Birthday Parties
Submitted by Min C
So how do you celebrate the birthday of a two year old?
If you invite your friends and their kids and have a buffet, its for you, not for the kid. I took the easy way out and spare myself the considerations of the venue and list of invitees. I decide to just celebrate his birthday at his childcare center. Even with that there are a bunch of things to consider.
The requirements for our childcare are to bring a cake enough for 50 children and enough baby gifts to distribute to his toddler class mates.
Our solution is:
- Order 3 kg cake from Bengawan Solo. Looks good and taste good. Set back about $110 bucks.
- Get party packs from Concourse. Each pack supplemented with stickers cost about $1.50 x 20pax = $30 ( * Concourse has since closed. )
Total cost: $140.
Look of my little boy’s face when he saw the cake and the candles – Well worth the price.
Seeing him learn the joys of giving as he pass the little gifts to his friends – Priceless.
Other tips:
Get the cake shop to deliver to the cake. 3 kg is not that easy to bring around.
