    Homemade pizzas a really good idea - the kids love doing them!!!

  • My daughter had a Witch Party (Murder Mystery style party) for her 12th birthday they loved dressing up as witches it was a great success, as it's so near to halloween the witch costumes are about in abundance.


    Hope this helps

    ;)
  • I did Hotdogs for my son's party recently and they wend down great with everyone, easy to make and cheap too. Popcorn is always a hit, you can get popcorn bags on ebay. A movie theme is quite cheap to do, have fun.

    A thought or two, if you don't mind! :-)

    For inexpensive food: get the girls to make their own individual pizzas - choosing toppings.

    There are kits (inexpensive) for the girls to make their own perfume concoctions and soaps, which your daughter's guests could take home as their party favour.

    Have a great time.

    Thanks Angua2

    Can you tell me where you can buy the kits to make perfume concoctions and soaps, I have never seen them, they sound really good.

    You just might be lucky enough to find a Boots with the tail-end of the sale. Some posters have been getting make-up reduced to silly prices.
  • Forgot to say teddies were £1 each!!
