Ozzy's 3rd Birthday

Ozzy's 3rd birthday party held at Jollibee in Ayala Center Cebu was a success. Even with the last minute cancellations of many kids (because of colds!!) a good number of kids still turned up. I wanted to have 20 or more kids but only about 18 came which was fine really. Ozzy was - as usual SHY. He would not let go of my hand. And at some point told me not to talk to anyone else but him! He would cover my mouth and say, "Don't say Hi Mommy". His father said Ozzy is like him this way, shy when there are lots of people.

The Jollibee birthday package is scheduled for 2 hours only. At first I thought that was really short, but you know what when kids are involved 2 hours is enough after that they get really noisy and cranky. The first 30 minutes would be waiting for the guests to arrive. This is the perfect time to mingle and talk to the guests. The next 30 minutes is for the games. Good thing the hosts and staff of Jollibee are qualified and well equipped with "enthusiasm" for this one. Then its 30 minutes for eating and then the last 30 minutes would be where Jollibee and another mascot would go out. Jollibee and Hetty danced a medly of pop songs which included Insomnia, Poker Face and Boom Boom Pow. It was so much fun. The kids enjoyed it and the adults too. After it was time for blowing the candle, then giving of loot bags. Then lastly - picture taking of course.

All in all I'd say it was money well spent. We spent time with the family and friends without so much stress and preparation in my part. Also, Ozzy and the other kids had so much fun. Not to mention he had so many gifts to open after that.
