Margaret’s daughter just celebrated her 5^th birthday. That calls for a party, right?!?

We did a lot of research on the many options around Reston to throw a great birthday party that we wanted to share. Here are some local party places and ideas that we discovered.

Chuck E Cheese, https://www.chuckecheese.com/kids-birthday-party

There are several regional locations of this classic birthday party venue. They offer a variety of party packages and can provide everything from fun to food to goody bags.

Does your child love to do creative things? A paint your own pottery party here might be just perfect. Here you can choose pottery, clay, canvas or mosaic work.

National Zoo, https://nationalzoo.si.edu/membership/fonz-birthday-parties

Birthday parties at the Zoo are very popular, and dates often book up several months in advance. Animals and cake, what could be better?

The Little Gym, https://www.thelittlegym.com/parties-camps#awesome-birthday-bash-anchor

The Little Gym gives your birthday kid (ages 1-12) and their friends the full run of the facility, with instructor-led games, music, and fun LEGO® Juniors or LEGO® DUPLO® building activities.
