For your 7 year old.... My kids choose to go to the Theature & get to pick out kids movie, I let him choose 5 friends & then they all get to share popcorn! Mess stays there, they get to be noisy to a degree, THEY love it because movies are kinda a luxury these days, and some kids never get to go. THEN afterwords we go to an ice cream parlor & each kid get to choose their personal flavor & we open presents and sing. ONCE again mess stays somewhere else for someone else to clean up! I have winter Birthday too. It rains alot here so we need to find indoor activities too. And Ice Cream durin the winter is kimda un, because it is usually a summer thing. Just an idea.
The older one is going with her nonni to get her hair and nails done, and her ears pierced if she wants them done. Then poppi's picking them up and taking them to dinner and a movie. I just need to find somewhere for their cake and ice cream, I'm NOT cleaning up after everyone, lol. I don't think my one year old cares if she has a party, and I'd rather just have family/cake/presents, but everyone else thinks they all need a party.
I never had a birthday party til my kids were 5. Thats when they have friends to stay over & go do things, and KNOW whats really up! We always did something really cool as a family before thay LIKE go to the Aquarium, Omsi, Zoo, Ride the train, Go to the beach etc.
