[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many people do you invite for your home parties? I prefer home parties too but we had about 17 girls over for my DD last party (turning 8) and they were so wild and crazy I swore I'd never do a home party again. It was like lord of the flies in our house - we barely survived that party.[/quote]

Op here. 10 people is ideal. 12 is doable too. Our school is pretty small and that’s all her close friends anyways.

The kids have never gotten out of control. My sons have some seriously wild friends and it’s still very manageable. The boys need very active parties though. Mostly outdoors is preferable.

I have a designated party room (family room, kitchen or basement depending on party) and kids don’t get free rein to go to other rooms. I’ve had playdates get way out of control when kids go to tons of rooms and destroy everything. There’s also a schedule with activities planned for certain times so there’s not time to get bored and destroy my house. lol. [/quote]
