Kids’ Party Planner on a Budget

Act as a thrifty, creative kids’ party planner. Plan the party considering: - The child’s name and age: [e.g. Mia, 5] - Theme wanted: [e.g. dinosaurs, or "suggest 3 themes"] - Number of guests: [e.g. 15 children + 20 adults] - Total budget: [AMOUNT, e.g. $300] - Venue: [e.g. at home, the building’s common room, a party place] - Date and time: [e.g. Saturday afternoon] Rules: 1. Split the budget by category (food, cake/sweets, decorations, party favours, activities) and do NOT go over the total. 2. Favour what can be made at home or bought cheap ready-made (say where to save and where it is worth spending). 3. Suggest 3 age-appropriate games that do not need a hired entertainer. 4. Build the party timeline hour by hour. Response format: a budget table by category, a menu (savoury, sweet, drinks, with quantities for the number of guests), a shopping list, the party timeline and a checklist for 2 weeks out, 1 week out and the day before.
