Terrific Parties for Kids is a parent’s guide to entertaining children. It provides both mothers and children with wonderful party ideas and plans for dozens of special occasions. There is a valuable chapter filled with helpful hints for party-giving in general, such as beginning parties with an icebreaker activity to get everyone relaxed, including the adults. There are party plans for all occasions, including birthdays, holidays, and seasonal events, in addition to parties for no specific reason at all…just for the fun of it! The write-up for each party activity includes invitation ideas, decorations, games, refreshments, prizes, and party favors. The suggested age group for that particular party is also specified. Carefully prepared plans are provided for eleven parties that children themselves can give, plus an additional twenty parties that mothers can give for children. Numerous illustrations offer further explanation for invitations, decorations and other items such as popcorn cakes, candy totem poles and rockets, kite cookies, flowerpot cupcakes, and ice cream cone clowns. Planning is the key to success, and Terrific Parties for Kids provides a step-by-step guide for achieving that goal. These parties are loads of fun and will provide memorable entertainment for all.
