Kids...entertaining is an art.  By giving pleasure to others you are also giving pleasure to yourself.  And half the fun of entertaining is in planning the party from beginning to end..

First get your parent's consent; then set a date for your party, you can decide what kind of party you would like to give.  The most successful parties are those which are built around a theme or one one strong idea.

Valentine Parties, Pirate Parties, Luau Parties, Halloween Parties, Mexican Fiesta or Easter Parties  are all planned around an idea or theme. Your party invitations, your party decorations, party favors, and party games and even the food, all tie in with the theme.  All this, of course, takes planning. On your party day when you see your ideas carried out and your guests having a wonderful time, you will feel that the work of planning has been worth while.

This does not mean that you must do all the party planning yourself, without the help of others.  Your mother and father are the best ones to advise and help you. You should always ask permission on who you invite, where it will be, and how many you can invite.

Parties and birthdays seem to go together.  If your birthday comes in July, when many of your friends are on vacation trips, perhaps you can have your party later.  Or if you live in a small apartment and your birthday is in winter, you may want to celebrate your birthday quietly and wait until spring or summer for a party. Then you can play outdoor party games.

At your own party you are always to the guest of honor.  But did you ever think of giving a party to honor some other boy or girl?  Suppose a new boy has moved into your neighborhood. Perhaps you could introduce him to your friends at a party in his honor. Or perhaps one of your classmates is soon to go away on a trip, or is moving to another town. What could be better good-by than a party in honor of that friend. 

You can have parties for such holidays as New Year's , Fourth of  July, Thanksgiving, Halloween, or Christmas. You can have parties for seasons. To welcome spring, summer fall or winter. Or you can have parties just because you like to have them .  Sometimes these parties are the best of all..

Often your parents invite company for dinner. If the guest include a boy or girl of your own age, you can make the dinner into a party by making place cards and favors. And you can plan after dinner games which you and the younger guests can play in your room or outdoors. Any holiday dinner will seem more festive with place cards and table decorations. You can have fun by making these yourself or purchase  online

Maybe you just want to invite friends over after school to play. If so, ask your mother if you have her permission to serve fruit juices and cookies to make their visits seem more like a party.
