[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is our first friends (non family) birthday for our 4 year old boy. At a place that charges per child, we invited 12 friends from preschool, 7 of them are bringing an older sibling. This is almost doubling our cost, is this normal? Why are so many parents asking to bring siblings? [b]If it’s at a home no big deal[/b] but outside it’s quite an extra cost and I don’t have the heart to say no. This is all new to me. [/quote]

I always think that people who say this have never been in the position of entertaining 12 four year olds in their home.  This seems like a much bigger deal than extra kids at an open play space, particularly if parents cover the entrance fee.  [/quote]

I would much rather pay $25 for a sibling at a play place than add an extra 2yo at my house.[/quote]

Me too!

A bounce house that’s safe for 6 four year olds might be dangerous with 10 kids ages 4-8.  My level of anxiety would shoot through the roof.  I would rather pay an extra $100 at the play place.  [/quote]
