My son will turn 3 in January (sucky month for anything fun outdoors for birthdays!)
Here is where I can't/won't do it because of price:
Children's Museum
Oodles and Googles
Here is where I won't go it because I want him to interact more with his guests rather than them doing their own thing:
Jump Zone
Pump it Up
Monkey Joes
Chuck E Cheese
Too young: Ice Skating Pavilion, Greenville Zoo (have to be 4)
Not interested: Celebration House
2nd birthday: Gymboree (awesome but I don't want to do it again)
Too cold: Jumpy thing in our driveway
I NEED SUGGESTIONS! We've only lived here a few months and I'm stumped! We do have access to our neighborhood clubhouse for free which I'd rather do than have it at our home.
Re: Greenville Kids birthday party places suggestions
That's a pretty tall order there.
I see you didn't mention gatti town, but that probably falls in the chuck e cheese category.
What about admission to the jungle gym part of frankie's fun park? 3 may be to young... something to look into though.
Build-a-bear?
Party at the little gym? http://www.thelittlegym.com/greenvillesc/Pages/default.aspx
I'll 2nd the Build A Bear idea. I worked in the Charlotte/Concord NC store for 2 years-as a sales rep and as the mascot (i know-imagine that-lol). I'm also helping my neighbor host her 2 (turning 3) year old daughter's birthday party there next month.
The kids get to interact with each other and at the same time get to help actually BUILD their bear-I think age 3-8 or 9 is the PERFECT age for that!!
What about Kinder Music (or how ever they spell it)? They have one on Woodruff Rd. I've never been to a birthday party there but from what I've heard they are great for interaction and the kids seem to love it.
I was a little disapointed in the prices at the Children's Museum, esp. for birthday parties, glad to see I'm not the only one.
Our daycare had a great balloon guy at their open house, the kids were amazed by him, if you're interested in that I can get his name.
ETA: This is the website for Kindermusik, they come to you, according to the site. http://www.pianocentralstudios.com/birthdays.html HTH.
