Where to celebrate kids birthday party?

The first thing to ask should always be “where”. Once you decide where you would like to organize your child’s birthday party, you can continue planning everything else. We can’t really say it’s smooth sailing from there on, but choosing a location does take a big chunk of the pressure off.

  • Home birthday - For many people, the classic nineties option remains the best. Celebrating your child’s birthday in the comfort of your home is never a bad idea, especially for younger children. Your precious one will feel safe and relaxed, and you are sure to save a bit of money. The only downside is that all the organizational challenges are up to you.

  • Outdoor birthday - Another great idea, especially during the hot, summer months, or in states that have year-round warm climate. Parks, beaches, amusement parks… You can truly go wild organizing an outdoor party. However, the organization is still your task.

  • Professional venues - The final option is allowing somebody else organize the party, the activities, the food, and the drinks for you. There are many great venues that host birthday party for kids of all ages, and it is easy to choose one that suits you and your child. This way, you leave all the nerve-racking difficulties to the pros, while you relax and enjoy the party.

How to have a healthy kids birthday party?

Let’s be honest - munching on a carrot is nobody’s idea of a party. A party should be a party. It should have an interesting variety of food and drinks, especially if it’s a party for children. However, for many people, having a healthy party means having a party with boring, bland food and water.

It is not so, or, at least, it doesn’t have to be. You can have a bomb of a children party with healthy food and drinks. Who says healthy food has to be dull? The trick is to swindle the children into thinking they are eating all their favorite snacks, while actually serving them healthy meals. How? Well, here’s some advice on how to make your healthy snacks appealing to kids, and ideas on what food to serve.

How do I make the kids want to eat healthy food?

It’s actually easier than you might think, if you follow these simple tips.

  • KIS - Yes, keep it simple. Use ingredients familiar to most, as kids will eat what they know. So, bananas and tomatoes yes, cauliflowers and aubergines no.

  • Involve them - We all know how children like to be involved in various activities, so why not cooking too? Nobody’s saying anything about having children prepare all the meals, but a slice here and there, or an occasional taste can make them really interested in the food you’re going to be offering.

  • Hide the chips - Put the unhealthy snacks we all love far from sight. If children notice you’ve got sodas or Doritos, they’re probably going to pounce. Offer healthy food, but keep the unhealthy choices hidden away.

What healthy snacks can I make?

As for making healthy snacks, it does demand a bit of effort if you plan on doing it on your own, instead of letting professional party organizers do it for you, but trust us, the end result is well worth the effort. Here are some of our top healthy-snack ideas that both toddlers and kids already going to one of the San Diego Unified School District schools will love..

  • Healthy lollies - Who says popsicles and lollipops have to be industrial and unhealthy? If you invest a little time into creating your own unique flavor combinations, you can be sure kids are going to go crazy over them. Use fresh fruit and juices, and see what flavors work best.

  • Smoothies - Who says kids only love sodas? Smoothies may get a couple of frowny looks at first, but once the kids try them, they’ll keep asking for more. And, if you give them cool names, such as Shrek for the kiwi-based one, or Simba for the orange-and-tangerine mix, the fun will just keep on rising.

  • Healthy sodas - If kids really really really want sodas, serve them healthy ones. Just take some fresh juices, mix them up with sparkling water, add an ice cube or two, place a colorful straw, and serve cold. Nobody will notice the difference!

  • Chocolaty fruit - Chocolate, especially pure, dark chocolate, is healthy, no matter what some might say. And, when you couple chocolate with fresh fruit, you’ve got a sure winner. Cover various fruit in chocolate, sprinkle some nuts on top, and watch this healthy sweet disappear.

What are the best kid birthday party places near me?

This one really is tricky. It all depends on where exactly you live, and what interesting locations there are near you. As we’ve said, if you leave close to the beach, feel free to try and organize your kid’s birthday party there.

If, on the other hand, you live nowhere near any of the interesting outdoor locations for the party, you might want to try and find a good party venue where professional children birthday party organizer will take care of everything for you. Here are some things to think about when trying to find the perfect party venue.

  • Proximity - The nearer to your home the better. Also, see if it is also near to the homes to all the guests you plan on inviting, as this solves the problem of transportation.

  • Equipment - Visit several venues, and see what equipment they have and if it’s necessary for what you had in mind.

  • Cleanliness - Make sure the party venue is as clean as a whistle, as nothing less than squeaky clean is good enough for your kid and his friends.

  • Activities - Ask about the activities they plan on incorporating into your child’s birthday party, and see if you like them.

  • Staff - Feel free to ask for credentials of the staff that’s going to be involved in organizing your child’s party. Only the best professionals are good enough.

  • Atmosphere - Finally, see whether you like the venue as a whole, or, better yet, take your child with you and see how he feels. Choose the venue that you truly like.
