Older children in teams on a scavenger hunt
For the last two years of primary school

When the birthday child says they're too old for a party

A children's party in Roosendaal for a ten, eleven or twelve-year-old often starts with the announcement that they're too old for that. There's something in it. A group from the last two years of primary school sees through a task meant for younger children within a minute. For this age we build a game that's more like a game show or a puzzle trail, with a time limit, a leaderboard and tasks that are genuinely difficult.

So we don't call it a children's party in front of the group either, if the birthday child would rather not hear that word. In this set-up the children decide more for themselves: which task they do first and who in the team takes on what. The host stays a bit more in the background and is mainly game master and referee. A birthday party for this age can also go out and about, with a scavenger hunt through the neighbourhood in small teams.

What this age group wants

  • Tasks that are genuinely difficult
  • A leaderboard that stays open until the end
  • Deciding for themselves how the team tackles it

What we leave out

  • Explanations that sound like they're for toddlers
  • Dressing up, if the group doesn't want to
  • A host who demonstrates everything

Frequently asked questions

My child wants a party that isn't childish, is that possible?

That's what this set-up is for. We use a game show, a quiz or a puzzle trail as the format and let the children organise more themselves. Tell us in your enquiry what the birthday child finds childish and we'll leave it out.

Can the children head off on their own?

From about age ten, a scavenger hunt through the neighbourhood in small teams is possible, with agreed boundaries and a fixed end point. We agree with you where the route goes and who keeps an eye on things along the way.

Can it also be a leaving party for the final year of primary school with the whole class?

A leaving party with the whole class is possible too, with fixed teams and a tighter schedule. Mention in your enquiry that it's for a class, because that needs a different set-up from a birthday with ten friends.

What does a children's party for this age cost?

A children's party starts at €15 per child, for older children too. What it comes to depends on the numbers, the duration and the format, and after a short conversation we put that into a fixed price.
