[quote=Anonymous]We never did “no gifts” parties, because we (parents) thought it was a lot of fun to get presents at parties when we were kids. So why decide that our kids shouldn’t also get to enjoy that? (Our kids never had 25 kids at a party, either). However, I also don’t think it’s hard to explain a no gifts party, even to a young child. “On your birthday, you get a gift from mom & dad. At your party, you get to have fun and cake with your friends, but we are asking friends not to bring gifts because you already have a lot of toys/some people can’t afford to buy a gift/the party if just for fun not gifts/[customize your reason here.]”[/quote]
