If you’re in charge of a small person, I’m about 99% certain that at some point this year you’re going to have to plan a birthday party.
Maybe you’re a deadline surfer like me, coming up with last minute birthday ideas (and guest lists) and pulling it all together on a wing and a prayer.
Or perhaps you’re one of those military precision mamas or papas who’s got it all mapped out six months in advance.
Whatever your style, the Amazon Family Party Guide is here to help with some handy hints on creating the perfect birthday event, including tips from yours truly.
Party Planning with the Bloggers
Babes about Town was invited, along with some of the UK’s top family bloggers, to create this free online guide in celebration of Amazon.co.uk’s 15th birthday.
In the handbook, you’ll find sage advice and entertaining soundbites on party planning, gifts, budgeting and, most of all, making your child feel special without losing your tiny mind!
I share about some of our successful birthday party experiences including the mobile gaming party and the kids disco party we held for Ezra the year before.
You’ll also hear from the likes of Sticky Fingers, Being a Mummy, Dadzclub, Daddacool and Yummy Mummy Flabby Tummy on whether it’s worth hiring an entertainer, what finger food goes down best, and popular or unusual games to play (balloon treasure hunt sounds like a blast).
And throughout the guide, there are helpful links to products you can find on the main web site. Party on!

I am a total combo of planner and last minuter! I am wracking my brains already and it’s 4 months away, sure we will end up racing to the finish line. This sounds like a great thing from Amazon. Cool idea.
Hey Zaz, let me know what you come up with for your party idea. I’m definitely gonna throw something for my little one when he turns 5 in February, as so far he’s drawn the short straw on parties. But I’m more of a ‘manana’ mama ;-) It’s a very handy guide, hope you find it useful!
