@mia.schmidt: Okay, so, deep breaths everyone. My Wyatt (he’s 9 now, feels like just yesterday he was Sofia’s age, just a tiny one!) has officially declared he wants a “full-on construction site” birthday party this year. Not just, like, a few diggers, but the whole nine yards – hard hats, safety cones, dirt piles (fake,…
@kennedy_bian Hey GINYOU fam! Long-time lurker, first-time poster! So, we’ve got a big birthday coming up for Kai, who’s turning 11 next month. He’s absolutely obsessed with F1 right now, especially Max Verstappen (which, honestly, is kinda cute to watch him get so excited). We’re planning a whole race car theme, and I’m trying to…
Hey Ginyou Party Crew! Okay, so I’m already deep into planning Finn’s 4th birthday party for July. Yes, July! My husband Anthony says I’m crazy, but you gotta start early, right? I’ve been scouring Pinterest, naturally, for ideas. Finn is OBSESSED with superheroes right now – Cap, Iron Man, you name it. He even sleeps…
Hey Ginyou Fam! Bianca here, from blustery Milwaukee! Man, just recovered from Sofia’s 5th birthday party – it was a Frozen bash, naturally. Every little girl her age is obsessed, right? So, finding good frozen party ideas for girls was my mission for a solid month. My little princess Sofia absolutely *had* to have a…
@maya_partymom: Oh my goodness, GINYOU Party Peeps! You HAVE to help me! My sweet Aurora, who just turned three, has gone FULL-ON Hello Kitty obsessed! Like, she eats off a Hello Kitty plate, sleeps with a Hello Kitty blanket, and her tiny little backpack for preschool? You guessed it – Hello Kitty! 😍 Her birthday…
Baby Shark Party for My Three-Year-Old! What are YOUR go-to supplies? @addison.rivera: Hey GINYUParty fam! My little Jude (my youngest, who just turned 3, not the 10-year-old Jude, haha!) is OBSESSED with Baby Shark, and we’re planning a small-ish party for him next month. As a daycare owner with five kids of my own running…
@marisol89: Hey everyone in the GINYOU Party Community! Marisol here, foster mom from Chicago – it’s been one of those weeks where the wind off the lake is just wild, and traffic, don’t even get me started. My sweet Aurora is turning 4 this weekend, and she is absolutely obsessed with Baby Shark. We’re doing…
@naomidoesparties Hey everyone! Hope you’re all having a great week. I’m hitting a wall with party planning for Caleb’s (my 9-year-old, Milo is 12 and Robert is 1) upcoming birthday. We’re doing a farm animal theme here in Charlotte – he’s obsessed with our German Shepherd, Mochi, and really wants a petting zoo party this…
@the_real_leo: Alright, GINYOU fam, Leo from Austin here. Usually, my party planning is pretty locked down. I’ve got spreadsheets for RSVPs, menu planning, activity rotations, even a sub-tab for balloon inflation schedules. Piper’s 4th birthday is coming up, and she’s deep in her Moana phase, so obviously, we’re doing a Moana party. Easy, right? Wrong….
Lincoln Flores needs your help! @lincoln.flores: HELLO GINYOU PARTY PEOPLE! 🙏 You guys are lifesavers, seriously! Okay, so it’s T-minus SEVEN DAYS until Liam’s 8th birthday bash and you KNOW he wants a full-on carnival theme. 🎪🎈🎡 We’re talking popcorn machine, those little ring toss games I cobbled together from PVC pipe (thanks for the…
