I hope you’re joking. OP, the siblings are there for the party of a kid they don’t even know. They are lucky enough to be playing and eating your food and cake. It’s not at all cruel to not give them a custom made cookie. [/quote]

It is a cookie. I’m fairly certain she can order extra pretty easily. Baker most likely hasn’t started baking the cookies yet.[/quote]

Right, it’s a cookie. It’s not “cruel” for an uninvited child not to receive a cookie. [/quote]

My kid would be upset not to get a cookie. There will sure to be crying from my 3yo. I would make my older child give the cookie to the younger sibling.

That being said, I would not bring an uninvited sibling to a party. If all these siblings are coming, I wonder if it is a home party and guests think it is a family party.

One year, our family friend RSVPd for her entire family. Other classmates starting RSVPing with their other kids. I reached out to classmates and said due to party space, we can’t accommodate siblings and that I would let them know if someone cancels. I had my friend change her RSVP to only one kid and told her the sibling could come but not to put it on the evite. Now I write very clearly the names of invited kids so it is very clear who is invited.[/quote]
