[quote=Anonymous]Generally I would suggest you not mention anything to the parents, bring your kid toddler, pay for him separately, and hang out with him during the party. I have done this many times at the huge trampoline places. If I am driving all the way out to Springfield, I might as well let me other kids get some energy out. We never go to the party room or interact with the party at all.

But why do you feel the need to keep an eye on your 6 year old at Scramble? Are you worried he will get hurt or lost or something? Scramble is a dedicated kids party place, it will be filled with other kids and they can’t escape!  They can’t accidentally slip into a master bedroom and find guns or pills or run away from the group.  That place is always crammed full, and there’s really only one area for parents to hang out, so you won’t really be able to separate from the party. And there are a bunch of other things near that scramble. Unless your 6yo is terrified to be without you or has severe food allergies or special needs, I would give your number to the host family in case of emergency and take your toddler to the playground around the corner (Chimney something? Or cherry hill) and get a biscuit at the restaurant next to scramble before pick up. [/quote]
