Become Your Neighborhood Party Host and Party Planner
Plan, Co-ordinate and Provide all Amenities for High End Kids' Parties
A Home Based Party Business is a wonderful fun Idea for
making money from home

If you're a planner and you're organized, Party planning/hosting is a wonderful, fun idea for a home based business.  Plan ahead, use your organizational skills, delegate, and your events will always go smoothly.

You can compile a database of party venues and their amenities for your high end kids' parties and let your clients choose from your extensive list as you explain the suitability of each.  You charge a fee for your services which would include planning and carrying out your customer's ideas for a theme using decor, colors and food.  See the woodland fantasy in the photo below for a decorating idea, and click the navigation links at the top of the page to see what's here for you.

On this website, and especially this page, you'll find party theme ideas and links to healthy party recipe ideas.  Start up help. Operating procedures and guidelines.  Merchants in the "marketplace" at right will provide wholesome beverages, decorating supplies, plates, etc. favors, games, music and more.  Everything you need from the comfort of your home.  You will also get some excellent information and ideas for starting and growing a home based business from Stephen Pierce, Business Optimization Strategist, when you sign up to receive his Free Reports

So get your laptop from Fujitsu if you don't already have one, build your traffic-pulling website with SiteBuildIt!, order your music from Amazon, games from PrintItParty and supplies from Birthday in a Box.  You're in business... and you didn't even leave your seat.  Now let people know what you're doing. Then use some ideas from the healthy party recipes, cook some beautiful yet nutritious party food and invite people in for a taste test.  It's that easy to take an idea of your own, start a home based business and make money from home... and it's all here for you.  Scroll down.

Here are some ideas for getting you started...

If you have a large backyard, you could host a variety of celebrations for a budget-minded clientele on your own property.  If you don't have a large backyard or if you prefer to work "off-site", then plan and host the parties at a nearby park.  Perhaps your apartment or townhouse complex has a clubhouse or pavilion.  You could work there. Create enchanting theme based decors and "Wow" your clients.

Entertaining outdoors can be challenging for most people.  If you think creatively and come up with novel ideas for keeping guests active and interested, outdoor parties can be wonderful and memorable. 

Here in Florida we are blessed with very pleasant weather at certain times of year.  We're also blessed with seasons of wet weather which keeps our vegetation lush and verdant.  An outdoor party is an event to be eagerly anticipated.  Give your clients something to talk about. Oh... and don't forget the bug repellant.

Ideas such as a make-your-own fruit kebabs, build-your-own-sundae station, or build-your-own-salad, burger or sandwich keeps them interested and lessens your work load.  Just keep the ingredients yummy and fresh* and let guests do the rest.  Give this some thought.  I know you'll come up with lots of great ideas of your own.

People can always think of a good reason to have a party. You can always think of a good idea for a theme and fun activities for them - your clients.

You are the planner.  You provide the food.  You do the decorations.  They just come, enjoy -- and pay you handsomely for your services.

If your kids are old enough, they can help.  Kids have great ideas for party themes and food.  Let them earn some money too!  Great incentive for them, inexpensive help for you, and they learn first hand about innovation and entrepreneurship.  Make it a family project and have fun with it.  Earn a great living while teaching your kids, by example, how to be independent.

Pretty soon you'll be drawing party business clients from across town and maybe even out of state. Your personal attention to detail, creativity, and fun loving personality expressed in the pages of your website will bring you clients from all over.

Pre-Schoolers may particularly enjoy a party themed around their favourite TV characters -

Olivia, Maggie and the Ferocious Beast, Ni Hao Kai-Lan, The Backyardigans, Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends, Tom & Jerry...

Or for older kids, current movies such as How to Train Your Dragon, The Princess and The Frog, or some old favorites like Star Wars.  My grandsons, ages 9 and 7 are big on Star Wars.  You might want to try this theme with parties for that age group.

Watch the kids' TV shows to get ideas then visit Birthday in a Box to find your themed party supplies.  

Birthday in a Box has a dazzling array of themes you can choose from.  Hannah Montana, Fiesta, Barbecue, High School Musical, Dinosaurs, The Princess and the Frog, How to Train Your Dragon, just to name a few.  You will also find individual party favors, invitations, candy, decorations and more.  It's your one-stop shop when you plan your kid to pre-teen parties and baby showers.  Birthday in a Box regularly updates their offerings.  When you sign up, you get timely email updates and notifications about their latest products.

You can also find Solid Partyware colors if your theme isn't available in the sets they present.  Get everything shipped directly to you so you can spend your time on planning the games and other fun elements of your party instead of hitting the mall.  You'll save both time and money.  Now that's very good for business.

Here's what the owner of this site has to say about SiteBuildIt!

"Tamar and I did lots and lots of research on kid birthday parties and started experimenting with our ideas on kids and during parties whenever the opportunity arose. We wrote up lots of content for the site and I was in charge of strategy and building the site from a technical aspect (although, with Site Build It!, you really don't need any technical knowledge because you can build a site through simple building blocks and monitor every aspect of traffic through a consolidated control center.). In no time, both of us became kid birthday junkies."

Make Clean-up A Snap

If the event is outdoors, place large trash cans at different points around the area.  Line them with plastic trash bags that can just be removed and discarded when full.  If you serve water in single portion plastic bottles, have a special can/bag for those.  Label it "Plastic Bottles" and let the guests know where it is located.

Kid party box ideaHere's a practical kid party idea - instead of having lots of cups and plates everywhere, you could make a personal meal box for each child.  Use a pretty box with no lid and decorate it.  Place smaller boxes inside to hold the food and drink.  Before the party, put one together for each child.  When they are through, the whole thing can be discarded or taken home if they wish.  You can find boxes of all kinds online.  I use these websites from time to time - Papermart.com and CreativeFoodPackaging.com.  These look interesting although I haven't used them myself - nashvillewraps.com and boxandwrap.com/gourmet boxes.

Unless you wish to keep the decorative items to use again, you can offer them to the guests by placing a special sticker under the item, table or guest chair and making an announcement to that effect at an appropriate time during the festivities.  Depending on what the items are, you might want to use them as prizes for various games or contests.  Giving them away leaves less for you to clean up and cart away later.


Disposable or Not?

Of course, if the event is informal, you can use everything disposable.  I suggest you do some price checking to see what options are best for you when just starting out.  Birthday in a Box has some great deals you can take advantage of for your kids' parties

Compare the prices for the more elegant disposable partyware you'll need for your more upscale events and choose the nicest ones you can find that are within your budget.

In the beginning, you may want to invest in some quality serveware and then have the tableware be disposable.  There are some very lovely plasticware pieces on the market that look like the real thing and lend themselves to very elegant settings. These would be perfect for a garden engagement party or similar celebration and, of course, they are reusable so you won't have to buy everything every time you do a party.

As your party business becomes more well known and you start making more money, you might want to start using real dishes and serveware for your indoor events.  Just keep them simple, elegant and classy.  You'll gain a reputation for gorgeous settings as well as elegant, healthy, delicious party food.
