Birthdays come every year, but they don’t have to be the same every year. There are many options in Akron to make this year unforgettable for your child, no matter what they like. These must-try places will make take your child’s birthday to the next level.

Get Wild at the Zoo

Kids love animals, adults love animals, so what’s not to love about a kids party at the Akron Zoo? They’re a non-profit zoo housing more than 700 animals. They’ve even got party packages for up to 15 kids under 12 which includes a team of servers, food and drink, and party favours. That means less hard work for you and more time celebrating your child’s day together.

Indulge Their Curiosity at Akron Fossils and Science Centre

With a mission to make scientific learning fun, this will be a kids party that is as exciting as it is educational. Let the kids get hands on with a kids party package that includes admission, a choice of four different activities, and prize bags. They’ve even got four themes for you to choose from so you can have a party for your budding archeologist, astronomer, zoologist or scientist.

Unleash their Energy at Laser Quest

They say laser tag is for kids, but truth be told teens will enjoy it just as much. This is a great option for kids with a lot of energy to burn. They offer a party package that includes a private room (for when the kids, or you, need a little rest from all the fun), a goodie bag option, and help with your party invitations. This is a great party option for larger groups, as they can accommodate over 32 people per game.

Feed Their Inner Engineer at Bricks 4 Kidz

If you’re planning a party for a smaller group of up to 10 children this is the place for you. Lego has never gone out of style, and your kids can work their brains without even knowing it with all the fun they’re having designing and building machines, pyramids, catapults, derby cars and more. You can choose a party package based on length of play which, depending on your choice, includes a free shirt for the birthday kid, custom Lego goodies for all the kids, and BYO or provided meal time.

Get Bouncy at Pump It Up

It’s no secret that all the best kids parties have inflatable bouncing castles. So how about a whole, giant, inflatable playground? Yes, this is technically just outside Akron, but it’s so worth the slightly longer drive. Party packages include not only a private party room, but your own bounce house for your party. They’ll help you customize food, drink, and goodie bag options to make it the perfect event for your kid, plus there’s an actual, inflatable birthday throne. Yes, a throne. This one is a no-brainer.

Make the next birthday party unforgettable for your child and their friends, plus take away the hassle of planning and cleaning up for yourself!
