Kiddie Birthday Party Planner 101

Kids party planning is nothing less than a project planning. After immense research I came up with this checklist. I stuck through it for 2 parties for age group 5 to 8. I really wonder if I will ever go through it again. The execution of that 2 hour party is exhaustive and it takes 2 days for me to recover :) Nevertheless I want to have this checklist ready.

In this Birthday party Planner template, replace 'Theme' with the theme you are going with and walah! you have a instruction set and a shopping list.
