A child's birthday - that truly special time of year that's anticipated from the moment the last one finishes until the morning of the next! Children just can't help but get excited about their big day and of course that leaves the parents with the task of party planning. It may seem quite daunting at times, looking at the many options available for party types and the often hefty costs that come with it. With that in mind, we'd like to share four tips for planning an affordable children's disco party, in the comfort of your own home.
1. Set the mood
Having a disco party at your house avoids venue costs and can be a really unique and fun way to bring the party to life. If the party takes place during daylight hours you'll need to set the mood. Choose a room with low light, or thick curtains. You can even use black sheets or thick blankets to block any light sources. You can grab bargain, colour changing disco lights from many stores, or see if anyone can lend you some. Ambiance, complete!
2. Choose the right music
Depending on the age and interests of the children, you'll need to choose some truly terrific tunes. A CD of Disney classics can be great fun, or how about all the latest releases from their favourite pop stars? You could even see if a friend or relative is willing to play 'DJ' and change the songs at the children's request.
3. Keep it cool
As well as the party itself needing to be 'super cool' for the kids, you must remember that with all that dancing, the children will get very hot. You may want to keep a fan in the corner of the room and make sure drinks are available at all times.
4. Invite the right way
Children love handing out their invitations, so why not make the invites truly special? At PuttyPrint we offer fully themed and personalised invitations, including disco party invitations. For more information don't hesitate to contact a friendly member of our team today.
