Hot July birthday idears

Ok y'all I've been racking my brain and can't figure out what to do for Coopers bday! I want to do it outside with a few animals for a "petting zoo" and a bouncy house (uncle owns one) but it is so so hot here in July. My fil has a really nice building we could do an indoor birthday in but it's full of extremely expensive antiques so if we did it there we wouldn't be able to have any of Coopers class come or anything like that. I'm a Pinterest party kind of mom so the thought of a "mcdonalds party" as my husband suggested just isn't going up cut it!!
So all you mommys that are in hot areas what are you doing for bday???

    Do you have any shade in your yard? It gets really hot in July here too but I also want to do something similar as to what you're thinking of. We already have all the animals here :) and I was going to set up a couple kiddie pools for the few kids that will be here.

    We did a water party last year. I put up a few beach tents around the yard, but maybe you could rent a big tent. There's also those fans that blow mist that you could rent but I'm not sure what that would cost.

    ETA: those misting fans are on amazon too. Just search outdoor misting fan...a quick glance showed one for $70.

  • Could you set up some water stuff too for the kids to enjoy? And maybe get a tent so an area is shaded? We are doing a small just family party at our new house so it'll be hot but everyone will actually fit inside.

  • I think I may do buccaneer bay since it's close to both us and her cousins. That should be fun!

  • It's always super hot and humid here in July. We are doing an indoor party at Monkey Joe's. I don't want our elderly relatives stuck out in the heat. The weather is also unpredictable so I don't want to worry about rain. I won't get to do a ton of decorations, but I'm okay with that. Avery wants a Bubble Guppies theme. I'll find some centerpieces to make and probably a banner and call it a day.

  • We are doing a Frozen theme, outside in our backyard, with the kiddie pool, water guns/balloons, snow cones, etc.... we even joked that we might turn the AC up really high just to get the frozen feel, and tell ppl to bring sweaters.
