It is going to be Yovannahs birthday soon. She is going to be 7 on 6 June. She has been
talking about it for months. It is unbelievable how much birthdays mean for
little girls. They always look so much forward to it. I ‘ve always tried to make an effort to give them a nice
memorable day too. Because I don’t want to take for granted that God has added
another year to their life. Some people unfortunately don’t get the chance to
see their child get older and so I want to celebrate their life every year
again. And it is always nice for the chidren to feel special on their special day.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to give them a lot of parties. But I always still try to do something small
and special like going to Mc Donalds, the movies or swimming, just the girls
and I. And I usually have some balloons and decorations up and a cake
Especially Yovannah has not had a lot of parties. She has
had two small parties so far with about 2- 4 friends and then her sisters. So
it would be nice if she could finally have herself a nice party, a little
bigger. I definitely would love to do that for her. But I’m not sure yet if
that will be an option. Yovannah has quite some friends at school and also
where we live.
We have been thinking of ideas for when we decide to do a
party at some location.
The ideas that we like and that her friends would probably
like are :
Swimming pool party
A lot of her friends have swimming lessons and my girls have
been going to swimming lessons too.
And this party would then be at the place where the girls
have their swimming lessons. T he prices are 8,50 euro per person, including food and drinks.
Pony party
The smallies have started a course called ; ‘pony buddies’
and they really love horses a lot.
One of her friends is doing horse riding and another one
loves horses too.
This party would be at the Kids farm where the smallies do
their ‘pony buddies’ course.
I have not looked into information on this yet so I am not
sure what the prices are.
Ballorig party
This is a party at an indoor play center. Ixora had a few
friends (four) there on her last birthday. And she had a party like this in
Ireland before. They are always a big success . And for the parent(s) it is quite easy
because the center takes care of everything. The kids play and get drinks and
food and they have cake. The prices are from about 10 euro per person.
Another idea would be to just try and do a party at home but
even though I used to love organizing parties in the past, I am not sure if I would want to
host a party for more than 3 guests. It is a lot of work when you do it at home
and just a lot of work doing it alone.
So I think it then would have to be an unofficial party on the
afternoon of her birthday and hopefully the weather is good and our bouncy
castle has been shipped to us by my mum, so the children can play on that. So
the neighbor kids can come and she can ask one friend.
Because I definitely am not looking forward to the stress of
a party at home so we will see. I am going to be sure to give her a nice day
though whatever we do.
She also really wants to go to Moviepark Germany. She just told me that she would love to do her
party there. I guess maybe if we would go as a family but taking kids there is
ofcourse not an option.
I am sure that we will find something nice to do and turn it
into a memorable day. We will see...
What do you do for the birthdays of your children ? Which of
these parties would you prefer ?
I would love to hear from you.
