First, set the time and the place of the party. When you pick the time and the place, remember to consider the weather and the schedule of the children being invited. Also keep you budget (预算) in mind. If your child wants to go to a theme park, that may not be realistic. However, a party in a park might be in the budget.

Then make a guest list with your child. Find out how many people he or she wants to invite. Also, depending on how simple or elaborate (复杂的) in the party will be, the guest list may be small or rather large.

Third, make a reservation if necessary. It is important to make a reservation a bit earlier to make sure that the place of the party can be kept. But if you are going to a park or having it in your house, it’s clear that a reservation will be unnecessary.

Fourth, it is time to pick a theme for the party. Discuss with your child and try to pick something that your child loves. Allow him or her to be a part of planning the party.

Now plan and make a food list. If the party is going to be a one-day event, the list will be more extensive (广泛的). If it only lasts a couple of hours, some snacks along with cake and ice-cream will do.

Party games and prizes are the last. Once again discuss with your child and see if he or she has ideas. Plan some games that will work well with the place of the party. Pick prizes that are suitable for the age group of your child.
