Our two sons moved in with us a year ago (yesterday) so we are still very much on a learning curve. DS1 has his 10th birthday coming up really soon and says that he wants to have a party and invite his friends. He has never had a party and because he moved school recently, has missed out on invites to other kids' parties recently as well. He doesn't really have any ideas about what he would like to do, and because we are new to all of this, we don't really know what would work well.
He is very active, but can't cope emotionally with team sports/playing games/chasing type games or very noisy/busy environments (the last trip to a soft play was disastrous). We need to avoid changing rooms at the minute, so swimming or anything similar is not an option.
So, does anyone have any suggestions for a 10 year old boy's party/event that doesn't include competitiveness, too much noise or stimulation that will still be really good fun?
We will have a small 'family' party in the house as well, but were hoping to do something separate with his friends as he doesn't really cope too well with new people coming into the house (even his friends when he has invited individuals round). Any ideas or advice will be gratefully received!
