CHILDRENS PARTIES – EXPECTATIONS

Like it or not there is no getting away from the fact that expectations surrounding events, parties and gifts have increased considerably over recent years. We have even heard of black tie 13th birthday parties with formal invitations and photographers.

Before putting yourself under pressure, stop for a few moments and determine what exactly are your child’s party expectations. They maybe a lot less than you are lead to believe. Kids are not difficult to entertain. Lots of games and a bit of ingenuity will ensure the party is a success.

As you have clicked on a page promoting smurf party supplies it is safe to assume that it is the theme you have decided on. Everything else will follow on. The great thing about a smurf party is the fact that the main colours are blue and white. That makes things very easy when it comes to decorating the cake and venue.

The key to hosting a successful party for your child is to have plenty of activities and games. For this you will need to plan in advance. Don’t expect inpiration to drop from the sky as you are standing in the back garden facing 20 expectant children.

Our favourite is a smurf realy and obstacle course race. This is best run outdoors. If your garden is not big enough then perhaps you could movethe party games to a nearby park or green space.

Whatever games you decide upon make sure you have plenty of adult support at hand. Call in favours or ask relatives but without enough help the games will not go according to plan.

Another query that crops up frequently when party games are been discussed is whether to award prizes or not. In our opinion every child should leave the party with something, whether it is a prize or the result of a craft activity.

When it comes to childrens party themes there is lots to discuss so make sure you read through our blog. This post is just a small snippet of the useful tips and
advice you will find at party-shop.ie.

PARTY TIPS FOR PARENTS

When you have decided on the date and venue for your child’s birthday party why not make things special right from the start. By that we mean putting effort into the party invitations. You can buy all your party supplies including invitations at party-shop.ie.

Once you recieve them you can customise them and add your own personal touch. However for more creative parents there is always the option of making them from scratch. It does take time and your child may prefer the shop bought versions. If you do want to make the invitations then make sure you have.

1. Butterfly Template
2. Ruler
3. Markers – Lighter colours for the base, black for the writing
4. Glue
5. Glitter.

If you can make them so they will fit into an envelope.

Remember home made invitations are much more personal than shop bought ones and the style and design can set the tone for the whole
party.

Product Launches – Planning The Event

May 13th, 2012

CORPORATE EVENTS – PRODUCT LAUNCHES

Generally speaking when a company is launching a new product success is measured in terms of publicity generated. That means media attendance is essential.

To get the attention of the main media outlets you need something unique, something that sparks interest. Journalists and programme producers are bombarded everyday with press releases and requests for publicity. To get attention from the media a quirky angle or interesting story is required.

Timing is also very important. If you want the item to make the six o’clock news then a morning event stands a much better chance of been included. The production teams will have a chance to gather, review and edit the material.

The key point to remember is that not everyone will be as interested in your new product as you are, unless of course it is a new ipad. Assuming people will attend the event is a mistake. You must put effort into the preparations.

The “hook” to generate media attention depends on the product and type of event. If it is a ground breaking story then the content itself will generate interest.

For other less unusual launches you may need to create a buzz by booking entertainers or in some way creating a party atmosphere.

If you work in a PR agency or company organising a product launch be sure to click through to party-shop where you can get plenty of decorations and accessories for your product launch.
