[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to do a self-organized birthday party for DS, who is turning 5.  Either a soccer theme (based on the way they run his soccer practices -- skill development games and then a scrimmage, no score keeping) or old fashioned field day games.  I was a camp counselor for many years and am sure I could do a fun party and keep the kids entertained and engaged, but I am self-conscious about doing it in front of the other parents.  I could pay for a company to come and run the games, but I don't really want to pay extra when I could do it myself.  Our group has not yet started doing drop-off parties and all parties have had an activity led by the location (Little Gym, nature centers, etc.).  Anyone feel the same self-consciousness at running the party, or not, and how did it go?  Thanks!

I know exactly what you mean, OP.  I have planned some really cute activities for our playgroup but when the time comes to implement/lead them, I feel so silly.  But truly, I know if I really did it, the other moms would think it was great.  It's my own hangup and I should get over it.  As should you.  Good luck!  [/quote]
