My son is turning 2, where's a good place to have him a party?

Answer 1

HOOTERS! He'll want to breast feed!

Answer 2

Experts suggest that you plan around their temperment at this age.

If your 2-year-old is going through the clinging, make-the-world go away stage, invite a few much-beloved relatives over for a simple celebration of cake and ice cream.

If your child is more the party animal, and you're sure they will love all the attention, invite a few kids and their parents over for a party blowout complete with your two-year-old's favorite theme such as Dora the Explorer, Big Bird, Teletubbies or Blues Clues.


Structure is not as important at this age as the fact that everyone should be having a good time, and the messier the better! Keep the party short to avoid a house full of cranky toddlers, and extra help with supervision is always advisable if you have more than three or four in attendance.

Plan activities which involve the children, rather than entertain them. Often birthday party planning includes activities which are designed to entertain kids: magic shows, clowns, dressed-up superheros. While children may enjoy these shows, they may also be frightened or overwhelmed by them. They also don't allow kids to be active and engaged. Activities and games, which allow for childrens' active participation may be more satisfying. Make your own pizza, cupcake or cookie decorating, treasure hunts, scavenger hunts, "do-it-yourself" face painting with mirrors, paints and wet clothes on low tables are examples of activities in which children can really get involved.

Answer 3

I would suggest either a park setting or in your home. Two year olds are totally unpredictible-no way would I have a party at a restaurant like Chuck E Cheese, and my daughter is going to be 4. Not to mention it can be really expensive, and a 2 year old is not going to totally enjoy a party at Chuck E Cheese. Just my 2 cents.

Answer 4

Depending on where you live and how many parents will be attending, you might try a park. Lots of room to run and play and it wont mess up your house. If money isnt an issue, and you have these things available in your area, a gymnastics center will usually do a tumbling class for tots and they have a room for you to have your party. Just a couple of thoughts off the top of my head.

Answer 5

Well if the weather is nice, you can do it at a park. You can have a clown come out and also have either a pony ride or the trains that take the kids around.

Chuck E Cheese is another good choice for young kids.

Answer 6

When I was around that age, my parents took me to a gymnasium for tykes. since there was padding everywhere, I couldn't get hurt, and since it was so big, the me and the other kids could run around and have fun doing what we wanted.

If that's not what you had in mind, have a party at your house. If none of these ideas suit your capabilities, then ask the two year old what they want.

Answer 7

At two, he won't have any long term memory of the event. Neither will his friends of the same age. Any party will mostly benefit adults and cousins five and older.

Wait until he is four or five before you knock yourself out with a party.

Answer 8

I do not know where you live, here in ontario canada we have a place called small wonders it is designed for this age group they have ride on toys, pets, dress up, activity centre, and lots more. perfect place for parties

Answer 9

the park when my daughter turned to i had a little get together with some family and friends and she played on all the little baby playgrounds

Answer 10

Chuckie E. Cheese

good luck :)

Answer 11

At home. That way, if things go wrong and he gets upset for any reason, he's already in his own home, where he's comfortable and he has his own room, his own toys, etc.

Two-year-olds are unpredictable.
