Every parent wants to make their child’s birthday party one to remember. If your child is a Minecraft fan, this book will help you do exactly that. We have the whole party process covered. From sending out the invites, to preparing the food, dreaming up games and activities, and even sending the thank you notes at the end, we’ll explain how to give everything that special Minecraft touch. We know that there are plenty of websites out there selling entire Minecraft party packs for hundreds of pounds. But we’ll show you how to achieve an even better look for a fraction of the cost. Likewise, most of the games and activities will cost no more than a few pounds in equipment, potentially saving you even more money on hiring an entertainer or a DJ. We have enough ideas to keep the kids busy through even the longest of parties!
