I hope he appreciates the effort


It's Ethan's birthday party tomorrow.

Lunch boxes will be prepared. Snacks for parents will be available (including homemade banana and choc chip muffins and wheat, gluten, dairy and egg free chocolate cakes). Refreshments for all will be offered. Party cake in the shape of a number three is baked and iced (thanks to the Mother-in-law and an ancient copy of Good Housekeeping.)

Pass the parcel is wrapped. Party bags are sewn and filled. Balloon animals will be created.

Order of games is written down:
  • Dinosaur egg treasure hunt - finding the baby dinosaurs
  • Pin the tail on the donkey
  • Dinosaur egg treasure hunt - finding food for the baby dinosaurs
  • Crazy frog race (optional)
  • Musical hedgehogs
  • Egg and spoon races
  • Dinosaur egg treasure hunt - finding sweets for the baby dinosaur
  • Pass the parcel

Games to be followed by party tea and obligatory candle blowing, a chorus of Happy Birthday and cake eating.


A lot of work and preparation for two short hours. I hope he appreciates the effort.
