[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK, DCUMers.

I'm planning a 3 YO birthday party at my house from 4-6pm.  We're on a budget so we tried to limit the number of kids and parents; however, because we invited whole families, we'll end up with around 8 3 year olds and various younger siblings and all the parents.  I was planning on serving cake, snacks (cheese, crackers, vegetables, chips), and drinks.  Are you all saying you'd expect a full dinner?  We don't usually eat until after 7 so I never thought people would want a lot of food at this time (we couldn't do 2-4 because of nap schedules).  We rarely eat pizza because our kids won't eat it, and I can't eat it.  DC won't eat sandwiches except peanut butter, and I don't know enough about the health issues of the invitees to serve PB at a party anyway.  In addition to not wanting to cater an entire meal, I'm afraid if we serve a real meal, there won't be time for the kids to play.

That is the exact time slot that people would all go home hungry. Please be a good host and serve some food. Even if you don't eat sandwiches, make some and put them out.  Buy some chicken nuggets from costco. make or cater a tray of pasta. do one or all or something else but please do something.[/quote]
