I was going to do some kind of "pin the x on the y" party game but then went FUCK IT and didn't. Kids can entertain themselves.
I think part of the point of having an out of the home bday party is THEY do the organizing FOR YOU. At least at a skating rink or something. Park is different, obvs. But you just have to hand over a head count and money and SHOW UP. They even clean up after. If we had the money, we'd SO do Chuck E. Cheese or something.
I think a park birthday would be easier for me because I grew up cooking out a LOT so it's easy for me to figure out a menu and transport it to said park, and then I also don't have to worry about cleaning the house up before hand. WIN. Sadly, we're in Chicago and March is cold, so we can't really do out door things for long periods of time.
