The gaiety imparted by a few favors, crepe paper decorations, e house full of little friends and a cake ell bis own, these are the things a child will remember so pleasantly for a long time. Birthday party menus depend mainly upon the age of the children. Very simple food is the order of the day for children of three or four; and for children of fiva or six, the food is only slightly more elaborate. Children from 8 to 10 and older may have things such as lamb chop or hamburgers for the main dish, but Its still important to plan to serve only familiar foods for little guests. Ice cream and cake are essentials at a birthday party no matter what the age group. For the younger children, however, serve only plain Ice cream such as vanilla, and a very simple, not too rich cake, so there will be no digestive upsets. knew that his safety depended upon what he would be able to do within the next few minutes.
