[-]For the night owls: DS's b-day party is tomorrow (4-5 yr olds). 3:30 - 5:30. Planning on having fruit platter out when kids arrive (for after school snack). Will also be serving chicken nuggets and french fries (don't knock it, kids love it and not many other choices at this venue!) -- what time to set them out, when to do cake? TIA

[-]4yo bday party tomorrow. 20 kids. Will have bouncy castle and 3 games (ball toss, put-put golf, something else), nice prizes to win (3 prizes per child). I'm trying to think of a way to keep the kids playing. Could just do one game at a time, but that's a lot of kids to wait in line. Or could give a ticket for every time you play, and you need 3 tickets to get a prize? Would love your thoughts. TIA

my opinion is that is going to be chaos. Why not just let the kids jump in the bouncy castle and run around? why so organized?
[ Reply | Options ]Personal preference, I guess. I can't stand parties where the kids just run around screaming. Just trying to figure out a way to have the games going to give them something to do -- my original idea was to just have the games set up as stations so the kids could come and go, play what they want, etc.

OP: So ... the idea behind this was kind of like a carnival theme. I already bought the prizes, 3 per child, no goodie bag. No one thinks this will work? I was just thinking of having the stations running, with the prizes taped behind us on the wall, child plays, picks prize, we stamp hand so we know he got one prize from that game.

i did birthing center for #1. now ttc #2 and am interested in home birth too. so i'm watching as well. no flames here!
[ Reply | Options ]We did birthing center (Eliz Seton) for #1. When we were considering homebirth for #2, we talked to the midwife who delivered 1. Said we weren't sure whether we were comfortable with a homebirth. She said, "you already had a homebirth --- your midwife will have all the resources we had at ES." That kind of sealed the deal for us.

You're so wrong, happy person whose body is not a temple and who accepts herself, sagging breasts and all, and looks really good for her age. Better than you will, with your fake boobs and botoxed face. And your DH will be screwing someone else, no matter what you do!

why are some people so offended when one ask a question like this. I asked a question about how to lose my 7 extra lb few days ago on UB, someone was giving me advices of accepting myself. What a BS!
