I wanna start a tradition of having Eid party and focus on the kids. This is going to be my first year doing this, I was thinking of the following and would like your input and suggestions.
Venue : A local park (we have a lot of parks in the city and there are certain picnic areas for rent which can accomodate 50-100 ppl). Should I choose a park with a playground or one with ducks and larks and a lake?
Food : I am thinking pizza (coz I am not in a capacity to cook much so will order this), wings, pasta ???
Dessert : Cupcakes with Eid toppers and wraps, Kunafah cones (if I can get kunafah dough where I live), and Shahi tukray
Gift bags : Customized gift bags according to age and gender but wrapped with eid stationery
Decor : Should I do it ???
Invitations : Thinking of facebook or emailing invitations. I guess time is too short for mail in invitations
Dress : Should it be eid attire or should I mention to have kids in regular clothes so they can go out to play
Any other suggestions.
Also eid might be falling on a Sunday and it might not be doable to have this party on that day itself. Would it be ok to do it the next Sat ?? Muslims have 3 days of Eid, does it even seem right ?
How many hours is enough for this party 4 or 5 or less ?
include chips packets also, toddlers love them. i think casual clothes will be more comfortable for kids and parents both, if kids are slightly older thn you can play games n can give gifts to the winner.
Nj most ppl we are inviting don't have any family around. We only got each other. kids are between ages of 2 months and 4 years. Only 2 kids are there who are 10 and 12.
Should I still do games? If so what kind of games?
I think I am gonna start doing themed eid parties once he understands and can enjoy them more.
