North Shore Birthday Party Guide

Every year, we as moms, plan at least one party…our child’s birthday party! Where do you begin? How do you start? Questions you may ask yourself are:

Where and when?
Home or a venue?
What will the theme?
Who will you invite?
What type of invitations do you want?
What food, if any, will you serve?
What type of cake will you have? Or do you want cupcakes?
What decorations will you use?
What games and/or activities will you have?

There are so many decisions to make. But, like everything we do here at Macaroni Kid, we try to make your life easier. So, we have created this Birthday Party Planning Guide. Here you will find our featured companies. We have local venues, cake decorators, and photographers. Good luck and enjoy!

Guide Sponsors: Artcie

Art is one of the few activities you can do that allows you to talk, eat, drink, learn AND walk away with a “creation”. It is particularly fun within groups of kids, friends or colleagues who may not want the usual bouncy house, restaurant or potluck. We welcome the opportunity to host children’s parties, girls night out, Mother’s Clubs, Girl/Boy Scouts, Executive Team Building or any other private group you’d like to put together. We provide the art supplies according to your preference, you bring the food and drinks. While there is guidance and some instruction, there is plenty of time for socializing, sharing insights or just adding cake or wine to your art class! Regardless of your mission, get ready for some high quality hang-time. Why go to a bar or hire a princess when you can get crazy with a canvas?
