Throwing a memorable kids’ party means choosing a space that sparks imagination, offers fun activities, and lets parents breathe easy—and this year’s Best of the Valley readers’ choice contest featured venues that tick all those boxes. Voters highlighted locations where kids can jump, skate, craft, and play their way into a birthday they’ll never forget. Here are the top spots bringing joy—and party magic—to the Valley.

Valley Jump Park is a bouncing paradise for high‑energy parties. With wall-to-wall trampolines, foam pits, dodgeball courts, and party rooms, it’s ideal for kids who want to jump, flip, and have a blast. Staff-organized party packages make hosting easy—pizza, cake, and curated playtime all in one place—so guests get the fun without the fuss.

iExploreMore offers hands-on learning and action-packed celebrations with activities like rock-climbing, zip-lining, axe-throwing (for older kids), and ninja courses. This indoor adventure center blends excitement with safety, making it a hit for kids who want to climb, crawl, and explore their way through a celebration that’s anything but ordinary.

North Mountain Gymnastics provides movement-based, skill-centered parties in a bright, spacious gym. Kids rotate through fun stations—tumbling mats, foam pits, balance beams—while coaches supervise activities. Parents love the structured yet playful setup, and kids leave with smiles (and maybe a newfound cartwheel).

Funky’s Skate Center brings retro vibes to birthday parties with roller-skating fun. Whether guests are skating pros or first-timers, music, lights, and rental skates create a festive atmosphere. Party packages include private rooms plus pizza and decorations, leaving hosts free to enjoy the celebrations.

You Made It! adds a creative twist with craft‑centered parties. Kids choose from pottery painting, fused glass projects, canvas art, and more—then decorate and personalize their creations as party keepsakes. It’s a sensory, artistic celebration that leaves families with both fun memories and handmade treasures.
