I'm having my son's christening next month, he'll be 22 months.
We've invited quite a few of his friends, most of whom are a similar age to him, but I don't want them all getting bored at the party afterwards.
We're going to have music and a dance floor for them to run riot, and I'll get some balloons. Can anyone think of anything else that would be good for entertaining them? We can't afford to get a magician or anything like that.

Why not just do a few simple party games such as musical statues or a pass the parcel? To be honest we went to a wedding reception recently and my lo danced from 8 til 11 with only a very occcasional visit to the choclate fountain to keep his energy up. He was just turned 2 at the time. I think they will keep each other entertained more than you think.

I agree, party games would be good. And the music and lights will keep them entertained.
