Children’s birthday parties are traditionally full of plastic party bags, balloons, and the obligatory black sack full of disposable tableware at the end. Or do they have to be?
Here’s a little list of ideas to keep your child’s birthday party as easy, fun, plastic free, and low waste as possible. Oh, and cheap too!
1) Choose fabric bunting or paper pom poms and fan decorations.
2) Make your own food and buy in bulk to avoid unnecessary packaging
3) Serve food on reusable tableware.

4) Ditch plastic, disposable tablecloths, and choose a reusable alternative.
5) Offer paper party bags filled with sweets or a small single gift.
To make your party more affordable:
🎉Instead of the whole class, why not invite only a few close friends.
🎉Hold it at home or have a picnic at the park.
🎉Swap an entertainer for traditional party games and craft activities.
