Dear Forumites,

I need you help regarding ideas for my son's party.

He's turning 7 and wants to invite the whole class.

Magician, clown ... not his thing.

Maybe streetdance?

He is dreaming of horse riding or go-cart, but that's just not

on for 20 kids.

Last year hubby and l did the entertainment for the gang, but

our offspring wants something cool (not his parents).

Ideas that won't break the bank?

How about a pizza and cupcake party? The kids can make their own pizza's toppings and decorate their own cupcakes.

Or something else craftsy, you can get loads of bits from local craft shops/pound shops and The Works and the kids can make things to their hearts content. You can get cheap plates from Ikea and ceramic paints and let the kids create master pieces and you wont have to worry about party favours as they can take all their creations home!


Best of luck whatever you do!

Hi - just saw your post and thought I'd share details of the entertainer we had at my son's 7th birthday party yesterday (I have just recommended him in the classified section):


We booked James from Press Play (http://www.pressplay.org.uk/) for my son's 7th 'circus skills' birthday party. James was absolutely fantastic and I really wanted to recommend him on here. James kept 25 children enthralled and entertained for 2 hours and everyone had a go at everything from peackcock feather balancing, pedal-go riding, diabaolo, juggling, plate-spinning, and scarf juggling.


James was highly entertaining, great at building confidence in the kids and managed to keep them completely absorbed in the activities the whole way through. He was also very funny which is always a bonus! Even the adults couldn't resist joining in. Contact details are on his website above. Just brilliant - Thanks James!!

Thank you for all your recommendations - keep them coming!


Regarding the DKHP, read it's open for kids from 8 years onwards. My group will be between 6 and 7 years old.

Will they accept that?

And will they open the playground for a party at a weekend?

I guess I should just call them, but if anybody knows ...

Thank you Madmum!


You can email us on [email protected] for availability & more info-but that age range is absolutely fine. Sometimes with the younger ones a few more parents just need to stay.


if you call us on 0207-274-6197 after 2 you can talk to us also.


Thanks so much x

    • I completely agree.   Pride used to be in Brixton and Brockwell Park before it outgrew it and moved to Finsbury Park.  Quite reasonable to accept limitations and respond properly  
    • Yes, but most posting on here against the festival have not said they hate all festivals, it is about location, scale and footprint, duration of the event, including build and dismantling, and the level of impact on wildlife and residents living close by.    Last year I said on here that I would, reluctantly, accept the three day event, provided it was no more than that and the footprint was not extended to include more of the park. Now it is reasonably clear there is an intention to scale up I think a new, more suitable location must be found. 
    • Have to admit, I did have to check myself - I've been to many festivals and it seems a bit contradictory to challenge one, but our local park is not the place for a festival of this size. It just needs to either scale down to the environment (smaller footprint, less damage) or find a better location. There is a VAST difference between festivals out in the countryside and the same in an urban park.      
    • Campfire on from about 7pm on Fridays - pop along and join me - I always have some Small Beer available.
