[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Growing up, most birthday parties were house parties, with or without hired entertainment - like a traveling petting zoo that comes to you with a goat, a bunny, you can pay extra for a ponny, etc; similar reptile petting options that are cheaper; a Disney character with a face painting station; a bounce house. The families that didn't hire entertainment usually had the parents organize a few games. Pizza, cake, snacks. That's what I'm used to, so we'll probably do something similar for our kids when they're older although the neighborhood we're looking at has great rec centers that can be rented out pretty cheaply, so we might reserve that for a venue since it comes with a big play ground and outdoor space for exploration. Or, we could reserve the community room from the HOA. [/quote] I was born in 1976 and from age three on, my and my older sisters birthday parties were always at a place outside the home. I remember being around 6/7 and going to a birthday party at the rabbi's house bc his daughter and I were friends and sitting on te stepss waiting for my mom because I got bored.[/quote]
