My daughter's 5th birthday party is coming up. Besides her 8 or 10 cousins and friends, this year we are having friends from her class. Ther are about 18 kids in the class but I am pretty sure I will only ask the girls (about half the class). She hasn't been invited to any of the boys' parties and i need to keep the numbers in control.(that's about 20 - 22 kids right now!) There are two new girls this year. We don't know them yet but I thought I should invite them. Might help them make friends...thoughts?

What can I do next?

I would invite all the class, well, I am assuming that all the family are not totally girls and that some of the relatives would be boys. So the male classmates would feel okay with being there.

I attended several birthday parties when K was in the 3 and 4 yr. old programs at Head Start and they invited the entire class. It was a lot of fun and the biggest thing that I found was that the parents had just been waiting for the opportunity to meet the other parents and were so glad to have been invited.

Definitely! That would be a wonderful thing to do. At least give them the option of coming.

Yes, if you don't invite the entire class you should invite all the girls. Kids, especially girls, feel very hurt if some are invited and some are not. This is a great way for the new girls to get to know your daughter. Who knows, it could be a future new best friend.

Every school I know of, makes it mandatory to invite all boys or all girls or the whole class. That would be so hurtful to exclude only two. I say invite them=)

If it's just "2" girls, I say invite them... That way, they can decide whether or not to come :0)

I would invite all the girls if you don't want to invite all the kids. If for some reason you don't want to invite all the girls then check with the school because most now have policies on party invitations, they either go to the whole group or you must mail them home.
