Birthdays close to Christmas or New Year
A child born in late December can feel their birthday gets lost in the holidays. First tip: book early, because December weekends often fill up fast. Many families celebrate on the weekend before the school holidays, or move the party to January when calendars clear.
Christmas school holidays do not start on the same dates in every canton, so check your canton's dates before sending invitations, as some classmates may be away. Some families also hold a "half-birthday" party in summer, six months later and outdoors, and keep the actual day for the family.
St Nicholas on 6 December as a party theme
For an early-December party, St Nicholas Day (Samichlaus in German-speaking Switzerland, Saint-Nicolas in Romandie) gives you a traditional theme: red cloaks and white beards for dressing up, mandarins, nuts and gingerbread on the table, and a small bag for each child to take home. Children can learn a short rhyme or song, as the custom goes.
KidsConfetti does not list St Nicholas visits. If you want a show, a magician, clown or puppet theatre can come to your home instead: Kasperlitheater Gigelisuppe (Hochfelden, ZH) from CHF 190 plus CHF 1 per km, or Le Petit Théâtre de Mister Dan (Corcelles NE), about 45 minutes for CHF 790 in Neuchâtel and CHF 990 in North Vaud, Fribourg, Jura and Bern.
