Hi tere, my daughter who will be 7 on Christmas Day. So i tot of holding a birthday + christmas party. But I don’t know where should I hold the party and how should I organise. My ideal venue is Downtown East Charlet. Pls give me ideas…as tis is my 1st time…

hi sha76 ,
I think it depends how much you want to spent for the party and how many people you will like to invite. The essentials are usually:
- Cake
- Utensils
- Food - if it is around tea time, finger food like nuggets, chips, etc will do
Since it is Christmas perhaps can include some Christmas related food like turkey, eggnog for the adults?
The extras:
e.g. Decorations, theme, goodies bags for the kids, party games, balloon sculpting, magic show, bouncing castles etc. -
Recently held my girl’s 7th birthday at my house function room, and invited a couple of girls to do rubber paint art and they charge at an affordable price too.
Its this rubber art pictures where you have to bake it in the oven, usually available at shopping centres… It was a blast!! My girl & her classmates enjoyed it very much and did up to 20 pictures…
Anyone interested? I could recommend the rubber art person’s contact to you? -
My opinion is that chalet at downtown east tend to very small and hard to hold any activities, other than food or very basic decor. If you have entertainment, you have to have it outside (unless it’s very small party of less than 15kids) if you hold it outside,u have to share the entertainment with others or during evening time, it tends to be distracting with the crowd.
Another thing i don’t like is that they charge for guest entry. But advantage is that the pool, beach and theme park is near by so you can do those things.
Alternative places I suggest are:
Singapore flyer - only like $36per kid I think n guest get to
go 2 rotations, plus food n entertainment
bottle tree park - big place for kids to run ard
magaritas east coast - not much space but fantastic food,good for small
parties
Hort park- big space n very reasonable price
Dan ryans - american style n they can have back "room" for parties, they probably can provide free balloons. My kids jus love the train there. -
Hi !
anyone tried fidgets or polliwogs before ?
my son wants to celebrate with his classmates and i think its much easier if i just book the venue with host and playground !! (* hm, am i a lazy mum ? hahha… *)
the outdoor bouncy castle at pollwogs will be fun … but then wat if it rains ! not sure if the staff are good with kids…
a bit apprehesive abt fidgets coz the staff doesn’t look too friendly ? but maybe it will turn out well ?
appreciate any feedback on fidgets or polliwogs !! thanks… -

How's does it actually work?
Is it like a sheet which pictures that the kids get to colour?
What do the girls require and what's the pricing like?
Thanks much! -
just wondering, what are some important points i should consider when engaging a party planner for my kids’ birthday?
Do children really enjoy magic shows? and balloons? (i noticed these are the usual services provided) any other more fun/interesting stuff to suggest? -
For me, it’s reliability. I have seen some parties where obviously the kids entertainer don’t love kids and going through the motion…
Yes, kids do enjoy magic shows and balloons! In fact, they love them. (Unless your kids are like 1-2 year old, then no, magic won’t work…)
For me, I always go back to Mr Bottle because of their reliability. You can really see the passion in providing for kids in them. There’s one occasion when I know Mr Bottle has to rush to another show but because of a kid’s request for balloon when he accidentally pop it, Mr Bottle unpack his things and made a balloon… he is not getting extra money for doing this… he just doing to make sure this kid leaves the party happy.
I have seen other parties with like mascots(young kids), science show (for older kids), cooking (at bakerzin), cookie decorations, theme parties, singing parties (where the kids actually record a CD at the end of the party!)… i will post more if I remember more and see more… I am a party-goer! -

Its actually like a rubber template where the kids can squeeze the paint onto it in shopping centres.
The girls that came for the party were very helpful, they brought an oven, sufficient paint and pictures that cater to boys and girls..
The pricing is very affordable.. Paid $300 as my girl's party was quite huge.. This pricing includes paint, consumables, oven and their man power etc..
