It really depends on the age..
But it's always fun to do something different to surprise them and wow their friends.
It they are younger then:Try doing something different and exciting, and think outside the box to find something that will surprise your kid. It would be fun and memorable to have a magician or cosplay super heroes or princess at the party. I found a great website that allows you to view talented and affordable children's performer.
If they are an older teen then: Find out what their favourite music/band is and then hire a cover band or a DJ to play their favourites and bring the mood of the party up!
