November 22, 2010 by: Lise RinaWhen you want to celebrate your child’s First Communion you want to make sure that the celebration is both meaningful and joyful. This is because it is such a great occasion for your child to demonstrate their first connection with God. Commemorate the occasion with a fun First Communion party. This party will show the world the true commitment your child is making.
When children are between the ages of 6 and 12 years old they sometimes have a communion party. When they make their First Communion many faiths believe that this is an important commitment that they are making with God. There will be a lot of different ages at the party so you need to plan appropriately. You should try and make it a kid friendly party and also allow the parents to have fun. Use the following ideas as options for your party planning.
o Have a barbecue at your home or the park. Where you have it will depend on how many people you are inviting and how big your backyard is. Make this barbecue very kid friendly by having fun games and even a jumper for them to play in. Make fun food like hot dogs, hamburgers and a lot of fun desserts.
There are many kid friendly pizza places that will help you with your party planning. They even take reservations. Allow them to help you plan so you order the correct amount of food and places to sit down. The kids will love running around and playing fun games.
You can get very formal and rent a hall or large room at a facility to have a big and festive communion party. Hire a fun DJ that will play kid friendly songs and do games for all ages. This will allow your child to get dressed up and feel special. Most communion parties are like this.
Another great idea is to just take you child and a few of their closest friends to a park that they love to go to. Many amusement parks are fun to go to and don’t cost as much as having a huge party. Plus, your child will make a lot of great memories.
Once you have made up your mind on the party that you want to plan then you need to send out invitations to let everyone know about the party. You should send these out several months prior to the party to give everyone a chance to make plans. The invitation itself can include some nice photos of your child and maybe their favorite Bible verse. These are great keepsakes and everyone loves to receive them.
So make this time a special moment in their life. Have a fun communion party that is very kid friendly and will still give the adults a fun time, too. Plan the party with all in mind and it should go very well. Make the celebration a time they won’t soon forget.
