Dinosaur World-Plant City
Beach-boat to the Island is fun
Circus in your own back yard-if room

Sleep over with games and popcorn. This was my girls favorites. One year we bobbed for apples, made popcorn balls, glued and glittered pine cones for Christmas decorations. They loved it. We always had a different craft to work on. They prefered the sleep overs to any other Birthday party.

One of my faves that we've had was having the Croc Encounters people come and bring their animals - www.CrocEncounters.org. They were awesome, and kept all the kids (approx. 24 kids from 4-7 years old) completely engaged.

Bubble Parties

In my area, Southern California, there's a company that provides a bubble show where they put kids inside of bubbles and other cool stuff. And then they let the kids make their own bubbles and have at it! And they teach them how to make great bubbles, etc. It's not new to us anymore - we use them a bunch - but it is fun.

Try bestbubbleparties.com or google "bubble parties" in your area.

I don't know exactly where you live but last year we had my daughter's 4th birthday at the spray park in Oldsmar. We live in Lutz and it is about 25-30 minutes from us so it's not so bad. We had younger kids and older kids in the 6-7 year old range and they all had fun. We brought a pinata and outside activities including a bubble blower, face painting, sidewalk chalk and spin art. This year we had her party at Inflate World which is similar to Pump It Up. It is in Odessa off of SR 54 and a lot of fun. I have been to parties at Pump It Up and liked this place better.

Temple Terrace Rec. Center allows parties in their gymnastics room. Reasonable prices, and their staff monitors the kids :)

My sister had a Mad Hatter Tea party at her house, where the little girls got to dress up in princess costumes and have tea and little desserts and cake. Her daughter was Alice, for the theme. The made foam tiarras and necklaces. It was fun. Instead of invites, you could send out a Royal Summons
