Best Places to Have a Kid Birthday Party in Los Angeles?

The terrible twos are almost over because my daughter’s 3rd birthday is coming up! I’m trying to figure out what we should do for her birthday. I don’t think she remembers her first or second birthdays, so this will probably be the first birthday she remembers. I want to make it a good one! She is obsessed with animals, but I don’t want to do a petting zoo because that seems like such a hassle. Any ideas for an LA area family?

We celebrated my daughter's birthday at Duff's Cakemix in the Tarzana area and their team helped us make a dragon cake because she was obsessed with dragons after the new How to Train your dragon movie came out. Oh my gosh she talked about that cake for weeks and her friends had the cutest time decorating little cupcakes. My husband helped me with planning it and the team at Duffs just made the whole thing such a breeze. The other parents who came to the party had an amazing time too. total success. Can't say enough amazing things about how it went!! <3

Also, I don’t know if these count as animals, but we went to a party at Wonder of Dinosaurs not too long ago! I stayed for the party and the place was very cute - dinosaurs everywhere - and the birthday party seemed very organized and like their team took care of most of it. I had no clue there was any place like it. If she likes dinosaurs, it would be a hit!

My nephew had his third birthday party done with the Happily Ever Laughter team and they did a beautiful job. My brother was so impressed with their attention to detail ans the way they were with the kids. I got lots of amazing pictures and my kids loved it too even though they're a few years older. I also know in Gardena there is a Jumper’s Jungle center. I don’t know if I’d recommend it for older kids, but I think 3 is just perfect! Looks like a jungle. Elephants, monkeys, and zebras all over the place. We had a party there and it wasn’t too expensive, either. I believe they had a few different packages. 1 Like

I heard that Art Zone in Hermosa Beach lets you hold birthday parties there. They can even customize the birthday party with a styled theme, and the kids will have tones of fun creating pieces of art while celebrating a birthday! 0 Likes

The Coop South Bay is a wonderful Birthday Party venue! It's well maintained, spacious and party planning is made easy with specific themes tailored to your chid's preference. It will definitely be a memorable party that the adults will enjoy just as much as the children. 0 Likes

We attended a birthday party at The Little Gym of Torrance not too long ago and our kiddos had a blast! They got to use the entire facility and they had an instructor lead them through different games. Best part is parents don't have to worry about set up or clean up since the staff take care of all of it! 0 Likes
