Meanwhile, here's the link to the "Birthday Book" that makes one of THE best gifts at an incredibly good price...

A well thought out birthday present shows the recipient how much you care- and that's as true for kids as it is for adults. So often, though, kids birthday party presents are last minute purchases because most of us just don't have enough hours in the day.

The Birthday Party Gift Idea Reference Guide is full of thoughtful, interesting, often overlooked gift ideas that will really please when presented to the right child. It's a matter of matching the gift to the child - and a quick call to parents will usually tell you if you're on the right track. Our gifts currently fall into several categories that most all kids enjoy:

• Games = Brains: Board games, games for solo play like handheld electronic games, skill games. All of these teach thinking skill and are definately NOT a waste of time. And board games in particular can make a great together activity for siblings or the whole family, so will be appreciated by all.
• Wearables- Practical yet Fun: Many of these are the well-loved personalized kids gifts- they LOVE anything with their name on it! Plus, infinately practical items with a fun twist to appeal to kids.
• Arts and Crafts: Not the pre-packaged craft kits that are the ones that so often end up never used. For the artistic kids and the ones who like doing things with their hands.
• Sports:

 

Birthday Party Gift Registry:

Anticipated Availability: 3/31/10 [You'll get an email]

I can't tell you how many times my children received birthday party gifts that were never used- they just didn't appeal to my kids' interests. So just like for weddings, I've created a kids birthday gifts registry for you to use- all for FREE.

Browse our gift ideas reference guide and anything you find that would delight your birthday child you can click right on the 'Add to Registry' link in the Idea Reference Guide. Or, you can manually add other items to your list. Print out a little business card sized notice of your registry and how to access it to slip right in your invitations.

Your guests can check off any items they intend to purchase, so duplicates are avoided.

Your guests will be grateful for the assistance you provide in choosing the presents- it makes their job that much easier. And, the gifts will all be meaningful to your birthday child; much better value for the money that's spent.

Birthday Party Gift Pool Service:

Maximize the value of all those dollars spent on gifts for your birthday child, AND, minimize the waste of unwanted/uninteresting gifts. This is a WIN-WIN for everyone.

Guest's parents can contribute their gift dollars by credit card and you can use the contributed funds to purchase that one or two really meaningful gifts for the birthday child- something they REALLY WANT, something that's too expensive otherwise.

All without the hassle or embarassment of having to chase people down to get their money because it's so easy to do by credit card. Print out the little card telling people where/how to make their contributions, slip them into your invitations, and you're good to go.

Make the most of those birthday party gifts by pooling the funds.

Birthday Party Planning Guide:

My party package are here for those parents not wanting to go the Do-It-Yourself route, but I know many people prefer to D-I-Y. So, based on the success of my party packages, I've created a printable guide for putting together a fun yet structured kids party that keeps everyone engaged in the activities.

These 'rules' for a successful kids party will avoid that 'worst nightmare' of a group of rambunctious kids all doing there own thing and making trouble for the hosts.

Printable Birthday Party Favors:

You've probably realized by now that waste is a big problem with me. And when it comes to kids birthday parties, I see no bigger source of waste than the traditional 'goody bag' filled with teeth-rotting candy and plastic junk - stuff that it's just not worth spending our hard earned money on.
