Which time slot is best for a 3yo birthday party?

All the kiddie places around here do not do Sat morning birthday parties because they offer classes.

Which time slot do you think is best?

A. Sat 12 noon
B. Sat 4pm
C. Sun 10:30

I like Sun at 10:30AM if I had the choice.
noon is around DS's nap and usually after nap he's not in the best mood Chat Icon

He's always the best and has the most energy in the mornings.

Re: Which time slot is best for a 3yo birthday party?

it depends how long is the party. DS naps from 12-2 and goes to bed at 7. so its 1.5-2 hours then vote for either 10:30 or 4pm.

We'd probably do sunday at 10:30 am and our second choice would be sat at noon.

Saturday at 4 is my first choice then 12.

I would never go to a party at 10:30 on a Sunday - that is our family time and church time.

My choices in this order:

Sunday 10:30
Saturday noon
Saturday 4pm

My DS is best in the morning and wasn't really napping anymore at 3, so he was usually cranky and annoying at 4pm. from what I could tell, his classmates were, too.

I would do Saturday at noon. 10:30 is too early for me to be up, ready, child ready, out the door and "on". But that's just me.

I think I am going to do Saturday at noon.

Won't the guests get hungry?

I know those parties usually have an hour of play followed by pizza and cake.

I dislike them too, at just 3 my DS was eating lunch then and down for his nap at 1---but everyone's schedule is different. Not saying I wouldn't take my child to a noon party, but chances are he wouldn't be in the best mood

Pretty much the same as this. I might attend a noon party, but it wouldn't be my choice in times b/c DS (who will be 3 at the end of the month) eats lunch at that time and then naps at 1. So that's a cranky time of day for him. My top choice would be 4 on Saturday, but 10:30 Sunday would be okay.
