Son‘s 4th Birthday coming up

I guess you will all have a birthday party to plan for your almost 4 year old as well. What do you plan to do? Who are you inviting? Will you rent a space? What food is good? Will you have a theme? We are going for a gym and it will have a bouncy house but also lots of space for other activities. Any ideas?

We are practising putting clothes on more independently, writing, potty training is done, etc is there something you all did more to help them ?
