[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So my son asked for a bay party at Chuck-e-cheese. I said they are closed. We were very strict covid safety wise until early Sept when we sent our 4 year old back to his full time daycare/preschool. The center has about 100 kids and no outbreaks since they reopened July 1. At pickup I see a few kids with masks that slid off the nose or mouth and the teachers not being strict about fixing the mask or telling the kid to put keep it on properly. But there's been no positive cases.

We've become more lax than the past 6 months, but still don't eat out, limit visits to the library to once a month for less than 30 min, and no playdates except three close families.

With our above tolerances in mind and the covid numbers now, would it be crazy to try to host a party with moon bounce for maybe 5-10 classmates? Parents can drop off or stay outside, food will be individually ordered or wrapped, the works for safety. We could ask that everyone, kids and adults, wear masks.

Else, we could cancel a party and just take the kid to an outdoor fall festival, maybe something like this:

Has anyone heard of people testing positive after going to these types of things? Am I just losing perspective at my kid's sad face when I told him his CEC party won't happen?

Any ideas on what to do about 5 year old bdays this fall? It's in early Nov so I need to decide in the next week. Thanks![/quote]

Op here. My two kids also have not returned to a playground yet, as DH opposes it in the early months of Covid. But if he says yes now, is that equally as bad as an enclosed moon bounce?

The risk of outdoor transmission is basically 0, and it’s not transmitted on surfaces [/quote]
