Momosphere: 10.23.09

Birthdays are a big deal. While a lot of adults want to forget them, most kids want to celebrate them with over-the-top pageantry. My 6-year-old’s birthday is in December, but he’s been talking about his birthday party for months now. We’re currently in negotiations over his birthday party (he wants it at home, which I’m for) and the number of guests (he’d like to invite the whole world). While we work that out, I’ve been trying figure out at what age we can end the parties. Is 8 too early?

Blogger Stefanie Wilder-Taylor is running out of time — and possibly money — to plan her daughter’s birthday party. “Elby, rather than just being happy she had a birthday party at all last year, is actually expecting us to step it up a notch,” she writes. “She wants My Gym or The Jump Around or a princess party with a real live princess who comes over to hang out with her and her friends and put glitter in their hair. Yeah. The kid is 4-years-old going on delusional if she thinks I’m dropping that kind of money on her fifth birthday.”

10 Clutter-Free Gift Ideas for Kids; SimpleMom.net
