What time for a birthday party?

Unfortunately Saturday is not an option. I almost always do Saturday parties so I need help choosing.

I guess it depends on the ages of the kids, but my DD is 3 and still naps so I chose the later afternoon on Sunday party.

I chose the earlier Sunday party. DD still naps, but I'd rather push it back and have my Sunday evening at home to relax.

ETA: And I don't usually get home til 5:30/6 during the week and that's with me leaving work at 4. The last thing I'd want to do is go home change and go to a kid's party. Chat Icon

How old are the kids? If a bit older, I would do Friday night. Perfect to not tie up the weekend

If you can’t do a Saturday, I prefer the later time on Sunday but I would go to any of them.

I did ours on Sunday early time slot. It worked for us because it’s still light outside so if weather is junky, people can still drive easily.

For 9-11 year olds I would do the later Sunday. They may have sports games during the day.

For that age, if you're expecting most to do drop off, I would do it on Friday night. This way, even if you get there a few minutes late after work, you just drop off your kid and then go home to have dinner and then pick up the kid and he or she goes to bed.

Definitely the earlier one. 3 is right in the middle of the day so I’m not a fan.
