Child Party Planner...

"Child Party Planner"
Written By Jeff Schuman

So you would like to go into business for yourself but don't
have a lot of startup money. How about being the person who
organizes and provides children's birthday parties? Just think,
you would have a job that is all fun and games. Well, maybe not
quite that, but it sounds good. I'm talking about becoming a
child party planner!

Now days, when for most families it takes two incomes to pay the
bills, getting ready for a child's birthday party can be rather
a hectic time and many parents have resorted to taking their
child and their child's guests to a fast food joint for a party,
rather than having the traditional kid's birthday party. 

For the same amount of money, maybe even for less, you could
offer them a much nicer party, with a clown or a magician and
with games in a more traditional style. 

With a bit of searching on the internet you could learn enough
to be a pretty good clown or magician. If you'd rather not play
this part chances are you have a friend or family member who
would be ham enough to jump at the chance to do this and would
be really good at it. 

If you have the room at your home you might even want to give
parents the option of you coming to their home or bringing the
children to "the party place". This has endless possibilities. 

If you have a large backyard you could create a portable
miniature golf course that could be set up and dismantled easily
for older children's parties. Oh, not on the level of the
commercial miniature golf courses of course, but something that
would certainly be impressive and enjoyable for a child's
birthday party. 

This is the kind of home business in which you could involve
your children also. How about hiring them as junior assistants.
They would be more amiable to the idea of their things being
used for the parties if they felt that they were a part of the
business. And they would be on their very best behavior if they
felt that they were contributing rather than possibly feeling
that they were in competition with these other children for
mom's or dad's attention.  

Being a child party planner offers all kinds of business opportunities
for the person who wants to have fun and make money with their
own home business!
