Dear Forumites,

I need you help regarding ideas for my son's party.

He's turning 7 and wants to invite the whole class.

Magician, clown ... not his thing.

Maybe streetdance?

He is dreaming of horse riding or go-cart, but that's just not

on for 20 kids.

Last year hubby and l did the entertainment for the gang, but

our offspring wants something cool (not his parents).

Ideas that won't break the bank?

How about a pizza and cupcake party? The kids can make their own pizza's toppings and decorate their own cupcakes.

Or something else craftsy, you can get loads of bits from local craft shops/pound shops and The Works and the kids can make things to their hearts content. You can get cheap plates from Ikea and ceramic paints and let the kids create master pieces and you wont have to worry about party favours as they can take all their creations home!


Best of luck whatever you do!

Hi - just saw your post and thought I'd share details of the entertainer we had at my son's 7th birthday party yesterday (I have just recommended him in the classified section):


We booked James from Press Play (http://www.pressplay.org.uk/) for my son's 7th 'circus skills' birthday party. James was absolutely fantastic and I really wanted to recommend him on here. James kept 25 children enthralled and entertained for 2 hours and everyone had a go at everything from peackcock feather balancing, pedal-go riding, diabaolo, juggling, plate-spinning, and scarf juggling.


James was highly entertaining, great at building confidence in the kids and managed to keep them completely absorbed in the activities the whole way through. He was also very funny which is always a bonus! Even the adults couldn't resist joining in. Contact details are on his website above. Just brilliant - Thanks James!!

Thank you for all your recommendations - keep them coming!


Regarding the DKHP, read it's open for kids from 8 years onwards. My group will be between 6 and 7 years old.

Will they accept that?

And will they open the playground for a party at a weekend?

I guess I should just call them, but if anybody knows ...

Thank you Madmum!


You can email us on dkhap@btconnect.com for availability & more info-but that age range is absolutely fine. Sometimes with the younger ones a few more parents just need to stay.


if you call us on 0207-274-6197 after 2 you can talk to us also.


Thanks so much x

    • Another bite for JAGS ( James Allen Girls school) classes are excellent too. There is also Dulwich boys but less light and airy )might be better nor as haven’t been for a while) 
    • Photos. Every single piece of litter in that photo (if you enlarge it you can see lots more pieces) was dropped by the bin men in the background. I don't blame them - it would destroy their backs to pick it all up. Perhaps they should try to not drop so much litter in the first place...  These photos were taken on the 1st March - a Saturday. The street cleaner, who does an excellent job around Underhill Road and Melford Road, bags up the rubbish and leaves them on a Thursday generally. They are supposed to be collected the same day or the next day at the latest. They weren't collected. The first photo was November. It was a very large number of poo bags. I reported it to Southwark but they took 3 days to collect it. In the meantime the bags were squashed and the faeces was spread everywhere, photo 2. It would mean that everyone who walked along that bit of road will have spread it a bit further, along with the vehicles, so that it went into a lot of people's houses.  Over to you Sue. In this photo you can see the litter that was dropped by the bin men (I feel bad as they are really nice and work really hard often going into people's properties to get the bins that weren't put out - usually at a semi-jog speed; it must be exhausting and its not their fault that Southwark doesn't give them enough time to do their job properly. Maybe they should sack their team of EDF astro-turfers to save some money?), the split blue bag with some birds sorting the contents on the pavement, and the refuse truck in the background. I don't blame the workers, I blame Southwark. I am also annoyed at you, Sue, for saying this is an exaggeration and is basically a lie; something you do all over the forum (along with the cycling trolls). I have a lot more pictures too.
    • No need to provoke you since you respond constantly to everything. It is not a gross exaggeration - I took photos. Do you not like people answering back? A bit head girl aren't you. Unkempt roads and weed-lifted pavements with dog faces bags all over the place - when the blue bags, which are regularly not collected by the LA, are split open by foxes. Again, I have photos.
