Dcum never fails to amuse. What alternative reality am I living in?

That's so offensive. I would never do that. Everyone gets local pizza.

My kids would riot because they vastly prefer the Dominos to the "fancy".

+1. It’s a little precious. Just serve the pizza that comes included with your party package.

I mean, I get it. Don’t you? The pizza with arugula and balsamic drizzle is t going to be popular with the 8 yr olds

Sorry, the kids around where I live are total foodies. I forgot about regular kids who cry if one thing on their plate touches something else.

Maybe your kids. And I’m sure if they wanted a slice of that one they could have it. But most younger kids will eat plain cheese pizza, as where various other toppings and cheese types are not as widely appealing to kids. But you’re purposely pretending not to understand this- for what reason, I don’t know

This is an elementary school forum. My five year old would absolutely go for fancy pizza, as would his older sister. As would their friends. As I said, kids where I live are foodies. At the last party, the veggie tray was picked clean. Kids asked for seconds of the snap pea crisps but left extra cupcakes. I understand, but am saying I would never buy cheap crap food like Domino's for kids and higher quality food for adults. Everyone gets the higher quality foods.

Cheese pizza is totally fine. You can go fancier, especially if you yourself want to eat something more upscale, but adults staying for a trampoline party are not expecting a gourmet dining experience.

Aren't ES-age parties at a trampoline park drop-off?

Our local place is delicious, but the crust is super crispy and the cheese is “different” so picky kids don’t like it. Makes sense for the host to get dominoes for the kids and a nicer pizza (arugula and all!) for the parents. A good host imo.

My kids would eat all the arugula pizza

Individual bags of chips or pretzels might be nice, or clementines/mandarins

Don’t make parents stay. Problem solved.

Parents don't eat because they're offered a cold slice of pizza or some awful sandwiches from CostCo. I was at a party last week where they had arancini and not a single one was left.

You don't accommodate guests..? Then why even invite people?

+1 My kids would eat the Dominos cheese pizza and not complain to the host, but they'd rather have the arugula!
