A few years ago I heard of the “best day ever” birthday celebration idea from a friend. You basically have your child plan out their “best day ever” and invite all of their friends and family to join in whatever parts of the day they can.
Our boy turned 5 this year and gave it a shot and it was so much fun. 47 people joined throughout the day to celebrate him! Our day consisted of donuts and coffee, his soccer game, Chick-fil-A for lunch, going to a park, and eating pizza for dinner.
