The "To Do" list should include tasks such as:
Send invitations
(Note: Send invitations as early as possible to allow invited guests to "RSVP". Knowing exactly how many children will attend is important when it comes to some items, but some shopping can be done before you know the exact number of guests. For example, goody bags often come in packages of 8 bags. If you've invited 24 children you'll need three packages of bags unless only 16 children plan to attend. It can be easier on you to just buy the three packages of bags, make them up, and send bags to any children who couldn't attend. In the case of items like potato chips, unless you think an awful lot of guests won't show up, you're better off just buying a "party's worth" of chips. They'll either be eaten or not, and most people can find a way to dispose of an extra bag of chips in the weeks following a party.)
