[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We spent about that for whole class preschool party at a playspace, once you include food (just simple pizza etc) and favors etc.

All the ppl saying house or playground parties - I love those too but weather is a big question mark. Both my kids have winter bdays so we are basically stuck with party venues. We could host at home if kids could be outside for part of the time but seasonally it's unlikely.

I will say my DS loved his party - it was exactly what he wanted. So that made it worthwhile.[/quote]

Winter parties are harder.  For my winter child, we’ve never done a whole class party.  It’s always been under 6 friends at a venue of some kind: bowling, gymnastics, escape room, trampoline, pottery, climbing wall. I don’t think we’ve every paid more than 500 at the most.  [b]Not bc we can’t afford it, but principle[/b]. [/quote]

Principle of what? Having a different kind of smaller party is fine if it's what you and your kid prefer, but that's a weird way to put it.

Mine had gone to a lot of all-class parties and we hadn't done it in prior years bc I didn't want a confined indoor space during Covid, so this year we decided to let him have the kind of party he'd seen for his friends.[/quote]
