Need Birthday party advise

This is not BF related. My kids have the same birthday and want a Chuck E Cheese party this year. I am tryin to decide if I should book two parties they only require 4 kids per party do that they can each get certain things included like a turn in the ticket blaster. So my questions...

The birthday kid is allowed to bring one kid into the ticket blaster with them, would you just make the kids go together or let them both go and choose a friend. I know in the preschool DS went to and DD is in they picked two friends to sit with them at the table on their birthday, it was not an issue at school but I cringe at the thought of them choosing between my two friends' kids which are four kids and friends from school but maybe I need to let go and realize this is part of life.

And if I do two parties should I do two pinatas or just bring one home? I like the idea of them both getting celebrated but is two pinatas too much?

Oh, and we will likely invite 12 to 14 kids plus my two but not sure how many will come.

    I did a combined party for my sons. It's only $5 more to have a 2nd birthday child. Then they both get the crown, ticket blaster etc. The only downside is you have to call and book it instead of doing it online.

    Mel, DS is turning 6 and DD 4. You have someone go with you to help you get more tickets so I would not want them to do it alone but if they go together they would split the kickers in half, actually I do that either way and DS is a very sharing kid so even if he realized it he would more than willing to share.

    Thanks Christine, I will call them to ask about adding another birthday kid, that would make it a lot cheaper because I can stop worrying about other little things.

    This X 10000. I have sworn off parties there only bc I get really flustered w all those ppl around. Piata is going to be overwhelming I think.
