 Topic: Indoor B’day Party Venues?!
Posted: 18 January 2010 at 11:42pm |
Hey everyone 
Has anyone got any ideas for where I could hold DS's 1st birthday if the weather doesn't cooperate with me for the BBQ lunch I want to have!!?? I'm struggling with venues because my house is too small and most of his little friends are younger babies and it will be mostly adults... and vodka  Hehe j/k...

Where abouts out west are you. The community hall up the road from me hires out for $80. Depends what you've got planned and how many people I guess.
Or do you or someone close by to you have a garage that you could clear out for the day?

try some of your local playgroups. We have used one near us (Wellington, sorry so not much help) but we hired the venue and all the facilities that it came with for the Saturday morning. It cots $35 and all we had to do was make sure we tidied up at the end. They had heaps of big toys, an outside play area and a kitchen. Not a bad deal.
ETA: just re-read your post and saw the last bit - so maybe my idea would be better for next year

We hired our local playcentre and it was $20 for members and $30 for non members and we had access to the fridge, tea and coffee, oven and all the play stuff including paints etc.

Yeah our playcentre can be hired out so ring your local one and ask how much. Be aware that they all have different terms, for instance our hirage doesn't include consumables (paint, playdough, craft stuff) but you still have all the trains, dolls, playground, sandpit etc

I was going to suggest the Oratia Community hall as well. And if it is nice there is a playground for kids.

Do you have a biggish backyard? Because you could always put up a marquee
