Ideas for First Birthday Parties in Westchester or Rockland?
Any ideas for venues for children's first birthdays, and how much each one might cost? The kids invited will be from ages 1 - 5, and we'll have their parents there, too. About 15 adults and 10 children. TIA!
Re: Ideas for First Birthday Parties in Westchester or Rockland?
we've only done parties at home - my house, my parents' house or my in-laws' house.
my parents have a larger home than me and could accomodate my younger one's indoor first bday - we hired The Simon Show and he was great!
my inlaws have a pool so we used that for my older one's first summer bday. the pool was the entertainment.
for both first bdays, i catered 90% of the food from Munnos in Pearl River. Hired a server thru them for the the pool party one too. i add chips and dips and salad and desserts myself.
for my older one - the rest of her parties have been in our backyard - pizza and water stuff outdoors. this year, i skipped meal time and had the party from 2-4:30 and hired a soft serve ice cream truck in lieu of cake. huge hit - rose's soft serve. i also had snacks, fruit and veggie platters out the whole time.
we own one of those $300 bounce houses - it makes an appearance at nearly every party and at playdates too. a great investment for us so far.
Thanks! I do live in Clarkstown (New City). Are rooms in the community center fairly nice? How would I go about looking at them? Is there a web page with info? Also, do you know of any local entertainment that we could get to come to the center? Thanks so much!
There is a community center on Zukor Rd in new city, Street Community Center The room is an auditorium prob 150 capacity. If you go to the location you can get more info and see it. Approx $200 for 3 hours. Their number is 845-634-3039
