Tips for Dealing with Allergies and Special Events

Here are some tips for dealing with allergies and special events. Also take a look at my post about How to Deal With Allergies and Dietary Restrictions

What to do about allergies at kids’ birthday parties or other events

Talk to the host(ess) beforehand and explain your situation.

Ask about the food and drinks that will be served as well as any favors or candy.


Offer to bring food for your child, or if they would like to contribute something then give them specific options or recipes that they can use.

If your child’s allergy is so severe that even cross contamination is an issue then I would strongly urge you to bring your child’s food even if the hostess offers, and explain to them why.

(We have attended several parties where the hostess made sure that my daughters had a special party favor they could have. It was very much appreciated!)
