I went all out for Dylan’s first birthday party and all he wanted to do was take a nap! They are definitely more for us than the children at this age so luckily she saved you some hassle and money! Sounds like she has a perfect birthday treat in mind though x

My boys didn’t have parties till they were both four. Mini would always choose something else over a party and will turn seven in June and is going to have his FIRST birthday party!

Save your energy for helping F shape the parties of the future. Remember the swimming “street” party, the Tudor dressing up party, the film making etc Lots to look forward to. F will have a wonderful day. I’ll look out for the pony for the day, but make sure you prime her that it goes back to the riding stables after the ride not home with F! love ma x

We’re in the midst of party season for our NCT group, some of the parent’s have gone for the full on party as you described. We just did a BBQ and let the kids run around in the garden doing what they wanted. They loved it and I’m think a lot of kids are probably like Frog and just aren’t that bothered by a party

I am completely on F’s side. Kids birthday parties SUCK! Don’t mourn it, be very grateful – the time will come when you’ll long for a day of horseriding and she’ll be begging you for fifty of her closest friends to take over the house xx

That is lovely that she’s happy not having a party. I have no plans for my little ones next birthday other than a nice day out x

I’m a very bad parent as I am yet to throw a proper birthday party. There is cake cause we all love an excuse to eat cake and that is about it. I am hoping when we reach the 3rd birthday the wee man still won’t be interested!

Your child is nicknamed Frog too so you are obviously right in every way For what it’s worth, I think you deserve points for putting your daughter’s wishes first.

So, here’s the thing……..i am RUBBISH at kids parties!!!

This is unfortunate, having 3 children, but try as I might I just seem to fail in this department!!!

I was thrilled, therefore, to find that Big (who turns 8 in just ovet a week), simply wants to take her 3 “Besties” to the Cinema & then on for Pizza afterwards!!!

Now that I CAN manage…….

Having got really excited about having a birthday party for Talitha, I am now toying with the idea of not throwing her one either. She just wants to hang out with family anyway. June is also very busy for me as we’ll most likely be moving then. There’ll be many years to come with parties. Maybe we should both give it a rest this year. You could have a farewell bash though?
