Another New Year has dawned and there are birthday parties to be planned but I first have to say Happy New Year to all of you!
Whether you are celebrating the first birthday of your child or planning a wonderful theme party for your kid’s 16th birthday, I hope you will be able to come up with super ideas to make this day an unforgettable experience for your child.
As I have mentioned a few times, coming up with ideas for party favours can be quite a daunting task sometimes.
When you plan a theme party for your child’s birthday, you should always include him or her in the planning and preparations as much as possible.
Making friendship bracelets to hand out as party favours will not only include your child in the preparations but teach him/her the value of hand-made gifts and of giving and sharing something of him/herself with the party guests and close friends.
Depending on the age of your child, friendship bracelets can be as simple as a toddler using silver or gold pipe cleaners to thread coloured beads or a teenager planning a more intricate design.
Friendship bracelets need not be expensive, all you really need are a few beads and some shirring elastic for a really quick and easy friendship bracelet.
Beads come in all shapes and sizes these days and I personally like the small square ones with initials. It can lend a special touch to a friendship bracelet if you and your child use these to make a bracelet.
Making friendship bracelets can also double up as a party activity and then you won’t have to worry about finding something to give as a party favour.
Have fun planning your kid’s theme party!
