10yr olds birthday party?

TutuBelle

Hi has anyone any ideas of fun, interesting things to do for a 10yr olds birthday party. She's Already had a party at the ice-bowl, she's done a pottery party, friends have been to cinema and at vertigo and I'm stumped trying to think of something different.

How about stay at home, they make pizza and cocktails (not real cocktails!) then do some deco patch

This place is in Bangor and I took a group for my son's 10th birthday. They all get to paint their own cup/plate or animal. All the kids that went to it really enjoyed it:

Edited to add that you can bring your own food etc and if you want they can come to your house instead of you going to them.

Its expensive but our local pool do pool parties for birthdays, they have lots of brilliant inflatables and food in a side room.. the kids love it but it is expensive as I say.

Depends where you are located. The ski slopes in Craigavon is excellent for snow tubing, and they're very cheap for food after, bring your cake though.

Go karting is fun but expensive no matter where you go

My 10 year loves these parties!

Thank you- her brother had a party at Lisburn pool - it was great fun but she wants something different. Again her brother and her brownies had a party at the ski slope snow tubing- she really enjoyed that too but wants something different. A friend is having hers at the skegways (think that's correct) around craigavon lakes which sounds great. I've suggested clip'n'climb but just wondered what other people do. Thanks for the suggestions.

We did a recording studio for my daughters 10th birthday. They get to make their own cd and everyone gets a copy to take home with a poster of them all singing. Just did pizza express afterwards which was hassle free.

For her 10th birthday, my daughter had a photoshoot party. Went to a local photographers, her and 4 friends, they each took 2 outfits, and variety of pics were taken, individual shots, group ones, ones with props and one with each of her friends in turn. Each child got a group shot pic plus one more of their choice included in the price paid.

All sounding Very Non Moneysaving........ kids parties cost a fortune...... it's a nightmare........
We always offer a good present from us or a party. one or the other.... then let them decide.......
Why not just let her bring friends round to yours and maybe get a makeup artist or the likes in for a few hours to show them how to Properly apply makeup in an appropriate manor..... walking the high-street now-a-day, some could do with the advice, believe me...

What about a sleepover plan it for a Friday night and invite friends for 7-7.30pm Kids should all have had tea by then. Some kiddie cocktails and munchies , couple of films , and tell them they can stay up all night if they want .So far done this with 3 of our girls and not once if done on Friday night has anyone stayed up past 11.30pm .Can be a bit of hassle for parents but you'll get a laugh.All our girls loved it .Think it gave them a thrill thinking they could stay up all night,can still remember our oldest telling the lollipop lady she and her friends were all going to watch a movie called Aquamarine all night.Sill:)

There is outdoor laser tag in Shanes Castle Randalstown, about 30 mins from Belfast and great for kids and adults too!
