Re: one year birthday ideas
When it comes to kids, its about quantity and never about quality. So be sure to have quantity and as far my suggestions, here they are:
1. Buy balloons for all the kids. They are cheap and yet the most fascinating things in our childhood.
2. Call all the teenagers you know or who are attending the party and see if someone would be up for being a clown. I know I would do it in a heartbeat for kids :)
3. Those teenagers, who don't want to become a clown, give them an option to do be the magician.
4. Those who don't want to be either, ask them to dress as some super-hero i.e. superman, batman, hulk, etc.
5. Music, Music, Music. And you'll make them dance.
6. Please don't forget ice-cream with cones.
7. Games and Competitions, the winner gets a prize.
8. Lots of sweets, candies, colorful cupcakes. It won't hurt kids to be sugar high for a day.
That's all I remember form my childhood.
