If you don't want him to spend the night, I would just show up Friday night when it starts with the car and bathing suit, towel, etc, and explain that you're just staying for the party then leaving. I'm sure they don't expect everyone to stay overnight.
You could ask about coming back Saturday morning if you want, but I wouldn't. I'd assume most of the fun stuff will be Friday night.
Um yeah. Huh? Weird. Very weird. I'd go whenever you want to go and jsut leave when you're ready to leave. I suspect that this overnight camping idea isn't going to go as well as they expect.
a bunch of 4 year olds? In tents? After lots of sugar? That's just craziness. A bunch of 7 or 8 year olds, and I'd actually think it kind of sounds fun. (for the kids, not the parents ;p)
And not to mention sitting in cardboard cars to watch a movie. Yeah, no!

This is what we're going to do whenever H gets home from work because if I have to go to this train wreck I'm dragging him with me.

Did you just get the invitation today for a party tonight? If not, they had to have known about making the cars at school ahead of time or the teacher did it for this party.

Well, uh, it's a FAMILY CAMPOUT. So YEAH. You all bring your family tent and camp out TOGETHER. Do you not love your child enough to camp out in a stranger's backyard for a night? WTH IS WRONG WITH YOU?!!!!??11!!

Clearly the best solution here is to drop your 4 year old off with his rolled sleeping bag, tent (unassembled), cardboard car, and pjs and suit in a garbage bag. Peel your car away while shouting, "great party, see you tomorrow at 2!" Get drunk, sleep in.

Just to be clear, the entire list preceding is contained within the garbage bag, correct?
Yes. Contractors size. If tent poles protrude, double bag it

We made an appearance. Watched the magic show, left before the movie. No booze. No food. Some parents really did just drop their kid off and book. I really missed out on a free sitter foe the night.
