3 Ultimate Reasons To Have Your Next Kid’s Birthday Party At Chuck E Cheese

My kids LOVE Chuck E. Cheese, and that’s an understatement. I thoroughly enjoy a great birthday party, this one may have topped them all so far! However you can totally look up some of my favorite birthday parties here and here. It is always a joy to celebrate our boys, and having our oldest become 7 was no small thing. So we made sure to have this special birthday party at Chuck E Cheese!

It’s been some time since I’ve thrown Kai a party, but he’s growing up. We thought of doing a bounce house and our usual potluck, but Mike mentioned Chuck E Cheese. I was reluctant at first, but I’m telling you it was worth it. We didn’t tell the boys where the party was happening until we arrived, which was even better! Kai was extremely surprised.

Yep, your next birthday party should be at Chuck E Cheese… here’s why!

So if you’re wondering what to do for your next kids birthday party, check out why I think Chuck E Cheese should be an option!

  1. Budget Friendly – I’m sure you’re thinking I’m pulling your leg on this one, but I promise I’m not. Let me further explain, if you’re like me you do your best to price out a party. We’ve spent easily between $200-$300. Thats including decor, goodie bags, and yep food. We spent just about that much if not less for our party that included 11 kids! They all had 2 slices of pizza, 45 minutes of play time, and I provided goodie bags that cost maybe $15 total to make.
  2. Easy set up & tear down – As great as party planning and hosting is, I could do without the clean up. In fact our friends and family are so kind, they usually stay and help. However, this time we didn’t have to do much! Our table was set when we arrived and all I did was place the goodie bags by the plates! Major plus we didn’t need to clean up.
  3. It’s a TON of FUN – Our kids already love Chuck E Cheese, so to have 2 hours with friends was well worth it. The party allowed enough time for the kids to be free, win tickets, and have a blast. PLUS, Kai got to go into the Chuck E Cheese ticket blaster which made everything worth it.

There have been noteworthy changes!

There have been lots of fresh changes to Chuck E Cheese over the last few years, and it certainly is not the same. Who knew that Chuck E Cheese leads in the most birthday parties in the country? I can remember having my fifth birthday there and attending so many others. It’s definitely worth noting why they’re continuously getting better over time.

My kids and our guests had a wonderful time for sure. Look at that face and huge bag full of tickets! I would totally do a party here again. I’m so glad we were able to quickly book our party and save some money in the long run!

  • This time last year, the Lord started challenging the thought of pausing our homeschooling journey. Honestly… I wasn’t happy about it because it wasn’t part of my plan. Even the kids weren’t fully on board at first. 🥹

If I’m being honest, part of me felt like I was losing. Homeschooling isn’t easy, and after years of pouring into our kids, I wrestled with whether putting them in school meant I had somehow failed them.

But somehow through all the emotions, questions, and transitions, we made it through their first year in school.

And wow… proud is an understatement.

Each of them shattered every stereotype people love to place on homeschooled kids. They shined bright, made meaningful friendships, adapted with courage, and walked into new spaces fully themselves.

This year reminded me that what is poured into our kids at home goes with them wherever they go. Everything we’ve prayed over them, spoken over them, and believed about them showed up in real time.

Watching them succeed didn’t make me feel like I had failed. It reminded me that this season wasn’t the end of something. It was evidence that God had been faithful through all of it. ❤️

  • It’s only fitting to have an interview with the Champion 😂 - just in case you’re ready to enter into the pencil fighting ring one day 👀
  • Learned how to pencil fight from what appears to be a retired middle school pencil-fighting champion. His technique was oddly specific… like this man definitely had a reputation in 7th grade 😂✏️

  • Random Friday thoughts… because I can’t shop anyone’s like it at this point 😒
  • Someone recently asked me when I realized I had experienced agape love… and honestly, my first thought was my mom and my sister.

Life has held its share of complicated chapters, and I know what it’s like to navigate distance and hard seasons. Getting older and healing has a way of adjusting the lens. Hindsight really does show you the gifts that were there all along.

This weekend we celebrated my sister’s birthday, and looking back at this photo of us as kids, I’m reminded how precious it is to grow up and realize your big sister is truly your best friend.

Some love doesn’t need to be loud to be deep. I’m really grateful. #sistersister

Someone recently asked me when I realized I had experienced agape love… and honestly, my first thought was my mom and my sister.
