It's hard to plan an outdoor event this late in the year, you never know if it will be raining or extremly cold. Chuk E. Cheese is actually not that bad, we had my son's 4th and 5th birthday party there. Alot of parents will stay with their children when they go to a party at that age. And they stamp your hand with the blacklight paint so that no one but who the child comes in with can leave with them, they can run around like crazy and feel safe they can't leave the building. Is having it at home an option? If you have the space and don't mind the cleanup there are some great at-home-party ideas online.
