[quote=Anonymous]OP I agree with others - 2 hours is max for kids birthday parties. 3:30 - 5:30 and mention that you'll have "snacks and cake" or something like that - it's helpful to know what food will be served. If it was me, I would honestly do 4-6 pm and serve a dinner at 5 so people aren't rushing home to get their kids dinner at the end of the party. For most 3 year old party invites it says "no gifts please" but I know there are mixed feelings on this. Personally I like this for 3 year olds, and don't mind at all buying gifts for my 5 year olds friends because he actually know their preferences and has fun picking out for them. So I've liked the 3 year old no gift parties, but either way is fine. If you say nothing, you will get a lot of gifts. And definitely no magnets. I've never seen anything beyond an email or an evite. And absolutely don't give a different end to one set of folks. Your close friends will stay if they want. [/quote]
