The organization is much simpler than we think and we can get a great birthday with very little. When it comes to celebrating any birthday, there is no doubt that the most important is the invitations. We will do them with our son, and it will surely be a lot of fun.
As for the decoration, if it is our pool or that of a close relative, we can gather a few colored floats, inflatable balls, and some mattresses, and spread them around the pool. They will give an original touch. If the party lasts until night, we can place torches around the pool so that everything is well lit. The most advisable thing is to prepare a simple menu with cold appetizers, hamburgers, hot dogs, and sandwiches, which will be a success at any summer party.
But be careful, the temperature must be appropriate for food and drinks to be fresh and thus avoid heat deterioration. And finally, there is nothing better than a good assortment of seasonal fruits. A small skewer of fresh fruits and a few ice creams will be enough to brighten the face of the little ones. Cold drinks, fruit slushies, or fresh smoothies will come great to keep all guests well hydrated.
