Children’s birthday parties have morphed from the simple, home-based occasions into elaborate and prestigious events complete with themes and anything from limos to exclusive, one-day affairs. Today, children’s parties are no longer just party hats and cake but are taking on variously creative forms. Creativity has been the key element in children’s birthday parties then and now.

With most parents indeed willing to shell out, kiddie parties are rapidly moving out of the home to a wide range of fully customised celebrations.
