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 Hello:
I would like to throw a birthday party for my parents who by chance are both turning 70 this year. My dilemma is they are both wheelchair bound and my mother has no family still living (also I have no photos of her prior to their wedding). I wanted to economize two birthdays into one single even/uniform event without over shadowing the other parent. Is it possible to carry-off and if so how?
I thank you for you time.
Don
Answer Don:
This is quite easy to do! Since their life together is the thing that most of the attendees will be familiar with, you can focus on that, with photos and reminiscents of their life after marriage--forgoing all the childhood photos. However, if you could find just one or two of them as children, about the same age, that could be part of the invitation and decoration (poster, etc) graphic...but if not, go with what you have.
In the planning you just add another name to the invitation,banner amd cake. Really, just plan it as you would for one but just add the other name. The guest list will be pretty much the same. The other details will stay the same--refreshments, decorations, activities, etc. It should be fairly uncomplicated.
I wish you great luck in your party planning adventure. If you need further help, do not hesitate to write.
Cordially,
