Going Bonkers-

An indoor play area. They have separate party rooms and you will get your own party host to help serve pizza, drinks and clean up after. Going Bonkers gets busy on the weekends so if you plan a party there, try to get the first slot of the day.

Flipz USA Gymnastics

Flipz is a 15,000 sq. foot state of the art gymnastics facility. Party times are usually available on the weekends and typically include private use of the gym, a personal coach to insure the children are safe and enjoy facilities. The Flipz birthday parties are one of my children's favorites and they have been taking lessons there for almost five years.

The Little Gym

In my opinion, The Little Gym offers one of the most enjoyable parties for kids as well as the adult. Why for the adult too? Well, TLG mails your invitations, decorates the party room, and organizes activities for the kids. They coordinate the whole party from cake cutting; fun time and even help the present opening go smoothly. The best party I have had for my children. Not only did they have a blast, but it was so easy on me! Bring the cake and they do the rest!

Chuck E Cheese

Bowling Alley

The AMF Town and Country Lanes on Providence has been remolded. If you haven't been there in a while, you really need to check it out. With the smoking ban, it really has become a more family friendly environment and my children really enjoyed the bowling party they attended.

Horsin O Round

Our most recent birthday party was at a horse stable located west of Jefferson City. After a quick mini lesson, the children mounted their horses. Towards the end of the hour long horse time, my daughters horse got a slap on the rump which sent them trotting around the ring. I held my breath and she squealed in delight. It was a trek down to Jefferson City, but it was a unique and exciting party that my daughter will never forget. I highly recommend this location for a birthday party!
