5 Reasons Kids Get Excited About a Bubbles & Goo Birthday

Ask an adult what makes a great birthday party and they might talk about the venue, decorations, food or how smoothly everything went.

Ask a child? They'll probably tell you whether it was FUN. Did they get to do something cool? Were their friends there? Did they laugh? Did they get to touch something they normally aren't allowed to touch at home? Did something happen that they couldn't wait to tell someone about afterward? That’s the kind of birthday we want kids to experience at Bubbles & Goo.

1. They Aren't Coming to Sit,. They're Coming to Play

There’s nothing worse than taking an excited child somewhere and repeatedly saying, “Hold on. We haven’t started yet.” At Bubbles & Goo, the experience is the activity.

Kids get hands-on with slime and bubbles, exploring, touching, stretching, squishing and discovering. For the child who has a hard time sitting still through structured activities, that freedom can be a very good thing.

2. Slime Is Even Better With Your Best Friends

Playing with slime is fun. Playing with slime while your best friend is sitting next to you trying to make an even longer stretch? That's a birthday memory. Kids can compare textures, squish, stretch and laugh together while experiencing the kind of messy play that parents don't necessarily want happening around the kitchen table. They get the fun. You get to leave the mess with us.

3. Bubbles Create Those “LOOK AT ME!” Moments

You know the voice. “Mom! MOM! LOOK!” “Grandma! Come here!”

Those are the moments we love. Our bubble experiences give kids another way to move, experiment and explore and they tend to create some pretty great opportunities to pull out your phone. Because sometimes the best birthday pictures aren't posed in front of decorations. They're the ones where your child is completely caught up in having fun.

4. They Get Choices

Children love getting to say, “I picked this.” Depending on your birthday package, the Slime Charm Bar gives guests the opportunity to personalize their slime with charms they choose themselves. One child might carefully coordinate everything.

Another might decide that seventeen completely unrelated charms are obviously perfect together. We support both artistic directions. The important part is that it feels like theirs.

5. Their Favorite People Are Part of the Experience

At the end of the day, slime isn't what makes a birthday special. People do.

It's their best friend laughing beside them. It's Grandma taking pictures. It's everyone gathering around the cake. It's hearing a room full of people sing their name.

Bubbles & Goo simply gives all of those people a fun place to make the memory together.

Bring their favorite people. We'll give them somewhere fun to make the memories.
