5 year old princess party...can boys be invited?

I know I know....a dumb question but my daughter keeps saying how she wants all her little school friends at her party (there are only 10 of them and 5 are boys)....should they get an invite? And mind you...SHE is the one that wants this princess theme and it's her first real birthday party.

Of course!
Just throw some knight stuff in there like cardboard swords and goblets and they will love it. This party has some great ideas.

absolutely.  Either do knight stuff like pp said or you could do a prince/princess theme so everyone is included.

Of course!  But make sure the boys feel included.  I was the only or one of few girls at several Nintendo-Ninja Turtles-Superhero birthday parties and I felt left out and lame.  I like the knight/prince add-on.  Slay the dragon and all that.

my niece had a princess and pirate party.  It was adorable.  The boys loved the swords and pirate hats.

Totally agree.

I made boys come to my My Little Pony birthday when I turned 5. I think my mom got them Hot Wheels stuff.

I vote the boys get capes. And I think all the kids should get a chance to slay the dragon:)

I'm doing a combined princess and superhero party for my daughter and my friend's son.  We're inviting everyone to wear their costumes.  My daughter will dress up as a princess superhero - tiara and cape!

I think it would be fine to have the boys there, especially if that is what your daughter requested. As other posters said, having a prince and princess party would be great.
