I am not an expert in children or teen parties. There are hundreds of sites that specialize in that information if you google "kids parties" you will find an amazing amount of bright ideas. We do have a page on our site that leads to al the different kid's party themes, however. http://www.partyplansplus.com/themes.htm
Not for those seeking information about party/event planning as a career. That information is found on the internet under "event planning careers" or at our site www.partyplansplus.com/started.htm

Question For our son's bar mitzvah we are planning a fancy lunch after the service (complete with entertainment) but are taking a few kids to a water park the next day. We are sending separate invitations with the bar mitzvah invitations to the invited friends but want some wording to put on the envelope so they know it is not for everyone.Please help.
Answer Sorry for the delay...just saw this question.
In order to keep things straight, I would send a separate invitation to the Water park guests. This can be a fun computer generated invitation, not costly at all. I am assuming that you are sending a very nice invitation to the bar mitzvah--you don't want to detract with another piece included.
Two separate events, guest list and details so two invitations is a must.
If only a few of the kid guests will be invited to the Water park, that is a little touchy since the kids will talk to each other about it. Not sure how you handle that. I am assuming those would be his closest friends and he could ask them to keep it low-key.
