From
deciding to have a Theme Party for Kimi who turns 5 Years old this year, to
source for ideas and then to do the preparations, and finally to get the things
done, it actually took me less than 2 weeks to get ready from the Party's date.
Initially I never thought of having this Birthday Party for him and it was
really a very last minute decision. After some considerations and discussions
with Hubby and my siblings, we had decided to do it in Pontian since we will be
travelling back over the weekend for my maternal Grandma’s 80th Birthday
dinner.
We invited 4
other Kimi’s cousins (which includes of my cousin’s kids) together with Kimi
and Nico to make it a total of 6 Little VIP Guests. So I have prepared
everything in 6 sets for each of them.
1) Party Packs x 6 sets
- Inclusive
of one box of Ninjago Toy, one Kinder Bueno Egg and 2 small packs of Teddy Bear biscuits in each bag.
- Party Bags
from Daiso.
Spent: RM48.60

out myself and to stick it on cotton string with glue.

Spent:
RM35.70
Total Amount Spent on Materials for the whole
Preparations – RM110.70
6) Ninjago T-shirts
This was the
most challenging task I met throughout the whole preparations process. I almost
wanted to buy the Ninjago’s design from the Internet, to buy a white colour
T-shirt and to send it for hot-printing at a T-Shirt Printing Shop after I
failed a few times to find the T-Shirt at different shopping malls and local
‘Pasar Malam’.
Finally, I
ordered the T-shirts (one for Kimi and one for Nico) from 'Taobao' online with
my colleague’s assistance but in between with some obstacles as well. Anyway, I
finally got the T-Shirt on time and I am very satisfied with the shirt’s
designs and materials despite all the refunds and re-order processes twice.
Spent:
RMB125.00 ≈ RM65.00
This small little preparation to me is a great
achievement for myself as I am a Mummy who has no sense of art at all. I
finally did it all in 5 nights after putting Kimi to sleep. Hope Kimi will like
this "NINJAGO"
Theme Party which I have prepared for him on this coming Sunday! Hope that this
idea of mine can work out smoothly and the kids will have loads of FUN!
