Tips for throwing kids an unforgettable birthday party
STORM CHANCES FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK COMING UP SOON. AUDREY: THANK YOU. THIS SUMMER IS A SEASON OF CELEBRATIONS AS MANY PARENTS ARE MAKING UP FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS OF SCALED-DOWN BIRTHDAY PARTIES. WHETHER YOU’RE FOCUSED ON BIGGER GATHERINGS OR ON EXPERIENCES THERE ARE WAYS TO HELP MAKE YOUR CHILD’S BIG DAY UNFORGETTABLE. I’D LIKE TO WELCOME HANNAH CUTTS NOW. SHE IS THE OWNER OF RESERVING ROYALTY AND HEROES IN HIGH POINT. HANNAH, YOU LOOK FABULOUS. THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE. >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME. AUDREY: HOW DO CAREGIVERS PICK THE PERFECT THEME FOR A BIRTHDAY PARTY? >> SUMMER HAS AN OCEAN OF POSSIBILITY. THERE ARE THE CLASSIC SOME OF THE WATERMELON OR POOL PARTIES. BUT WHAT WE ALWAYS RECOMMEND TO OUR CLIENTS IS TRYING TO CAPTURE THEIR CHILDREN AND THE MOMENT THEY ARE IN, THE AGE THAT THEY ARE. THEY ARE ONLY GOING TO BE THAT AGE ONCE. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THEY ARE INTO MERMAIDS AND THE MOVIE “FROZEN, CLOSED VOTE INSTEAD OF PICKING ONE OR THE OTHER HAVE A MERMAID “FROZEN” PARTY. BACK THEY ARE GOING TO LOOK AND SAY, WHEN I WAS FOUR YEARS OLD, I HAD THE BEST BIRTHDAY PARTY. WE ARE SEEING A LOT THIS YEAR PARENTS GOING BIG. THEY ARE BRINGING THEIR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS TOGETHER FOR A BIG CELEBRATION. A LOT OF THAT TIME MEANS MOVING TO OUTDOOR SPACES. RECOMMEND DOING IT EARLY IN THE MORNING BECAUSE THAT WILL BE BETTER. THAT IS ALSO PRIMETIME FOR KIDS. THEY JUST WOKE UP, THEY ARE EXCITED. 10:00 AM IS A POPULAR TIME TO GET IT IN BEFORE LUNCHTIME. YOU ALSO MISS OUT ON THE SUMMER STORMS THAT YOU GET IN THE AFTERNOON. HIT YOUR LOCAL PARK UP, HAVE A BIG CELEBRATION EA RLY IN THE MORNING, AND THE KIDS WILL BE ENERGETIC AND READY TO GO. AUDREY: AND THEN WEAR THEM OUT SO THEY GO TO SLEEP. [LAUGHTER] >> EXACTLY. AUDREY: WHAT ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE, THIS THEME YOU ARE USING? IT IS NOT A BIRTHDAY PARTY BUT YOU ARE PLANNING AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE. WHAT SHOULD PARENTS KEEP IN MIND? >> THESE CLIENTS ARE GOING BIG AND HAVING THESE WONDERFUL PARTIES. IF YOU ARE HAVING A PARTY, FOCUS ON HAVING STATIONS, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE FAMILY AND FRIENDS THAT ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH EACH OTHER. HAVING A CRAFT STATION AND MAY BE A MAKEOVER STATION OR TATTOO STATION, WATER PLAY STATION. IT SETS UP THE MOOD FOR EVERYBODY TO INTEGRATE TOGETHER AND CELEBRATE TOGETHER. IT HAS THAT FUN OPPORTUNITY AND NO ONE FEELS LEFT OUT. IT ALSO MAKE IT EASIER ON YOU SO YOU DO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT HOSTING A PARTY. YOU HAVE ALL OF YOUR STATIONS READY TO GO AND LET THE KIDS GO AT IT AND HAVE FUN. AUDREY: YOU HELP PLAN EVENTS, NOT JUST BIRTHDAY PARTIES. WHAT ELSE COULD WE PLAN TO CELEBRATE ALL SEASON? >> WE ARE ALL ABOUT CELEBRATING HERE. MAYBE A BIRTHDAY PARTY IS NOT YOUR THING. YOU ARE FOCUSING ON CREATING MAGICAL MOMENTS TOGETHER. YOU COULD PLAN A SUPERHERO PLAY DATE OR PRINCESS PLAY DATE AT OUR LOCATION WITH THE TEA PARTY AND MAKEOVER. WE HOST REALLY COOL EXPERIENCES AND CHARACTER EVENTS EVERY MONTH. WE HAVE THIS COOL EVENT COMING UP CALLED THE MERMAID SHE LLABRATION AT SUMMERFIELD FARM. WE WILL HAVE THE LITTLE MERMAID AND HER PRINCESS FRIENDS. IT IS A CANNOT MISS EVENT. COMING UP IN AUGUST, WE HAVE COOKING CLASSES, SUPERHERO PARTIES, AND AN ALICE IN WONDERLAND TEA PARTY. AUDREY: WHAT A BLAST. THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. WE HAVE THE WEBSITE ON THE SCREEN.
