The $100 Birthday Bash!


Birthdays are special milestones in our children’s lives and as parents we like to make them memorable. Though, that doesn’t mean you have to break the bank to make the day one to be remembered. The key to hosting a successful party and staying within your budget is planning ahead and being prepared. Here are a few tips to throw an exciting birthday bash while keeping the cost under a hundred dollars.

-Create a theme for the party (Pajama party, pool party, animal party,etc.)

-Have the party somewhere free such as your home or a park.

-Plan the party for the middle of the day to avoid the need to serve a meal.
o If you want to serve food, buy finger foods in bulk to help save money.

-Keep the number of kids invited at a manageable number (8 or 10)

-Get creative and make your invites, decorations, and the cake at home!
o Lots of websites offer templates for free- all you have to do is customize and print.
o Plain white cups and plates can be used as craft – kids can decorate according to the party
theme

-As for party favors, just give them one or two items.
o There is no need to go overboard on party favors but give them things they can use such as pencils and stickers
o Have the kids create a craft during the party that they can take home as a memento.

Good luck!
