Hi. DS is having his 11th birthday party at our local maize maze. I have a number of questions if you could help please?
Firstly do you think its better to have it on Friday night 6 till 8 - outside in the oncoming dark so they can play with torches whilst they follow the maize - followed by a tracor ride and burgers/hotdogs supplied by the farm.
Or just have it on saturday afternoon when it will be open to other people as well? Still with the tractor ride and same food etc.
The real problem I have is that at school on the same day there is a picnic after school for everyone to join in and I think the children will maybe be too tired? How do you think your DC's would feel?
Also I am going to make the cake with the pattern of the maze on top and give the torches instead of party bags. Is this a good idea? Finally if you're still with me how wet would it be before you didnt turn up? Just trying to anticipate the worst case scenario.
Oop's one more thing - any ideas for invitations? We have always been really creative in the past - like a message in a bottle for the pirate party, sunglasses for the pool party invites etc, but this time I am lost for ideas.
Any ideas welcome. Thanks to all you MN'ers
