Eco Friendly Party ideas!
With the growing awareness of us needing to make changes in our lives to help reduce our impact on the planet we have compiled some ideas for you to be able to host a more eco friendly party.
Avoid plastic/ polystyrene plates and cups. Use paper or bamboo instead
Avoid plastic Knifes, forks and spoons. again use bamboo or metal
Try not to use plastic straws for drinks but if you do prefer them, again use paper or metal
serve children their food rather than let them help them selves as children will always take more than they will eat. This will reduce food waste.
serve squash from a jug rather than individual cartons/ single use plastic bottle drinks such as fruit shoots, Capri sun or similar.
Use eco balloons, made from natural rubber and or biodegradable rather than plastic/ foil balloons.
Supply eco party bags with recyclable items, reusable gifts, plant growing kits,
Wrap birthday cake up in paper/bamboo napkins or use paper/cardboard box rather than plastic boxes.
Think about renting/hiring or borrowing room decorations and props rather than buying if they are only going to be used once and thrown away.
Avoid plastic tables cloths, either don't use at all but this is not always possible so use reusable clothes, paper/ bamboo.
