[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - I did not think people would drop off. We have never done a party other than our immediate family. Reading this site, I thought I was supposed to invite the class, so I did. Reading this site, it sounded like many people decline parties, so I assumed I would have 10 - 15 kids. And it is on Father’s Day, and the consensus was that people would go to a close friend party but not a classmate party, so I was super shocked when families RSVPed at close to 100%.

Lesson learned and I am trying my best to make a fun party for my kid. Hindsight - would have brought cupcakes to her class and taken her do something with me for the day of her birthday. But now I am just trying to survive the party. [/quote]

What time is the party? I remember when you posted and asked about father's day.

Here's the thing. It's usually up to me (mom) to plan something for Father's Day, either with or without Daddy. So if I got the invite I'd think SWEET! We can go this party on Sunday and it counts as an easy and fun outing (leave dad at home) or a fun afternoon with dad. [/quote]

Exactly.   I have a son born on the 10th of May, so the birthday party weekends for him often coincide with mother's day.   A couple times I've accidentally scheduled his party for mother's day, and those always have the best attendance.   All the moms that say what they want for mother's day is just a day to themselves--to relax, sleep, take a long bath, read, etc.;  this gives the Dad's an easy way to occupy the day to give their kids' mom what she wants.   I bet a lot of Dad's have asked for the same thing and the mom's are thinking along those lines.[/quote]
