Party date question

everydayeveeverydayeve
in Northern California Babies

It's kind of crazy that I'm thinking about Eve's next bday party right now since her bday is in January, but I won a party at a local bounce place on FB. The coupon expires 12/31 which is actually the Saturday before her bday...but it's also New Year's Eve.

So, would you take your kid to a bday party on NYE? It would be earlier in the day, so shouldn't get in the way of party plans that night. I just wonder if I should call the owner and beg for them to extend the coupon one more week or just throw a huge mid-summer party for no good reason.

    was there any exculsions on the prize? Like you can't use it on a holiday? If not then i would go for the NYE party, and if thats a no go, then a fun no reason at all party in the middle of the summer would be lots of fun too.

    I'd first try calling and seeing if they'll extend the date by a week.  Tell the manager it's your daughter's birthday and you'd like to have her party then.  Doesn't hurt to ask!

    we are always busy before nap time every day of the week, gotta get that energy out! . it wouldn't bother me to be envited to a party in the morning of NYE.

    I would take my kid to a party on NYE day - we haven't done anything very exciting for NYE since having kiddos so it wouldn't make a difference to me. But, we don't travel around the holidays and a lot of people do. M's bday is 12/27 and we always have his party the first/second weekend in Jan because of this. I'd definitely call and see if you can extend.

    I think you'd be pretty safe on NYE as long as it's early.

    I'd probably call and see if they could extend the date. If you were inviting people that weren't local, they may not want to drive that far on NYE with the crazies out there.  But if most of the people you'd invite are local, it would probably be fine to go ahead and have it on NYE.

    We have been going to a kids NYE party at our local children's museum for the past 3 years, and the highlight is the countdown to noon (because it's new year's somewhere!) with confetti and sparkling cider.  I would totally do your daughter's birthday on NYE, especially if you can do it from either 10-12 or 11-1, and make sure you all countdown to noon.  So fun!

    Had to laugh at this because I do this every year for my seniors :) I call it our Happy "Noon" Year party and count down to noon. That would be a fun spin!

    I would go to a bday party on NYE b/c 1.) we don't really go out for NYE and 2.) if we did, we would go out in the evening so a kid's party in the day wouldn't conflict with our plans.
