Give the best gifts in Birmingham:  Best Birthday gift for boys age 8-12;  Why we love Snoozy’s in Crestline;

It’s easy to throw a fantastic birthday party in Birmingham.  Birmingham Zoo parties fascinate the younger ones and gaming parties wow the older kids.   Planning a birthday party begins with this list of Birmingham businesses that provide space and entertainment for children.

First, consider a great theme.  Animal parties… Ed’s Pet World or Exotic by Nature will bring the animals to YOU!   Summer Party… Birmingham Kona Ice truck or the Splash pad in Gadsden.  Educational… McWane Your Brain.  Active (energy burn)… iJump, Pump It Up or Skates 280.  Art… Do It Yourself Crafts.  The party themes and ideas are endless.

Based on age, the  Pump It Up in Trussville and Pelham were perfect for our 3 & 4 yr old parties, the Birmingham Zoo and McWane are consistently fun and educational parties, and for the sports enthusiast visit SpoMy budding artist loves Do It Yourself Crafts and Young Rembrandt art parties in Birmingham.  But, you can also create parties at your home with Fun Source Rentals, Painted Personalities (face painting in Birmingham), Noah’s Ark (pony rides) and basically anything you can imagine.

Remember – sometimes the simplest party is the best. The best birthday cakes in Birmingham come from Whole Foods, Ashley Macs, Edgars or Savages!
