How to Throw a Parent's Day Surprise Party

Parent's Day falls on the fourth Sunday in July each year. Parent's Day is a day for children to show their appreciation for both of their parents on the same day. Some children decide to throw their parents a surprise party to observe the holiday. With a little help from an adult and a little planning, a surprise party is a fun way to celebrate Parent's Day.

Instructions

1. Save money for your Parent's Day surprise party. You may have to do odd jobs for neighbors or relatives to make some money. If your parents ask what you are saving up for, tell them it's something special.

2. Ask an adult friend to help you plan your Parent's Day surprise party. Make sure that the adult knows that it is a surprise party for your parents.

3. Pick a time, location and theme for your party. This will help you know what supplies you will need to make the surprise party a success.

4. Have the adult who is helping you make the reservations for you at the location you picked for your party. Some places may require a deposit or a signature from an adult to make the reservation.

5. Invite your parent's friends to the surprise party. You can have the adult who is helping you help with this too. Make sure that everyone invited knows that it is a surprise party so that no one will ruin the surprise by telling your parents.

6. Decorate the place where you are having your party. Make sure that you get there early enough to have the decorating finished before guests arrive. The adult helping you can help you figure out how to get to the location without your parents finding out about the party.

7. Get your parents to the location of the party. Have one of their friends make up a story and bring them to the location. Make sure that you know when you need to hide so that you can surprise your parents. The person bringing your parents to the location can send a text message to someone at the party to let you know when they are almost there.

Tips & Warnings

• Never lie to your parents. If one of your parents finds out about the party, ask them to keep it a secret from the other parent. You can ask the parent who knows about the party help you plan the party.
