Toddler party planning mistakes to avoid
Almost every difficult toddler party has the same handful of causes. They're easy to avoid once you know them.
Making it too long
Three hours is an hour and a half too many for most under-fives. Two hours ends while everyone is still enjoying themselves.
Ignoring nap times
A party that starts at 1pm will collide with naps for half your guest list. Late morning or mid-afternoon usually works better.
Leaving the room until the day
Clearing the play space the night before means setup is quick and you're not moving a sofa while the first guests arrive.
