Does “no gift” mean you do not bring a card too?

Or do you always bring a card?
I’ve been to no gift where people brought gifts, and balloons along with small toys and felt completely confused as I took it very literally and did not bring a gift. I can’t recall if I took a card. |

So if the parents request no gifts you still bring a gift? |

| I usually don’t bring a card either. Just a verbal happy birthday. |

| I would bring a card and put some stickers in there or like a small gift card to a local bakery or ice cream shop or the like. |

| I only would if we were gifting a cool sticker or the kids had time and desire to make a card. Otherwise, I enjoy the convenience of just dropping a kid off for a fun time with no shopping excursion and wrapping precursor. |

| We always bring a card and I include a sheet of stickers or temporary tattoos or a bunch of balloons or their favorite candy if we know it. |

Yes, the gift is for the child, not the selfish parents. If the kid has too much stuff, the parents should buy them less. |

| My DD just went to a no gift party today and she made a card (she's 7). A few people brought cards as well and at least one had a gift card in it because the birthday boy happened to open that one. |
