to do as a theme etc. I started
looking on the internet and found not all that much help. A lot of kits
you could buy to throw a cowboy party, or a Disney themed party or
pirates...Lots of things like that. For some reason I wanted something
different and thats when it came to me...I was going to make an around the
world themed party. And as opposed to candy etc as a goody bag I was
going to give a fun facts booklet with some Playdoh to create the Chinese
symbol of friendship, and a packet of crayons for the word search part and crossword puzzle. The party
was a great success. The kids had a blast, the parents just sat
underneath the tents we had set up and chatted and everyone was happy. I
highly recommend channeling your creative side and trying to come up with a
theme all your own. I got so many complements and everyone kept saying
how fresh and original it was. Below is my whole outline for the party I
came up with. Copy it and do the party for yourself or go off on your own
and create your own Amazing party :)...
