Find super cute garlands, candy assortments, and cupcake toppers at the Queen Bee Stores inside Oodies Kids, 6237 SE Milwaukie Avenue.
If you don’t have time to do it at home, there are many local options for really different and fun birthday parties.
The Judy offers a party with movies, karaoke, unlimited popcorn, and video games.
Want to head out to the country. Check out Portland Party Goats located in Hillsboro, Oregon. They offer to bring four baby goats to your home, or you can schedule a time to go out to their farm to meet the goats and their other farm animals. I have personally been to the farm and also had them come to my place of business with their baby goats. It was a big hit having baby goats at work.
Cake Hoopla offers the little bakers in your life a very memorable experience. They offer cake and cupcake decorating classes, and guests get to take home what they create.
Party like an animal at Triskelee Farm. They offer a wonderful farm experience for families and their children.
Frog Pond Farm is a lively outdoor adventure location with over 80 farm animals. They have playgrounds and games, a bouncy park, and a great covered space for the kids to eat.
For your older children, there are a variety of fun activities in the Portland area. How about a girls’ day out with friends for your birthday? Whimsy and Wonder in Cedar Hills Crossing throws parties for all ages and has fun things to do like tattoos, character visits, balloon artists, and more. Kids can get their hair styled and even have it treated with temporary color. They work with you to personalize your party theme. They are located at 3205 SW Cedar Hills Blvd in the mall.
Escapely is in downtown Portland and offers a fun, riveting adventure as partygoers search for clues and solve puzzles while exploring the city. It’s similar to an escape room in a single Spyhunter box. Each box comes with clue envelopes, a lockbox with a real lock, spy glasses, a passport, a QR code, and more. The estimated playtime for this is around 1.5 to 3 hours. Each box costs $59.00.
There are so many other fun options for parties, like a swim party, a treasure hunt, and a sleepover-themed party. Whatever you decide to do this summer, make your kids’ experiences memorable and fun. Remember to take lots of pictures and make a birthday book for your child. They will treasure these books and the many memories of their birthdays!
