Hi, my daughter, who is five, invited her teacher to her birthday party orally. I never thought to even invite her teacher, she told me that her teacher said yes. I don't know if her teacher said yes to be nice not to hurt my daughter's feelings, or if she really wants to go. She actually has 2 teachers at school. I don't know if I should ignore this, or actually send an invitation to both of her teachers. Sorry, I know this might be kind of a wierd question, any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks, =).

The teacher would probably enjoy going. I have several friends who are elementary school teachers and they LOVE being invited to non-school functions. It will depend on the school's policy whether or not she can actually go. I would just give her a quick call and ask - don't make a big deal out of it and you'll find out whether or not she was just being polite.

Well I am a teacher and honestly we usually say yes for an invitation specially if our students were the one whose inviting us but that doesn't mean that we just say yes because we are just being nice although a part of it is true. WE also say Yes because it's nice to know that your student thinks of you and wants you to be a part of her celebration. Actually a 5 year old kid must have thought of her party and the gifts your daughter is kind enough to remember her teacher. I think you should send them an invitation.

I believe the teacher was really interested in going and not just being polite about it, as your daughter was happy about inviting her and she must have liked her teacher. I do know that my daughter invited her teachers to her birthday party and informed me about it during her kindergarten days.
There's no reason to doubt the teacher's sincerity and perhaps it would help to check with your daughter whether she would like to extend the invite to the other teacher.
Being a kindergarten teacher she would be sensitive enough to tell your girl whether she would like to go or not rather than lie about it. Children seem to know when someone lies....believe me.....the kids of today are more intuitive.
May i wish your girl a Happy Birthday.

It SOUNDS like a contract to me-if NOT between you and the teacher, at least between your daughter and the teacher.
This is an exceptional life learnign experience for YOU, the teacher, AND your daughter.
To not go through with it under ANY pretense of error will confuse your daughter and that is not what she needs right now.
Go through withh the invitation (find out just who's who in the zoo first) and let her see what her invitation has done. (who knows, she might get a kick out of it and become a vivacious DC madame with a very politically connected guest list.)
On the other hand, to schwelch this bit of innocent attempt at being sociable is not a good idea.
Save a piece of cake for ME.

let see the facts here:
1- your daughter loves her teacher and that is very good thing So she invited her
2-Her teacher said yes so she love your daughter too and admired her invitation and that's good too
3- there is another teacher.
So you just invite both the teachers to be polite to the second one and if they come you all will be happy including the most important person in all of this ( your daughter)and if they didn't show up so nothing bad happened and you did what you supposed to do and the teachers will still appreciate your invitation for them.it is that simple
Thanks

Aw, that's so cute!
I would say your best bet is to call up the teacher and see how she feels about it. If she'd be happy to attend, then by all means invite her. It's your daughters party after all, so, if she'd like the teacher to be there, and the teacher's okay with it, there's no reason not to.

It seems to me that if the teacher didn't want to go, he/she could have find a way to turn down the invitation politely.

It was an invitation from a child hard to resist. So to be fair, better invite the other teacher, too.

Ur daughter is a good person.There is no need to teach good things to good person.It comes to them automatically.
So far as u are concerned..u should be happy that ur child did so.
Just formally invite both the teachers to the party.Thus the teachers will feel good and ur daughter will feel very good that she have done nothing wrong and continue doing such good things.
