I chose to leave the note today because Friday is take your kid’s sheets home &amp; wash day. I still have time to invite more kids if LO wants.</p> <p>@LindsayInNY: hope your invites go well! LO’s old daycare is 9 hours away. I wish those kids could come, but he’s transitioned beautifully. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2875459 Fri, 08 Mar 2019 09:01:40 +0000 Foodnerd81 2875459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: so you left a note asking for contact info to email the invite? That’s genius, so now if you get no response you know they aren’t coming, and if they respond you invite them and have a way to follow up. </p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2875455 Fri, 08 Mar 2019 08:46:53 +0000 LindsayInNY 2875455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We’ll be in the same boat. Changing daycare April 1 and her birthday is the end of June. Plan to (hopefully) invite classmates from both! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2875450 Fri, 08 Mar 2019 08:34:28 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2875450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>😬 Eek! So LO has been at his new school for almost 3 weeks now and his teachers told me he became fast friends with a couple of the kids. This morning I put a note in their cubbies with a little guidance from LO- several people were firm NOs he didn’t want them at his party. So far one mom already sent me a text with her info for email invite. I sure hope they can make it.</p> <p>Bday party stress for a nervous Nellie like me is rough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866107 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 09:45:48 +0000 Lindsay05 2866107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: haha agreed. But yes I would invite a few new friends for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866106 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 09:41:50 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2866106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lindsay05: If we had local family or local family-friends with kids I’d probably opt for a family party too since that sounds like more fun for me especially to chat with people I already know and like. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866105 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 09:25:55 +0000 Lindsay05 2866105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I personally would not want to go but for LOs sake I would go for sure. That being said, at 3 we usually just did a family party. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866104 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 09:24:31 +0000 KT326 2866104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but only because we never go to daycare birthday parties. Our weekends are family time. We didn’t start going to birthday parties until my oldest was in kinder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866096 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 08:37:43 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2866096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great, I hope you the new daycare mamas will be like you all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866095 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 08:18:46 +0000 Pollywog 2866095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. We made an effort to get to all of them </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866092 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 07:54:54 +0000 babypugs 2866092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If free, definitely! Honestly at 3 I had no idea who any of the kids were and wouldn't have even realized who the "new kid" was, so we'd be there if possible. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866089 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 07:45:06 +0000 SweetCaroline 2866089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would make more of an effort to go to the new kid's birthday party, especially if the family was new to town. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866086 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 07:26:18 +0000 Foodnerd81 2866086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably, unless there were a lot of bdays all around the same time. Then I might pick and choose. But i like to let the other parents too. </p> <p>We got invited to a bday party the week before my daughter started school. I waited until school started and we met the kid to rsvp but yes we went. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866085 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 07:24:33 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2866085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I didn't already have plans, we would go. I don't know most of the kids in my 4 yr old's room and they have been together for over a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866082 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 07:15:54 +0000 erinbaderin 2866082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would definitely go. For me, any chance to get out of the house and have plans on the weekend that keeps the kids entertained is a good one. Frankly I also can’t name at least 1/2 of the kids in my almost three year old’s class anyway, I might have no idea he was a new kid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/new-kid-in-class-birthday#post-2866081 Fri, 11 Jan 2019 06:53:28 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2866081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So the awesome Real Housewives Pick a City :silly: 3rd birthday party I planned is not happening now that we are moving. LO is very much into celebrating birthdays. Curious George and Berenestein Bears birthday themed books are in heavy rotation at bed time. :grin: I’d like to still throw him a party. He will be barely two months in at his new daycare by the time of the actual toddler-playground-park-pavilion-no gifts- party and invites would go maybe 5 weeks into him starting class. Be honest, would you attend the new kid’s party? </p>
