How to Include Children in a 10th Anniversary Wedding Celebration

So it's your 10th wedding anniversary. Everything's great - the guests, the date, the cake........except one thing. You have kids. Not one, but many. And they're all coming to the party. So, how do you include them? Read on to find out.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Kids.
• A partner.
• Some kid's games.
• Music for all ages.
• A great sense of humour.
• Patience - some kids are annoying.

1. Explain to your guests that this is an all-ages wedding anniversary. And make sure your spouse is OK with this too. No arguing on your 10th anniversary!

2. Have dinner first, then afterwards break out the games! Involve the kids too - have them playing games down one end of the room with some adults supervising, and then you can mingle with the guests.

3. Make the kids feel special. After all, if you have kids of your own, it's as much their day as yours. They're celebrating "mummy and daddy being together for 10 years" which is a long time to a kid.

Tips & Warnings

• Make sure everyone's ok with the idea of kids being around. Some adults can get fussy about it.
• Make sure there are no small parts that kids can swallow.
