I’ve had all my communions at home, some food and a bouncy castle. My daughter, now 13, told me that when she went into school the girls were talking about the day(s) around the communion. Some did like us and were home with a bouncy castle etc. Others spent up to 3days going round the aunts/uncles/friends/etc. The ones who were going from house to house thought my daughter and others like her were so lucky to get to stay home and have fun. Mind you she only wore the dress for about 2hrs in total on the day……back to shorts and tshirt when she came home. But I knew that would happen and expect the same for my son’s communion too. But sure once the children enjoy it I’m easy going.
