Trampoline Parks – Kids' Parties. A trampoline park is one of the best multi-sports party venues for a toddlers' party. It's, in the literal sense, a kids' playground, and besides being all about jumping, you'll find obstacle courses and other attractions, adding fun and excitement to any gathering.
-
Mansions – Intimate Parties. Residential homes are the best option for small parties; book a house with a pool, game room, or other child-friendly attractions. It's a plus if the property can accommodate overnight guests.
-
Photography Studios – Birthday Photoshoots. A tween who loves playing dress-up will enjoy a birthday photoshoot. A photography studio is the best backdrop for a themed photo session, with colourful props and costumes.
-
Restaurants – Birthday Lunches. A restaurant with a kid's menu is where you should hold a celebratory gathering of children and parents. Child-friendly locations usually have bounce houses and other activities to keep the young tots occupied.
-
Dance Studios – Kids' Dance Parties. A dance studio is where you should celebrate your tween's or teenager's party: throw a dance-a-thon or a ballerina-themed birthday for the young tots.
Top Features to Look for in a Kids Birthday Party Venue
Picking the best kids' party venue tops the to-do list when planning a birthday bash. You want to book a location that ticks all the boxes when organising a child's party, from determining if it suits your party theme to ensuring it has room for your final numbers after getting RSVPs. These guidelines of the top features a children's party space should have can point you in the right direction.
What's the maximum number of guests the venue can hold? Every venue has a maximum number of guests it can accommodate. It's especially crucial when planning a kids' party; you want to ensure the location can hold your guest list for safety purposes. Your best bet is to visit and see if a space suits your gathering and has room for all the invited children and parents.
Does the venue have fun activities? A childrens' party should have fun activities; it depends on the venue and helps if the space has everything needed to keep kids engaged. An indoor playground usually has a soft play area with foam pieces and obstacles, while an outdoor area has ball pits and swings.
Does the space have safety measures in place? Security and safety are crucial when organising a children's party. Whether one adult is in charge or an events team is overseeing the gathering, it would be best to come to you with security measures and have a safety briefing before the function.
Organising a Kids Birthday Party
Watching your child complete another round trip around the sun is joyful for every parent. That's why the occasion deserves a grand fete in the best setting, and Giggster can connect you with an ideal location.
Send Party Invites Early – Depending on the age group of the party guests, you'll need chaperons and co-hosts. So, send invites early, with all the details about the occasion; get RSVPs so you can use the head count to order food and drinks and choose a venue with capacity for your group. Also, unless you are the dedicated party host, you can use the opportunity to assign different tasks to each person.
Order the Birthday Cake – Get your customised birthday cake prepared at least one week in advance; pick it up two days before the big day. Order one or two extra cupcakes per child, which you can put in the party bags.
Schedule Activities – A venue with soft play areas will keep young ones busy; teens will enjoy a location with a game room or arcade games to keep teens well-occupied. Also, plan scavenger hunts, art projects, karaoke, or dance-offs.
Give Party Bags – As a thank-you gift, give favours, such as one party bag per child. Children love receiving gifts, and they'll be happy to go home with a thoughtfully curated goody bag filled with treats and small toys.
Kids Birthday Party Expenses to Plan For
Between renting a birthday space to hiring a bounce house and balloon artist, planning your child's special occasion can be costly. You can reduce costs using some of these tips and still pull off a memorable gathering:
Consider all-inclusive kids party venues.
Many venues offer party packages to make hosting a special gathering hassle-free. An all-inclusive package usually includes the A to Z of organising the big day. Everything will be handled by the in-house team, saving you money and the time it would take to locate several service providers.
Can you reduce food costs?
A buffet is a more affordable option that lets you sample various cuisines. If it's a small gathering, get family-style dishes. If you have time to create the birthday menu, order meal delivery kits or arrange for drop-off services.
Plan a small party.
Birthday parties are usually intimate affairs. Fewer guests mean less food and renting a smaller venue, which frees up money for extra surprises and gifts for the birthday child.
