Dive in to a Pool Party

No matter what the forecast is like outside, it always feels like summer at NEPA’s indoor pools. You can expect a 100% chance of splashes and smiles.

Rent out the pool at a local recreation center for a day full of cannonballs and Marco Polo. Or throw a birthday bonanza at an indoor waterpark, complete with thrilling rides and slides.

Party Like a Sports Star

Fitness and fun go hand in hand at NEPA’s kid-oriented sports centers. Nothing says party quite like jumping, climbing and somersaulting over obstacles. Facing off against a team of friends is like the most epic recess ever.

Sports centers often come equipped with dedicated party spaces, providing a convenient and festive atmosphere for cake-cutting, present-opening, and celebrating.

Hit the Bowling Lanes

Bowling is a sport that can be enjoyed by kids of all ages and skill levels. Maybe it’s the silly shoes or the thrill of scoring a strike, but bowling parties are always a classic. Even the adults might be tempted to get a lane and test their skills.

And as an added bonus, most bowling alleys have snack bars on site, which means that it’s easier than ever to feed a crowd. Some bowling alleys even offer birthday party packages that simplify party planning for parents.

Skate the Night Away

Whether a child is a seasoned skater or trying it for the first time, the inclusive nature of skating ensures that everyone can participate. Trying to stay on your feet is half the fun at a skating party anyway. Let the kids lace up their skates and glide under the disco lights, or create lasting memories at the local ice rink.

Skating parties are not weather-dependent, providing a reliable and comfortable venue year-round. Many have designated party rooms where kids can eat, socialize, and take breaks from skating when needed.

Make a Masterpiece

Unleash your child’s creativity and celebrate their special day in a uniquely artistic way. Host a birthday party at one of NEPA’s art studios or DIY venues! From painting canvas to crafting ceramic pieces, these locations offer plenty of unique projects. Many places offer birthday party packages that include all the necessary supplies, a dedicated party space, and sometimes even refreshments.

Celebrate with the Silver Screen

Party like it’s a world premiere while watching a new release at one of NEPA’s theaters. Movie theaters can be a fantastic and entertaining venue for hosting kid’s birthday parties. Some locations even allow the VIP to in a private viewing box or luxury seating on their special day. Trade the cake for a bucket of buttery popcorn (or have both), sit back and enjoy.

Throw a Mind-Blowing Birthday

Think outside the box and plan a celebration that is a fun experience and encourages using a bit of brainpower. Museums, education centers, and escape rooms are perfect party ideas for curious minds. Meet amazing animals, solve mysteries, and have a bit of hands-on fun.

Give Them the Royal Treatment

Treat the kids to a spa day complete with mini manicures, pedicures, hairstyles and more. Let each kid put their unique touches into a candle-making experience. Some spots around NEPA offer activities that will add a little sparkle and style to that special day.
