Re: Birthday Party @ Cradle of Aviation or Firefighter Museum?
I hosted at firefighter museum when my son was 3 (3 years ago).
I loved it. Kids did a craft, ate pizza (pizza isn't great), and ran around and played in the museum. It was easy, fun and the kids still talk about it.
When I hosted, the price was unbeatable. IMO, it is Nunley's for boys.

We went to one at the cradle of aviation and it was just ok. I feel like all we did was go up and down and up and down the stairs.

Just had my son's 3 yr old party at the fire fighters museum. The price is great. They do a craft which IMO was kinda cheesy then downstairs for pizza and cake. The pizza was not good. Then into the museum to run around. For the price is was good enough especially since 3 yr olds just want to run around anyway.

We had our son's party at Cradle last year and some of the kids still tell me they had fun. You have different options of types of parties so maybe that's why others think they're boring. We had a craft upstairs (a wooden plane that they got to fly multiple times). Then downstairs for cake. Then a scavenger hunt through the bottom part of the museum.

There was really nothing to it, the kids colored an airplane which they' threw off the balcony and then there was pizza and then they ran around a playroom with no other activity. You could have the same party in your house. There wasn't anything about it that made it feel like it was at the cradle of sviation.

I felt that way about the Firefighter Museum too. Half the stuff was broken. I didn't feel like there was a lot for them to do there and, because of that, I felt like the party was too long too.

Re: Birthday Party @ Cradle of Aviation or Firefighter Museum?
never been but I just looked at the price for the cradle of aviation and IMO that's a lot of money for not much for them to do. Don't know how much the firefighter one is .
But if you are looking for a reasonable price party I would suggest my gym. Had my DS 3rd birthday party and everyone seem to love it. They are I $325 for up to 25 kids.
