10/04/2024 14:30. Subject: Birthday party etiquette. quote. Anonymous. Such a DCUM post, assuming that gifts are universally considered tacky and passé. If it says nothing, that means bring a gift. Probably in the $20-30 dollar range. Duplo, Magnatile, book, puzzle, a Melissa and Doug pretend kit, etc. report.
I want to be clear that all siblings ARE invited as are the parents. Subject: Invitation wording to include siblings and parents? We invite your family to join ours for Jimmy's 5th birthday. Subject: Invitation wording to include siblings and parents? I put "parents and siblings welcome" on the invite. Subject: Invitation wording to include ...
Other PPs also gave good advice, go into evite and change it so when people respond it doesn't have an option for putting the number of people attending. For future evites, put the name of the invited kid. Also write "parents are welcome to stay or drop off", but many parents stay at this age for a venue. report.
17:51 here. First, if you need extra hands you enlist one or a few friends, and maybe they have to bring sibs, but they are there to help you. Second, I personally would not do no sibs for the inset 4 crowd b/c I would not want to be responsible for those kids without their parents.
I went to a birthday party like this recently -- the invitation said "in lieu of gifts please bring food for the local food bank." So I agonized about whether to get a real gift or not.

Maybe you could send the specific invites to the child they are each closest with. Make the whole guest list and then assign each invited child one of your children's names. For the two that are in the same class - label half the invites as one bday party and half the invites as the other's bday party. 3rd DC invite people to that bday party.
Once kids start going to other birthday parties with lots of gifts, good luck with "no gifts," hahaha ...
I didn't see anywhere in OP's post stating the whole class was invited. For all we know it may be a birthday party where the majority of the attendants will be from the culture of the birthday girl. OP may be the only or one of only a few non-of-their-culture invited. OP, if that is the case you could have just called the host to ask the meaning.
How to word this birthday party invitation. We're having my DD's 5th birthday party at our house. I'm fine if parents want to drop their kids off but I'm fine if they want to stay. I'm also fine with siblings coming because I understand it's hard for people to find childcare, but I don't necessarily want to encourage people to bring siblings.
Basically they are sick of hosting and attending birthday parties, so they're trying to "spread the word" that birthday parties should stop at age 7. I understand that birthday parties are expensive to host, and they can present a logistical challenge with weekend sports and other activities. The parents have convinced their kids that birthday ...
