Birthdays

Planning birthdays can be a major interest-led way to teach the skill of event planning to your child. Who doesn’t want to plan their own birthday party!?! Between budget, themes, activities, decorations, and menu, there are many factors to consider and walk-through with your child. Who knows! Maybe your child’s appreciation for events hosted by others will grow too! For a simple and easy checklist, check out our blog post about party planning essentials.
