4 yr old birthday party?

We are in the midst of remodeling our kitchen and I don't know if my house will be ready for a ton of guests mid-November when Ava's birthday comes around. I was thinking maybe it would be better to do something offsite but it seems like it would be pretty expensive to go to Chuck E Cheese or Pump it Up.. any other less expensive options??

Re: 4 yr old birthday party?

  • We took Gavin (3) to Pump it Up for his birthday party in March and now we are going back in November for Coles 5th birthday.  When we asked him what we wanted to do that is what he requested.  Everyone had a blast...adults are also allowed to use the inflatables.

  • Little Gym is opening in WDM on Oct 24th. Not sure on prices but it looks kind of fun.

  • I don't know about costs, but Triad in Ankeny hosts b-day parties. It's a gymnastics gym but there are lots of other jumping, swinging, etc. activities. Cohen had a blast. There's also Playground for Kids (also in Ankeny) and Monkey Joe's in WDM. I'm guessing they're all similar in price to Pump it Up.

    FWIW, we hosted Cohen's 4th bday party at a park, hoping to save some money, but it still ended up being costly. I think it's tough pulling off a nice party on a budget. It's worth it though, right? :)

    Happy mom to two sweet, silly boys: Cohen age 4, AJ age 2.
