Birthday Party Checklist for Most Forgotten Party Items
We know that planning a Party can be very stressful and things can be easily overlooked or forgotten. We have come up with a birthday party checklist for the top 10 forgotten items when it comes to the big day!
Candles
Candles are often forgotten to be brought along for the Cake! Make sure to bring a few more than you need, just in case!
Lighter or Matches
Ensure to bring a lighter or matches to light those candles!
Balloons
While not essential, even simple, loose balloons can help to bring an atmosphere of fun! Maybe even bring along some string, too!
Party Bags or Favours
Again, while not essential, a lot of kids love to go home with a party bag! You can keep it simple or you can view our Party Bags HERE!
Sticky Tape
For those on-the-day blunders! A streamer or two might come loose, or maybe your plastic tablecloth won’t stay in place!
Drinks
Plenty of drinks and lots of water that is easily accessible to your guests! These can be kept in a fridge, esky or drink dispenser!
Rubbish Bags
There will be lots of rubbish! Opening presents, unwrapping lollies and even discarded plastic cups! Make sure there is somewhere for your guests to put their rubbish that is not the floor!
Seating
This may seem obvious, it’s amazing how many events lack the seating needed! Even a rug or cushions on the floor for the kids is helpful!
Snacks
Snack, snacks, snacks! Ask your guests to bring something to share, or create some yummy platters!
Games
Those kids have energy to burn! Be sure to have enough entertainment available for the kids (and adults) to all enjoy themselves!
