You can choose 3 boys of 6 for the first party by  =  = 20 ways.

You can choose 3 girls of 6 for the first party by  =  = 20 ways.

In total, you have 20*20 ways to choose 3 boys of 6 and 3 girls of 6 for the first party. 

The rest of the boys and the girls will participate in the 2nd party without choice.
