The Australian Women's Weekly. KIDS' Perfect Party Book.Australia: ACP Books, 2007.
My personal feeling about parties is that the pictures of the event should be great and so serve as excellent memories of a fantastic day. The Australian Women's Weekly KIDS' Perfect Party Book aims to help parents organise a picture-perfect party and still be able to enjoy the day as much as the little people. By following the subtle hints and tips suggested throughout the book, your party photos are sure to be remarkable!
Within the pages of the KIDS' Perfect Party Book, you will find thorough instructions for 10 different themed parties for boys and girls from 2 to 10 years of age.
The themes covered are:
* sugar & spice
* young chef
* ghosts and spooks
* glitz and glamour
* fairies
* wizards & witches
* jungle beat
* celebrity party
* by the sea
* disco
Unlike some party books that originate overseas, KIDS' Perfect Party Book has sensible recommendations as to where to look for the paraphenalia suggested for each party, so you won't be left pulling your hair out wondering where you will find the South African equivalent to whatever has been advised.
All recipes quote metric measurements and are very comprehensive. However, if you prefer imperial measurements, a conversion chart is supplied. What is especially handy, for the parent who wants to get as much done before hand as possible, storage times are given alongside each recipe, so you know how long before the big event you can bake your goodies without them going off.
Apart from the theme-specific party foods attached to each party description KIDS' Perfect Party Book has an added extra: a collection of well-loved, tried and tested, child-approved party treats with easy to follow recipes. From sausage rolls to candied popcorn, your little party guests will have very happy tummies if you offer them any of the delightful treats listed. As for birthday cake tips, the KIDS' Perfect Party Book goes so far as to explain the best ways to get the best results when baking your own cakes. From pan preparation to baking more than one cake at a time, you can't go wrong with the KIDS' Perfect Party Book as your trusty guide.
And just when you're convinced that this really is the perfect party book, it gets better. Tucked away in the back cover is a pattern sheet with traceable patterns for cakes, decorations, and invitations that have been beautifully photographed and displayed between the covers of this highly recommended party planning book. Truly, all the schlep of planning the perfect party for your little one has been swept away with this super celebration manual. You can't go wrong having the KIDS' Perfect Party Book in your party planning library.
