Share the Costs and Save your Cash


Do you have two kids with Birthdays close together? Combining Birthdays and sharing expenses can save you money or allow you to throw a bigger event than you thought you could. Your prospects for sharing are expanded when you consider:

* Siblings
* Cousins
* Friends (theirs or yours)
* Classmates
* Kids from the Neighborhood
* Coworkers

Not only will you save on the cost by combining parties, you will save time, energy and efforts by sharing responsibilities planning and hosting your party.

Remember, the Birthday Boys or Girls do not have to be turning the same age or share the exact date. Teens and toddlers may not be the best combination unless it's family, but a few years separation in age is fine. Be sure you plan entertainment and activities that are age appropriate or will appeal to all ages.
