regarding an aug birthday bash, may i suggest e following?
1)book a function room somewhere (condo, chalet, clubs, etc)
2)organise a buffet
3)order a big cake for every bb who is attending
4)get e family involved 2 pay upfront 1st. if e bb's sick at e end of e day, amt paid is either forfeitted or if every mummy agrees, we split e cost among e remaining mummies who turn up.
5)every mummy bring one birthday gift (unisex n of a min value) for birthday gift exchange
6)in e function room, set up a corner wif e playmat n each mummy bring a toy suited for 1yrs old bb. wif every family bringing 1 toy each, u'll hv "x" no of toys for each bb 2 play wif.
i dun suggest holding it at a themed location (such as gymboree, kindermusik, etc) cos it's not cheap, can only cater for max 15bbs (any additional bb is chargeable), cant cater 4 food n u can only spend max 1-3hrs (depending on e location) then every1 has 2 "pai pai pi gu" n leave.
i propose doing it on 28 or 29jul bcos most bbs here r born in aug so every wkend in aug will b used up 4 e bbs' birthday bashes. holding it in end jul will b best for every possible aug bb 2 attend. makes sense?
since u propose tis idea, can u pls b e chairlady?
