Would your son go to a fairy party?

My daughter is turning 5 and wants a fairy party at a fairy shop. We were thinking of inviting her whole class, the majority of which are boys, about 70%.If your son was invited would you think it was inappropriate? I am thinking perhaps calling it a fairy and something (?) party.

Not inappropriate at all. My son wouldn't be interested. He never did the sparkly fariy thing. Lots of boys do though.

Maybe say its a fairy & wizards party if your worried about the boys not liking fairies.

No they would hate that. Why not make it a pirate and fairy party? That he would enjoy.

My son is only 3, but he'd love it! I'm not sure what older boys are like...

My nephew #1 would be in 7th heaven! #2 would go for cake. (he however would also go to a party at the sewerage farm if there was cake so that somewhat invalidates his opinion!)

My son would love it! Some kids would screw their noses up but that would help me trim out the kids I'd be happy mine not be besties with.
