Park Party Checklist

For all you Party Hosts Planning a Park Party this Summer, Here are some items you may need to to add to your list of things to bring with you. As a Mom, I like to be prepared for any circumstance. Better safe then sorry.

Don’t Forget to bring these essential items to the Park, they may be useful at your party:

• Heavy duty clear tape – to hang decorations, streamers, and signs.
• Scissors – Seems like you always need them when you don’t have them.
• Broom and dustpan – You never know what you will have to clean up, or shoo away.
• Ant spray – Ant hills are never nice near where kids play.
• Sun block – Better safe than sorry, Didja know it only takes 15 minutes for the harmful SUV rays to penetrate your skin.
• Mosquito repellant – Mosquito’s suck!….literally. Be prepared with repellant if your party is near a lake, tall grass, forestry areas.
• Band aids – Be prepared for Boo- Boos, just in case.  Fun colorful Themed bandages always seems to make it feel better.
• Garbage bin and/or recycle bins – If you plan to have cans or bottles water at your party, be sure to encourage recycling.  Do your part, especially at the park!
• Bottled water – Great cost efficient refreshing beverage.
• Flavored powder single serve packets like Crystal light - Makes Beverage options for guests and you don’t have to lug 7 different soda/ Juice containers to the park.
• Rope & piñata stick – A piñata is no fun if it just sits there.
• Extension cord – Handy, if there are power outlets nearby.
• Radio & kids music - MP3 Players and portable speakers are always easy to transport. Make a Party Music Playlist and let the tunes play.
• Bubble Machine – Bubbles always make for good times at any occasion.
• Fan – If it’s hot  then try to make your guests cool off near a fan.
