What's the Error?

Most parents worry that their child's party will not be successful. Nervousness is understandable, but the best thing you can do is understand these common mistakes and how you can avoid them. Next, we'll outline the five biggest mistakes parents make when planning a kid's party. Whether you book Non Stop Kids Entertainment or not, these tips are well worth paying attention to!

Sending Invitations Too Late – Or Too Early!

Sending out invitations at the right time is essential to a successful party. If you send the invitation too early, your parents may accidentally forget it. A late invitation can also mean that alternative plans have been made.

When you send an invitation too late, Those who want to join the party do not come as they are not ready or busy on that day and they just share a birthday shayari and image to wish them a happy birthday so it becomes important to send the invitation at the right time.

You may be wondering how many days before I should send the invitation? Usually between 3 and 4 weeks before the party date is a good time to send out invitations. However, if your party is at a particularly busy time, such as summer vacation or during the Christmas period, you may want to consider sending out invitations a few weeks in advance. In short, timing is very important!

Not Giving Your Guests Important Information!

There is some important information that you should share with your guests ahead of time, ideally in the invitation. Make sure you include the zip code for the place because almost everyone uses satellite navigation these days. Depending on your choice of venue, it's a good idea to include some simple directions and your cell phone number just in case they can't find you and need to call ahead.

Inform guests of the food provided, so no one shows up because they've eaten or worse, can't eat your delicacies due to dietary requirements, resulting in them starving. Lastly, make sure you include a start and end time, this way your guests can plan their day and you won't be spending too much time!

Make sure you include the RSVP line on the invite. Ask guests to respond by a specific date (usually a week or two before the event) to a registered phone number or email address. This will help you plan your meals, party bags and space, etc. When you get your RSVP back, make a list as well as a name sticker, this way you know exactly who to expect on the day.

Hiring An Entertainer Without Checking References!

The last thing you want is your children's entertainment to give a poor performance. The best recommendations are from other moms and dads; If there's an entertainer that everyone at the school gates raves about they're probably the best. Otherwise, make sure whoever you hire has lots of great video testimonials so you can be sure the reviews are real. At Non Stop Kids Entertainment, we're very proud that in a recent survey, 98% of moms said they would recommend us to a friend.
