Kids Birthday Parties

It’s time to start planning for my son’s 4th Birthday party. I’m always looking for a fun and easy place to have my sons party every year. Last year we had two parties for him at the Round Table Pizza with Merlin’s Magical Kingdom in Novato. An indoor playland with tubes for the kids to crawl through, this is also a great location for any type of get together on a rainy day. Another great place for this age range is the Redwood Empire Gymnastics in Petaluma. We went there for my niece’s birthday a couple years ago and all the kids had a blast. They offer a gymnastics session and they have an area for food, cake and gift opening. Two other places that offer birthday parties and were recommended by friends are the Mill Valley Community Center and the Bay Area Discovery Museum is Sausalito. The Mill Valley Community Center offers a variety of themed parties, including Tea Party, Puppet Party and Karate Party, to name a few. The Discovery Museum in Fort Baker also has a variety of themed parties, such as Under the Sea, Fairy Princess, and Dinosaur Exploration. After the party, the kids can explore the museum at their own paces. My kids love going to the Discovery Museum, so I would imagine that having a birthday party there would be a wonderful experience. 

I am currently working on a Birthday Party section for this site that will offer places to have parties, broken down into age ranges, so check back often. Do you have a favorite birthday party spot? Leave a comment and let us know.

More Biirthday Questions

Thanks so much for putting together a birthday section. We just moved here and I think I'm going to have my son's 6th birthday at home so it'll give us a better chance to meet everyone. I would love any info. anyone has about entertainment or activities you can hire to come to your home for parties too.

Thanks!

Kids Party Central, Santa Rosa

I really cannot recommend this indoor playland enough! I took my 3 year old to a party there and we had the most wonderful time, the facility is so CLEAN AND THE STAFF ARE SO HELPFUL AND FRIENDLY, the best place I have ever been to!!! There is lots for the kids, tubes, slides, rock wall, jumpie house, obstacle course, huge slide, ball pit.....I could go on and on! And for the parents, free internet access whilst relaxing in the cafe area, its wonderful!!!!! Kids Party Central offers private parties during the weekend and open for open play every day, yes I did say EVERY DAY monday - friday 9.30 - 6pm. Please help keep this facility open, we really don't want yet another GREAT facility to close down ! The only downside is the location, bit difficult to find unless you know exactly where you are driving.......here goes, Hearn Ave Exit off 101, left at traffic lights onto Corby Avenue, pass all the car dealerships on your right and the 101 will be on your left, eventually you will come to a four way stop sign, turn right on to Dutton Ave, 1st left is O'Hair Court. Oh and the cost is an affordable $6.95 FOR unlimited play, adults and under 12 months are free with a fee paying child, SEE ITS EVEN CHEAP!

Party Venues

Southern Marin is short on good kids party venues but I like:

Waypoint Pizza in Tiburon - they have a small back room, great nautical decor and friendly staff.
Round Table Pizza in Strawberry - private room, arcade games and pretty decent pizza
Belvedere Park - great for sunny days
Piper Park in Larkpur - great playground & nice BBQ area with great weather
Mega Gym in SR
Little Gym in Sausalito
San Rafael Gymnastics in SR
Angel Island - Ferry ride and a picnic - great for a pirate party or scavenger hunt
