Birthday Party Ideas for 12 year old girls

[Anonymous]

I took my daughter and a bunch of her friends to the Wharf in DC. It's obviously weather-dependent, but they could walk up and down--there were giant swings and a water/splash ground which worked well because it was beastly hot. I love that Wharf.
Then a movie in downtown DC. (We took a Lyft.)
It's a great age--they just want to be together with a grown-up kinda nearby but out of earshot.

Bowling at Pinstripes or Bowl America? The dinner at hibatchi place is a great idea.

Last year I took my daughter and her few best friends to a bowling alley and we play a few rounds had cake/open presents and then I drove them to my house for a sleepover and they had a blast.

So recommend

Agreed - 6 tops for us, but we have a very small house

Why not just invite 3 or 4 friends over for a movie night and make yourself scarce? No space is too small for a small party.

Rent out a movie theater?

Isn't cox farm more of a little kids thing? Do tweens like it?

Sorry, but tweens really are still little kids. They'll like it.

My DD liked Bowlero at that age with a few friends. You can do the party package or just rent a lane, depending on how many go.

My dad took me and 3 of my friends to Kings Dominion around that age.
