3. At the bowling alley
Bowling is always fun, so let’s all celebrate the birthday party at the bowling alley! A great opportunity to spend time with friends and also blow the candles in a different way.

6. At the zoo
We know that animals and children get along very, very well. That is why celebrating your children’s birthday in a zoo will become an unforgettable experience when surrounded by their favourite animals and nature.
In many zoos, such as Barcelona or Madrid, they have special services so that a birthday party can be carried out in it, which include a guided tour and educational activities for children to have fun while learning about the fauna.
And how could we forget about the snacks! Of course, among the services of the zoo there is a picnic to fill the stomachs of the little ones.
7. In an escape room
An escape room is a real blast! And one of the most unique ways to celebrate your children’s birthdays.
At this venue, children will not have a single boring moment, because they will not stop carrying out activities full of surprises putting their creativity, logic and imagination to the test, since the tests to escape are usually riddles, enigmas, puzzles…until you are able to get out of the room!
The rewards? Great snacks, since these types of rooms also offer menus adapted for birthdays!
8. Have a party at home
If your son or daughter’s birthday is caught in the middle of the pandemic, as has happened with COVID-19, and the country is faced with a lot of restrictions, it is best to celebrate it at home.
It can be just as good! Decorating everything, playing games as a family such as board games, karaoke, costume contests…as well as preparing the menu as a family with the child’s favourite dishes and making a homemade dessert.
A good idea to spend time with the family and create decorations with the little one, through crafts, you can even make a homemade piñata!
