With the economy changing there are more parents looking for alternatives to their kids birthday that will not break the bank.

We at Jumping J-Jays know that you cannot stop birthdays in your house but you need to work on providing a birthday event that is based on your budget.

Below are a few tips we give parents to bring the cost of the birthday event at your home. Whether you live in Jannali or Gymea or Kirrawee, kids and parties work the same.

Budget Ideas for Birthday Parties in the Shire:

• Have the party between 9:30 and 11:30 or 1:30 to 4:30.  This means that you do not need to provide dinner or lunch
• If your party is for kids 5 years and older do not ask the parents of the guests to stay
• For the cake, bake yourself or decorate a more plain cake from the

      supermarket rather then getting one custom made

• Party theme.  Keep it simple! There are at least 6 themes available at the discount stores where the supplies are a lot cheaper then at specialized party theme shops.  Choose one of them or do not theme the party
• Hire a jumping castle that does not have the frills.  I have seen kids have just as much fun on a regular jump house.  The kids will have FUN on any inflatable
• If parents come and do not get the hint on the invites do not provide alcohol
• You need no other party games then the jumping castles so do not do any more

Hope this helps in some way.  From our experience at Jumping J-Jays Sutherland, Jumping castles and slides the mum makes more of a deal on the party then needed. 

Chill out and the kids will have fun. Talking about fun click here to see a range of FAIRY jokes at our KIDZ CLUB
