Figure Out A Budget In the immediate future, you need to decide how much you would like to spend on the birthday party of your child. It can be easy to spend too much on a party and it is also possible to work to a budget. You need to make sure you create a budget and stick to it.

Choose Your Venue In order for a venue to be successful, it should encourage guests to interact. It's not just about singing Happy Birthday and eating cake!   

When it's your child's birthday, what would they like to do? What interests them? You can pick venues that suit different preferences.

When planning an outdoor party, consider the weather. Depending on the type of entertainer you're planning on hiring, you'll need a venue that meets their requirements. Make sure the venue is appropriate for the children in attendance.
Choose The Date And TimeYou need to determine an ideal date and time to fit your needs and your family's schedule once the venue is selected. 

The mornings on Saturday are often occupied by sporting commitments and the younger children often opt for naps in the afternoon or mid-morning. Also, think about whether a weekday party would be better for a preschooler if it's a weekend party.
Send Out the Invites Find out who your child wants to invite to their party. Make sure the list of invitees stays the same over the next few days by asking a few times. Are you comfortable having a certain number of children attend the party? Do not forget about their younger siblings! Can you invite parents and family members from your child's school, daycare center, or preschool?
Choose Your Theme Consider purchasing cost-effective party decorations, cups, plates, cutlery, and lolly bags that are themed after your child's favorite character. The Internet has a wide variety of websites that sell them, and craft and discount stores are also great places to buy them. 
Select The FoodHow much food you will provide depends on what time of day and how old the guests are. 
You should also consider whether you will be providing healthier alternatives to 'good old traditional party food' for the children, as well. Ask your child to help you decide what to serve at the party. It is possible you will not have access to an oven or kitchen if you plan to host the party in a park. Does your car have a way of accessing the park easily?
