Deanna Rose Farmstead is a great birthday party idea for your little kiddos!  Deanna Rose Farmstead, located in Overland Park, is a great farmstead filled with animals, playgrounds, activities, and so much more!  Party participants will enjoy all of the basic activities of the farmstead.  For $160 you will receive:
  1. Two and a half hours in a birthday party corral
  2. Farmstead T-shirt and Hat for the birthday child
  3. 20 tickets for activities around the Farmstead
  4. Admission for 40 people 

Pros: The large admission number is great for parties for younger children, as you do not have to worry about the additional family members that seem to attend with their children.  You also have a long time for the party, so you should have plenty of time to visit the farmstead, enjoy the party, and more.
Cons: The party areas are outside, and in direct sunlight so you will have to account for weather and heat.  Also, Deanna Rose Farmstead is only open April to October, so this option is not available for winter birthdays.

Pinnacle Gymnastics has a birthday party option all year round. Kids of all ages will be able to run, jump, climb, and play throughout Pinnacle's gym.  After the time in the gym, party goers will be able to enjoy the party room for cake, presents, and more!  For $225 you will receive:

Cons:  There is a limited number of participants allowed in the basic party package.  This can be difficult for some children to choose which friends are able to attend the party. You are able to add additional children for $10 per child. 

PowerPlay is a great birthday party idea for your older children.  This party truly is an all inclusive party option, including attractions, rides, pizza, cupcakes, and so much more.  You are able to choose from Go-Karts, Laser Tag, Tilt-a-Whirl, Bumper Cars, games, and more.  For $229 you will receive:

Cons: This party is expensive, and due to the add ons, can easily become over the top.  Also, PowerPlay can be a busy place and activities of the party are within the play space, which means it is open to the public.  The party parent will have to be aware all of the participants are during the open play time.
