Soft play party

[MrPickles73]

DS2 has been invited to a birthday party which will be private hire of a soft play place for his class (20 children).

TBH I am not a fan of soft play. They are either hot / cold. Its always loud. Kids running about, bedlam. I hate these parties.

Is it safe to assume with the new COVID restriction of max 6 people the party will be cancelled / restructured?

Well it certainly shouldn't be going ahead. However some people think the rules don't apply to them so who knows.

[MrPickles73]

I'm hoping it will be 'reshaped' into something that doesnt involve soft play..

[Hersetta427]

If the rules are applied it shouldn't be reshaped into anything. You can't have gatherings of more than 6 people so definitely not 20 children plus 20 parents.

[MrPickles73]

No you're quite right. Hopefully it'll be cancelled.

Actually I think at a proper venue they are allowed to offer class bubble parties. A local pottery place near us said they could continue to, although they would socially distance the children, which is different to soft play.
