Stephanie Kaster of Manhattan set out to plan the birthday party of a lifetime for her daughter. Little three year-old Sophie, had not have many birthday parties to compare to, so after careful
deliberation and her mother Mrs Kaster saying:
"
I just thought, 'If I go to another paint-a-ceramic-bowl or stuff-a-bear party, I'll shoot myself,'" She decided to think further than just the
tailored boring birthday party….
Take a look at these party ideas for child at their next birthday party.............
Therefore, after a slight
hesitation - she booked a
fondue restaurant,
hired a musical
troupe to perform as the “Wiggles” (her daughter's favorite group) and ordered a four-layer cake. Each for each guest took home a Fisher-Price guitar and custom CD.
The price tag? €4,000.
"I
couldn't believe that I'd ended up spending that much," Kaster says.
DEBATE
- How much should you spend on a child's birthday party?
- Have you ever been to a child's birthday party?
- Do you get what you want on your Birthday?
- What type of parties are best?
