Hunter Curtis – the son of PR juggernaut Roxy Jacenko and Oliver Curtis celebrated his fourth birthday this weekend and by celebrated we mean he had not one but two extravagantly themed parties which involved two three-tiered cakes, face painting, costumes for all the guests and all the fancy trimmings a four-year-old could want.
We’re sad to report that there didn’t seem to be an ice-cream cake or supermarket party bag in sight.
Not that we’re surprised of course – Roxy isn’t the kind of woman who does thing in halves, and she 276 percent lived up to that claim.
We’re just sitting here scratching our head, wondering what she’ll pull off for his Sweet 16th, but we digress – onto the party parties.
Roxy Jacenko came by the Mamamia offices and we asked her to teach us how to take a selfie. It was very educational.
So, from what we can glean from the wonders of Instagram – celebrations started the day before Hunter’s actual birthday on the Saturday with a construction-themed birthday party held at Sydney’s Nubo play centre.

We had a construction party for our preschool son. It was not so extravagant, but the kids had a lot of fun. We put a huge bit of Masonite on the dining table and covered it with construction figures and equipment, miniature toys. Then we made a landscape around them out of all natural treats. Filled the whole surface. Popcorn, dried fruits, natural lollies, that sort of thing, and of course, rocky road. The kids sat around it and played while eating.
We used that Masonite for a series of parties, Thomas the tank engine, under the sea, and so on. Same format, different themes. Later we used it on his top bunk instead of a mattress and used it for a cowboys and Indians set left over from another party.
All about mum being in the spotlight.
