3 Tips for an Easy Birthday Party

Posted on Dec 30, 2015

At Monkey Joe's Dulles, we are the party experts with plenty of experience hosting events of all sizes. We know that throwing the perfect birthday party is something many parents worry about, so we decided to share some tips with you to make this annual tradition a little easier- and a lot more fun! 

Keep it simple

Step one in throwing a great kid's birthday party: Stop worrying so much! In today's age of Pinterest, Facebook, and Instagram, it's easy to compare your life to everyone else and end up feeling inadequate. But you know what's so much more important than the perfect Instagram post of an over-the-top artisanal cake in front of hand-crafted mason jar centerpieces and a custom bunting background? Whether or not your kid likes it! And don't worry, your kid will LOVE a simple cake and play time with their friends- no cake-decorating class or fancy decorations needed. (Although there's nothing wrong with that either, if you like to channel your inner Martha Stewart.) When you book a birthday party at Monkey Joe's, you don't even have to worry about decorations because our private party rooms are decked out in festive fun with a jungle theme.

Have a great activity

You don't need to pack your child's party full of one activity after another, but it does help to have a game or activity as the focal point of the event. At Monkey Joe's, your child and their friends can run amok having more fun than a barrel of monkeys on our inflatable jumps, slides, and obstacles. We also have arcade games and a prize counter. 

Delegate

Ask any CEO how they do it all, and they'll tell you: They don't! Follow their lead by delegating the work so you can enjoy your kid's special day. When you book a kid's birthday party at Monkey Joe's Dulles, we take care of the set up and clean up so you can enjoy the party. We also provide a party host, tableware, and drinks to make it super simple for you. 

Book your child's birthday party online today, and give them a birthday to remember!
