👥 258 discussionsSpiderman Party for my 10-year-old’s Bday – Need your best tips, GINYOU fam! @kennedy92: Hey everyone! Kennedy here from Louisville. So, my sweet Ruby is turning 10 next month, and guess what? She’s suddenly decided she wants a full-blown Spiderman party. My other daughter, Ellie (11), is all for it too. I usually pride myself…
Hey party people! William Walker here, checking in from sunny Dallas, TX. My niece Luna (3) and nephew Arjun (6) are obsessed with all things farm right now, so naturally, we’re planning a big ol’ farm-themed birthday bash next month. I’ve got my spreadsheets all laid out – guest list, food, activities, you name it…
Hey GINYOU Party Community! @brandon.rossi: Hey everyone! It’s Brandon from Indy here, and I’m already getting a little misty-eyed thinking about Emma’s upcoming 3rd birthday party. My niece, Emma, she’s turning three, and honestly, where does the time go? Just yesterday she was a tiny little peanut, and now she’s running around demanding “more sparkles!”…
Hey GINYOU fam! Serenity Wagner here from Richmond. Milo just turned 11, and we went all out with a superhero theme. You know how it is with pre-teens, they’re too cool for some things but still secretly love the classics. So, no baby stuff, but definitely still into the Marvel/DC vibe. My biggest challenge this…
Hey GINYOU Crew – Samuel from Richmond here! Alright, so my wife Keiko and I are planning a big 40th birthday bash for her cousin, and he’s super into old Western movies. Think classic Clint Eastwood, not necessarily new-school Yellowstone. We decided on a “Wild West Saloon” theme, which is great because Richmond has some…
Carnival Birthday Thank You Cards – My Brain is Fried! @mila92: Hey GINYOU fam! Mila Kim here from Milwaukee! My brain is officially fried trying to plan this combined first birthday for Caleb and second birthday for Max. Yes, I know, I always over-buy supplies and start planning way too early, but this time it…
Yuki Ferreira here, a desperate aunt in Louisville, KY! Oh my goodness, y’all. I am knee-deep in planning Wyatt’s second birthday party, and I’m hitting a wall. My little nephew, Wyatt, he’s just obsessed with anything that goes “moo” or “oink” right now. Seriously, the kid lives for farm animals. So, naturally, we decided on…
@leahdoesparties: Hey GINYOU fam! Leah here, fueled by my third cup of coffee and seriously needing some inspo. Ruby, my sweet little two-year-old, is obsessed with fairies right now. Like, absolutely OBSESSED. So, obviously, her second birthday party HAS to be fairy-themed. Problem is, my budget is more “dollar store chic” than “enchanted forest elaborate,”…
Okay, Ginyou fam, I need some serious help. My son, Kai, is turning 8 next month, and guess what? He’s still obsessed with Baby Shark. Seriously. I thought we were past this. I mean, he’s seven now, almost eight, and still singing “doo doo doo doo doo doo” at the top of his lungs. My…
@carmen_fisc: Okay, GINYOU fam, I need to know I’m not alone here. Milo just turned 8, and for months, all he could talk about was a Spiderman party. Specifically, a Spiderman party where everything was red and blue and had webs. I said, “Sure, buddy, whatever you want!” But then I started planning. And I…
