Today, after hours of organizing and spending around $300 for my three-year-old's birthday party, I realized I forgot to send out the invitations. FML

Let me clarify, since its very cold outside, I decided to rent a play area for my son and his friends. I was to send the invitations in his bag when he went to preschool, but I evidently forgot. The $300 was for everything, the cake, gifts, play area rental, food and a clown. I ended up making some last minute calls and quite a few people showed up.

$300? My birthday parties didn't exceed the cost of the cake and a balloon. Save that money for his college fund; it'll be appreciated more.

I guess Junior is going to learn the meaning of the word "disappointment" early in life.

Calm down chances are they won't even remember their 3rd birthday party in a few years anyway. No need to go overboard.

guys. it's not that much. considering she had to rent the play area and the clown buy a cake and food along with little gift bags $300 goes by quick. and if you don't want to spend that on your kids birthday then don't

guessing the 300 $ was for food and drinks for all of OP's friends because what 3 yr old has that many friends? kids don't really gain friends until they hit school. waste of money just to entertain other adults when it should be about your kid. should have just had a small family party and put that money into their future.

To everyone saying the kid won't remember, how do you honestly know the kid won't remember, do you have a kid? My son is a little over 1 and remembers a lot. Kids remember lots of things, they just don't always share what they remember. Good job Op for making the birthday a memorable one for you, the guest, and most importantly the little one.

Long-term memories don't form at that young of an age. He'll remember it next month, but not when he's 10. Besides, whether he remembers it or not, spending $300 on a little kid's birthday party is just ridiculous.

Long term memories don't start to form until ~age 3. So your son won't remember it when he's older. But if you wanna go all out and can comfortably afford it, but all means do it!!

And some people don't understand how easy it is to spend a lot of money on something like that. They also don't know how to read the OP's comments
