which do you think would be the better time for a birthday party???

[Nointhemood]

ive left it very last minute and am trying to book a soft play for my sons 6th birthday i only have a sunday to choose from . The two times are 12.30-2.30 or 3.00-5.00. I was thinking more of the later one which means an hour of play and then a hour to eat etc what dot you think??? Also any adive on having a party in a soft play? I was thinking of 10 children but just worried about keeping an eye them all especially those i dont really know! I hate arranging parties always worry no one will turn up

I would agree that 3.00 - 5.00 is the best choice. I think 10 x six year olds is a good number, you could also ask one mum to help and you usally get some one who has to stay for one reason or another.
Don't worry to much these places are designed to let children play saftey.

Thankyou for your would you send the invites out 2wks before? I have to let the venue know exact numbers a wk before.

yyy at least 2 weeks before - I go for 3 weeks, usually.

and 3 - 5 much better time, play first, eating second

I'm going to go for 3-5pm. After lunch and before tea at home

I am doing a 3rd birthday and chosen 3-5 as they will have had lunch and a quiet period, then they get 2 hours to go mad and then they go home for tea.
