Publisher's Synopsis
Having to entertain 20 excitable children for hours can be a daunting task for even the most organised parent. This book is an invaluable guidebook to the world of children's parties - from planning your child's first birthday bash to managing your teenager's expectations for their 18th birthday. As well as the yearly birthday parties, the book includes advice on other special occasions you may want to celebrate, including christenings. Packed with ideas and tips from both parents and experts, advice ranges from games and entertainers, theme ideas, catering, cakes and party bags to serving alcohol at teenage parties and how to stop furniture getting stained with drink spills! The book helps you live up to the expectations of your child, whether you're on a budget or splashing out, to give them the best party ever. Author, Beverly Davies, has worked in journalism for the last 25 years. For some years she has written on health, family and parenting topics, for which her own two children, now almost grown-up, have provided invaluable raw material.
