[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a ton of food at our sons party last night and it was enjoyed by parents and kids. No idea why people think it’s fine to completely ignore that parents are there and may want to eat? If parents are expected to stay they should be offered food and beverages. We had chicken tenders, a veggie plate, pizza (ordered 4, we came home with one whole pizza minus 1 slice), fruit skewers, watermelon and cake plus tons of lemonade, water and seltzer. I’d say the parents/babysitters are as much as the kids (as they were mostly standing/sitting around the food and kids were running around playing). 
It cost me maybe $150 for everything, I prepped the fruit and veg just before and cooked the chicken (from Trader Joe’s). Pizzas were $70 and I’d generously estimate $80 for everything else. [/quote]

Forgot that there were chips, too! 
And we were fine with dropping off kids (some parents did) but some stayed which was also fine. These are 7/8 year olds so not fully independent but able to hang in a group just fine. Of course we were also at a park so we didn’t shell out $$$$ for a play space but the kids had a ton of fun with the sprinklers, the play structures and playing soccer and basketball. It was so easy!
