How To Tame All The Excitement At Your Kid’s Birthday Party
Kids can all get a little too over excited at birthday parties. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with excited kids. But once it starts to spill over, it can often lead to them being quite badly behaved. It can also quickly lead to tears and tantrums! But don’t worry; there are some very simple ways you can keep all that excitement in check and control all of the very happy children at your child’s next birthday party. Here are some great tips that will help you organising a perfect party.
Cut Down On Sugary Sweets And Treats
The food at birthday parties is often very high in sugar. Even if you bake your own cookies and cakes, you will find that there are still very high levels of sugar in them. All this sugar may help the food taste great, but it can also have a very negative effect on children’s behaviour. It makes many children get very hyper, which can lead to them misbehaving. So, it’s a good idea to limit the sweets and treats that are available at the party. Try to keep sugar levels down to a minimum, to effectively prevent all the excitement get too much for all the young guests!
Calming Games Are Best
When you are trying to think of games and activities to do with the children at the party, you shouldn’t plan anything that involves any screen time. Watching TVs, computers, and mobile devices for too long can wake up children’s brains, and they won’t be able to get to sleep easily after the party. The other parents aren’t going to be too happy if the kids won’t go to bed as soon as they get home! But too much screen time can also get kids very excited, especially if they are watching something that is very action-packed. Think of cool math games or the games that you used to play at parties when you were a child, and organize some of them.
Split Up Excitable Children
There could be certain pairs or groups of children who get too excitable when they are together or rile each other up too much. To make sure they don’t have a bad influence on the other party guests, it is a good idea to try and keep them separate as much as possible. There are various ways you could do this, but one of the best is to use some embossed cards at each table place with each child’s name on. That way, they know exactly where they should sit for the party meal. Just remember to keep these groups and pairs away from each other at the table!
Remove Excess Toys
If you are having the party in your living room, it is a good idea to tidy up before guests arrive and remove any toys you won’t be using for party games. If there are loads of toys all over the place, the kids will all go wild! Limit their toy choices to limit their excitement.
