and you received an invitation to a birthday party, which venue would annoy you the least (ie which would you be willing to go to/have your child attend)
Before the flames start (why not just a quiet birthday party at home with friends and family/why not just go to a park for free?) let me address these issues:
a) Our house is under construction and therefor not safe for a group of people with small children
b) small party with family: it would be very small. We have no family here, so it would be mom, dad and kid. woo
c) hey why not outside at park/school/state park? Well last year it snowed her on her birthday. Rain and wind also is possible...refer to #a, we can't use out house as a backup.
d) cost: this city is a bit economically depressed...therefore activites are a bit cheaper than the national average, and I have been saving for 3 months for this.
Choices:
Chuck E Cheese
pros they do not restrict what you can bring in, don't have to pay extra for adults
cons Would have to have it on Tuesday; her birthday is Sunday (Chuck is waaaay to0 busy for 4 year olds on Sunday) and she has dance class on Monday so...
Childrens Museum
pros get admission to musumm, private party space, craft
cons: possible no Sunday Parties (website unclear), Smalltown parents may not want to drive all the way to Bigtown's downtown
Zoo
pros: get admission to zoo, private room with animal visit
cons: no balloons
Indoor Waterpark
pros: fun???
cons: unclear whether adults are free, kinda iffy about such young kids with water
Indoor Waterpark's arcade
pros: assume like chuck e... pizza, prizes, smaller space
cons: extra for weekend party
all are about the same price......
so if you recieved an invite to a four year old party (we are not closey closey with any of these people) which would make you go ugh which would make you go..fun!

I would say ugh to the chuckster personally, but know that would probably be the biggest kidpleaser. I'm bummed that we live so far from any bigcity museums as that would be really fun too. Do you know any of the invitees well enough to say you're thinking of having beans bday party at x y or z and see what they say? Are we invited?? ;-) Time flies! I still don't know what to do for C's. Parties are ridiculously involved around here. We may just do a small kiddie gym place....have you looked into those? The kids don't have to be enrolled into classes to have a party there and then they slots are usually always on the weekend.
