Birthday party?

I'm throwing a birthday party for my quadruplets a little early this year. They will be turning 3. I'm doing it early for two reasons, one I want to do it before my daughter has her baby and two because it will be a pool party and I need to do it before it gets cold. Does this sound like a good party idea? We will have it in the backyard, we have a screened in pool with a hot-tub for the older kids who can swim. Along with a slide. But for the little ones out in the yard we will have a bunch of those little blow up pools. Can anyone show me some of those things, that aren't extremely expensive. We are also going to rent a big water slide for the older kids. This party is also for 3 of my older kids. (Gabriella will turn 8, the twins will turn 7, and the quads will turn 3) But if you can show me some of those slides that would be awesome. I'm going to put out some sprinklers also, but there will be little kids there. (16-18 months) who can get in the little pools with their parent

Birthday party?
Great party!





If you are lucky, you can find the pools marked down at Wal-mart, less than $10 each. I didn't find any for sale online though...

Reply:It sounds fun, as long as all the kids are properly supervised. Whether you have little appropriate pools for the small kids or not, you have to assume at least a few of them will not be interested in those and instead want to go for the big pool.





With that many kids, and having other stuff going on (you being the hostess for the party, for example), you may want to enlist some babysitters, possibly with lifeguard or at least CPR skills, to help with the basics of keeping young children away from the pool and other "big kid" stuff.
