My daughter is turning 3 but we also have 2 boys in elementary.
Can you recommend a venue for a 3yo where my big kids would also be entertained? Our friends all have preschoolers and elementary kids. Or do we have the party at a place like my gym or once upon a dream and leave big kids at home? |
At that age I’d focus on an appropriate venue for her and her friends. If your kids are early elementary, maybe something like Jumping Joeys would work for them as well. |
Focus on the birthday kid - but your best bet is Scramble or Badlands.
I just hosted a 3rd at Jumping Joeys and too many big kids will dominate the preschoolers and it won’t be fun for the little kids. |
DH thinks inciting all our friends over for a football/birthday party is a good idea.
Poor third child. DH and I aren’t that interested in a toddler party with strangers. She just started preschool and we don’t know her new classmates. Most of our friends all have older kids. Even my friends with “younger” kids are still a year or two older than my daughter. |
Badlands? |
