Professional Party Planner’s Guide to Classroom Parties
The classroom teacher needs to let you know how much time will be
allocated for the party and at what time it will happen. In addition, the teacher will need to let you
know what roll she wishes to play in the party planning and in the event
itself. Some teachers prefer to let the
parents handle the entire party from planning to the big day, while others
prefer to have more of a say and an active roll in the planning and the party
itself.
To plan the party itself, ask the teacher what foods they prefer be
served. Would they like to go with
snacks? Healthy foods? Cupcakes and cookies? Find out what is easiest and what will make
the least amount of mess in the classroom which will have to be cleaned up at
the end of the party.
When the topic of purchasing food comes up, this is a good time to ask if
the school can provide anything for the party, if a collection will be taken up
from each of the families who have kids in the class, or it the parents will be
paying for it themselves. A lot of times
the budget for the event will have a lot to do with the planning for the party.
The next item for discussion is the activities, if any, for the
party. Will the children be playing
games, making a fun craft project to take home, etc… One of the most
appreciated crafts around holiday times can be something that the kids can make
at school and then wrap and present to their parents as gifts for the occasion. With some creativity this can be done
relatively inexpensively.
If the teacher prefers to let the parents plan the party, the teacher can
leave the meeting and the parents can meet, or plan to meet again, to plan more
of the details of the day. While planning
the party with other parents it is always a good idea to make sure you have
back-up plans incase one of the parents doesn’t do what they said that they
would, or doesn’t show up the day of the party.
Unfortunately, things like that do happen and it is just so much better
to be prepared for them ahead of time than to be caught on the day of the party
without supplies or enough people.
With these professional party planning tips you can make your children’s
parties the best in the school!
