[quote=Anonymous]PP here again. When I was growing up, opening gifts was part of the party. Maybe because parties are now so elaborate and expensive, this practice is no longer common? We went to bday parties at other people's homes or occasionally McDonald's Playland (where I remember my 7th bday), Skateland, etc. Now, perhaps due to time constraints, opening presents at a 2 hr party at an outside the home location is a time waster? These bouncy, indoor play area places have parties in 2 hr blocks so opening gifts would take up too much time? I don't think bday parties are really about the guests (or shouldn't be). It's the kid's birthday so he/she should be the center of attention.[/quote]
