[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's fine if you have the space. I do like the bounce house idea because that occupies the kids (or a subset) without your direct engagement like games. You can probably see if a neighbor will lend you one. I also think you need at least one other parent or a paid teen who will help out in managing the kids and flow of the party. I agree people will be in your house for bathrooms etc so figure out how to avoid kids lingering and want to play and make messes with inside stuff. These are the kind of parties we used to have growing up and it was all whole families like you're describing and it was fun. A lot of work for the hosting adults for sure.[/quote] thanks-- our parents will be helpful (and teen niblings can be recruited for help too). we have little bounce house but they only fit like 2-3 kids at a time-- i'm not actually sure if our yard is big enough for a big one (also forgot we have a climbing dome, basketball hoop, chalk, etc) yes that's what we did as a kid too.
