Have you all seen this? You can now host your child's birthday party at Big Y! The first time I noticed the ad I thought it was a late April Fool's joke. However, the more I looked into the idea, the more appealing it seemed.
Big Y will let you use the conference room at one of their stores for the party site. The package includes two large cheese pizzas, a bag of Big Y chips, and a juice box for every child. They will also include a balloon bouquet (one mylar and three latex) and each child gets to decorate their own cupcake. During the party, children will be taken on a tour of the grocery store -- they will get to visit with the lobsters, see what's behind the scenes in the big refrigerators, visit the bakery and see how the cakes are decorated, visit the pizza chefs and see how the pizza is made, snag some cheese in the deli, scan groceries and more. You can also bring a small craft of your own for the kids to do, but you only have the conference room for a maximum of two hours. The Big Y party is recommended for kids ages 3-9. I can see this party venue being an especially big hit for the 4-7 age group, when they become so fascinated by how grown ups get things done.
Compared to other non-home party sites, this one is a steal. $64.99 for 10 kids. $6.49 per kid. Most kid party venues run $10-$25 per person. What a great value, especially since all the food is included and no clean up at home! While 10 is not a hard and fast number, this party venue is for smaller groups. Not an "invite the whole classroom" kind of affair. The Big Y rep I spoke to recommended 12 or less children.
If interested, you can contact the customer service desk at your local Big Y to book a date. Reservations should be made at least one week in advance. You can find out more about having your child's birthday party at Big Y here.
