3 Low-Cost Ideas for Your Child's Next Birthday

Party Birthdays can't be escaped—we all have one every year! Most children want a birthday party each year. Parents want to make their child's big day special, but birthday parties can be expensive. Celebrating the birth of your child doesn't need to break the

bank though. Here are some ideas for throwing great birthday parties on a budget. Host the party at a location other than your home or a public park. Parties held at kid friendly places, such as gymnastics facilities, bowling alleys and zoos are often a surprisingly good value. This is because the cost of the party often includes food, drinks, entertainment, decorations, paper products and cleanup. We held my daughter's last birthday party at a local skating rink.

owns as decorations and activities for the party. If your child loves Barbie or Hot Wheels, chances are their friends will too. No need to spend money on cheap, disposable items when the kids will have more fun playing with the toys your child already owns. So when your child's next birthday comes around, don't worry! A great party doesn't need to be expensive. Low-cost parties are fun, too!
