Party in a box (and no, it's not wine.)

Throwing parties for kids can be daunting. I'm no Martha.  And I know that my sister, who has 3 girls and a full time job, can't always get out to buy the right decorations and supplies necessary for properly representing true love and devotion which we all know parties are symbolic of in New York.  The more expensive - means the more we love you.   So one year I thought I'd send her the whole thing - everything (except us family on the other coast :(  and I found the best site to buy this "party in a box."   Birthday in a Box has many different collections for girls and boys - all in the same theme. There are animal parties (horses - omg breathe!), butterflies, movies, characters, princess / prince, sports, dinosaurs etc.  So you can get a tropical fish pinata, tropical fish games & favors, tropical fish plates & cups, streamers, sippy cups, candles and tropical fish invitations. Even stuff for sleepovers: the kids can personalize their own pillowcases or color their own dinosaurs! Everything - literally - except the cake and the kids. I have this site bookmarked because sometimes for each birthday I just send a couple of the games/favors to her house since there always seems to be more than her 3 kids running around. She has to make sure she recognizes the ones she puts to bed.
