Children's party
in Groningen
Between October and March almost every party happens indoors. We make a programme for that which keeps going all afternoon. From €15 per child.
A party when it's dark by five
A children's party in Groningen between October and March almost always happens indoors. It's often wet and windy, and it's dark by around five. A scavenger hunt round the neighbourhood or a game in the garden is out, and with it the part where children can burn off their energy. We build that back into the indoor programme, with a search through the house and short rounds that alternate between sitting still and moving.
In the dark you can do something that doesn't work in summer, like a search with torches through a few rooms. That works well from about eight. For younger children the lights stay on and we make it exciting with a story and sound. We ask in advance which rooms can be used, so the bedrooms stay closed if you want. Other than that, we need a table and a power socket for the birthday party.

Frequently asked questions
Isn't a game with torches too scary?
For children under eight we keep the lights on. Above that age, most children find the dark the most exciting part. If there's a child who doesn't like the dark, let us know and that child gets a role with light, for example as the team's torch bearer.
Can the party be during the autumn or Christmas holidays?
A holiday is a good time for a children's party, because you can start during the day. Do book in good time, though, because the diary fills up sooner around the festive season.
Our house is too small for an indoor programme, what now?
Then we'll look for a community centre or small hall nearby that suits the number of children. Mention it in your enquiry and we'll include the space in the proposal.
What if it turns out dry on the day?
Then a short outdoor part can be added, if you want and it's still light. The indoor programme stays the basis, so you don't have to decide anything on the day itself.
