CHILDREN'S birthday parties are a headache for most parents, but for celebrities it often carves a hole in their finances.

The bashes have got increasingly lavish over the years, even when the child at the centre isn't old enough to remember what is going on.

Lauryn Goodman, 31, pulled out all the stops to celebrate the 4th birthday of son Kairo - who she shares with footballer Kyle Walker, 33. He was not in attendance.

Seemingly determined to prove her WAG credentials, she splashed out on a towering cake, huge balloon towers, and an inflatable slide as well as a stylist and professional videographer.

Kids were treated to a cupcake and popcorn, plus grazing boards that she had ordered from Olive Blossom Grazing.

She hired 14 party planners to ensure everything went off without a hitch, who she thanked in a gushing social media post.

Private jet trip

Kim Kardashian, 43, is known for her lavish lifestyle, and that extends to her children, too.

For eldest daughter North's ninth birthday, the reality star made use of her $150M private jet to whisk the child and her pals away to a luxury glamping retreat in Idaho.

The inside of the plane was decorated with cobwebs and each guest go two pillows shaped like trees to keep comfortable on the flight.

Once at the location, zip lining, water tubing, waterskiing, and other outdoor activities.

Rather than sleeping outdoors, everyone was given a tent inside which was full of flannel blankets and pillows plus new wilderness themed pyjamas.

Former TOWIE star Ferne McCann, 33, decided one party was simply not enough for her eldest child Sunday.

Instead, the youngster, six, was given two different bashes to celebrate her new age.

The first was a Barbie themed party where Sunday was treated to a makeover from makeup artists dressed as the iconic doll.

She was wrapped up in a pink robe as she got her nails done and glitter applied to her face.

The second party for little Sunday was a Harry Potter themed extravaganza.

Guests were treated to wizard themed treats, a goodie bag, a cart of endless sweets, and a visit from Hermione Granger.

David, 48, and Victoria Beckham, 50, aren't known for their frugality - especially when it comes to their only daughter, Harper.

For her sixth birthday in 2017 they hosted a garden party to celebrate her changing age.

A plethora of sweet treats were on offer, and guests could even decorate them to suit their own tastes.

Harper was also treated to tea at Buckingham Palace, for which she dressed up as Elsa from Frozen.

During the visit to the royal home, Harper met Princess Eugenie and the moment was capture on camera by her doting parents.

David later clarified that it was an event for something else but it seemed a lovely way to mark his daughter's birthday.

She also bought a classic balloon display and cardboard cutouts for her to photograph the tot in front of.

Tamara's other daughter Serena has also been treated to similarly lavish bashes.

She has most recently come under fire for buying a sloth for Sophia as a 10th birthday present.
