Never occurred to me that a hotel would be ok with so many kids in one room. I might have other concerns about allowing my DD to attend, but coronavirus would not be one of them. We've kept up swimming lessons, etc.

Kids First on Certified kid rents out their pool for $250.

I wouldn't let my 10 year old sleep over with other people except if I knew them very well, especially with a pool involved and I have a good swimmer.

This.

Or why not just check with local rec centers with pools? Many of them have specific party packages where you can use their party room for cake, etc. after.

Most hotel pools are so tiny; if you even just have 6 kids you've basically taken over the entire hotel pool, which isn't really considerate of other guests.


Or someone who lives in a community with pool party rental packages.

This is discouraged now after the kid fell into the center of an Embassy Suites. They don’t want kids running around overlooking everything.

Old town Alexandria autograph has a fairly small pool. It’s nice but not huge

That’s the water, which should be fine. But I’d be thinking about all the body fluids and germs in the locker room.

I would not let my kid go to a sleepover at a hotel at the moment. Why would I risk that, for a party?


Eh

Same here.

Because of coronavirus? Or just generally? If just generally, why not? I wouldn’t have a party like this, but I wouldn’t be opposed to my kid attending one: what difference does it make?

We were invited to one of these at an Embassy Suites. Kids had a blast. Parents were exhausted.
