[quote=Anonymous]I do think in 1st grade you start seeing more of a mixed bag when it comes to birthday parties. There's full class parties, single gender, small group of friends, friends from different groups, family parties, etc. Regardless of parties, since you are a newer family I would do more in terms of playdates. We were a new family and just 2-3 playdates help put my DD on the radar of other kids and families. We don't really do after school ones since we're in private schools and weekdays are hard to get together. So I try for weekends and random holidays/professional development days. Since it seems like your DD is friendly and open to different kids look at all the girls in her class as potential friends. Ask her if there's any one that she would definitely not want over and then reach out to the rest. Some families are more open than others. [/quote]
