Tumbling – If your kids are toddler age or older, you’ve likely been to a birthday party at Gymboree, Jonah’s Treehouse, JW Tumbles, or a similar place. And I’m sure I’ve missed some good ones, so feel free to add suggestions in the comments section. Some come from experience, some are recommendations from friends, others I’ve just read about. So, I’ve compiled a list of places and ideas, both indoor and outdoor, to help with the party planning. 3) Parties out of the house sometimes have rules and limitations that aren’t so easy to heed (what, no beer at the zoo?!).Īll that said, I’m always on the lookout for good party places and ideas, and surely I’m not alone in that endeavor.

Birthday parties are a challenge for me for a few reasons: 1) I have two January babes, which means parties have to be indoors 2) We live in a typical DC rowhouse that doesn’t host 15 toddlers, plus siblings, plus parents very well (and we know this from fun-but-utterly-chaotic experience). (Is it just me, or is spring, like, birthday party season? Something good must be happening nine months prior to this time of year.) And I like to see what other parents do for their kids’ celebrations to get much-needed ideas for my own. And I’m well aware that some eyes are rolling now (ooh, she’s that mom), but I can deal.Īs we’ve surged into spring, birthday parties have been on my mind. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not crazy excessive about parties, but I do put a lot of thought into them, trying to come up with the right venue, at least a loose theme, fun activities, and a nod to the party guests’ parents (hello, beer and wine!). And like many pre-child ideas I had about the kind of parent I would be, that one went straight out the window. I vowed to keep them low-key and in control with just a few friends and limited presents.
Before I had kids, I swore I wouldn’t be that mom who obsessed about birthday parties and went over the top for the perfect celebration.
