Mommies Tipid Tips for Birthday and Binyag Preparation

[chiqmom]

how do you reduce the amount of guests? i want a kid's party sana so gusto ko yung kids and their parents lang invited but what if magtampo yung mga oldies?

[hunny_ally]

^last year during M's gymboree party, I only invited those with kids 5yo and below. Hindi na invited other relatives (we're a big family). i think the only oldie relatives we invited were my parents and my lola. they understood it naman since they know it's a children's party and they wont enjoy it. Magpasabi ka na lang that you're having a children's party and you cant invite them. Para at least they wont think you kept them in the dark.

^thanks als. paano sa invitation, yung kid's name lang ang nakalagay? we're a big family din e. .

[pinkpotato]

^ ya yung kid lang. or baka pwede mo tawagan o puntahan. tapos you can mention during your convo na ayun nga kids lang invite. sabihin mo, "naku mabobore lang kayo! padalhan ko na lang kayo spaghetti." hahaha. iba kasi nagtatampo but im sure theyll understand.

^^gawin mong ticket style sis, indicate mo kung ilang kiddie at adult seat ang reserved para sa kanila. Ganyan ginagawa ko pag hindi sa house ang party para controlled ang # of guests.
I put "We have reserved 1 kiddie seat & 1 adult seat for you" parang ganyan.

[chiqmom]

^thanks sis. ganyan na lang siguro gawin ko din.


@pinkpotato, oo yung kid na lang ilagay ko sa invitation para d masyado obvious na hindi sya for all. hehe

isa pa, how young should the kids be? planning to invite kids who are 1 to 10 years old lang. yung mga 11 and up d na sila kids no? i mean d na nila kinconsider sarili nila as kids diba?

 i haven't tried this yet pero paminsan-minsan may mga well known party suppliers offering deals from groupon sites. why not grab a deal, tipid tip din yun.
