Birthday party for a 7yo

My daughter is turning 7 next month, she is quite young - loves dressing up/superhero's still. We have had a few issues at school regarding this (kids thinking she is babyish). She wants her party at a superhero themed play centre, it includes a climbing wall and activities etc. I'm just concerned that it may be considered babyish and although I don't give a damn what other people think, the last thing I want is for her to be teased. She does struggle socially. So I'm after thoughts - is this to immature for a 7year olds party (considering some kids will be nearer 8?) I'm stuck between not wanting her to grow up to fast/encouraging her interests and not wanting her to be picked on.

Thanks

I can't quite picture a "superhero themed play centre, it {which} includes a climbing wall and activities etc".
What does the centre's website or other advertising say about recommended age range?

Sounds great for a 7 year old to me?! My dd is 7 and we've been to themed parties a few times this year, including superhero and princess dress up!

Let her have what she wants, the kids will all love it when they get there.

She would get on with my DD a treat! She’s 7 soon and wants ANOTHER Disney Princess dress. I love it that she’s still so innocent. I think that your party idea sounds great. Is there anyway that you can influence the invitees to the kinder children? Or put a restriction on numbers so only half a dozen go (& make the majority children who don’t say things?).

Interested in this thread?

Thanks! It's a specific party venue with themed rooms. It is aimed at older kids (she was too small to do it last year) but as she's an only and I don't have much experience with other people's kids I wasn't sure
