Norah Wason
Parents! Are you sick of having parties at your home? Are you sick of just going to you local pizza place or restaurant? Are you just too tired to this year to even think about it? Have no fear! Here are some ideas for you precious one that will give them and their friends memories to last. Plus, they will think you are the greatest!

1.) Pump it Up.
One of the trends in kids' parties is inflatable playgrounds. The kids can work off all that sugar J Check out Pumpitupparty.com.
The cost starts at $150 for a group.

2.) Tumble it Up.
Fitness based parties, where kids can tumble, dance, roll and even flip. Check out Gymboreeclasses.com for a center near you.
Membership starts at $150.

3.) Create it Up.
Bring out the budding artist in your child and his or her friends. There are places to go where you can paint pottery or wood, make jewelry, srapbooking, design pocketbooks or pajamas or even create a lampshade. You can google places that are near you. If you live in New York City, check out craftstudionyc.com or littleshopny.com.

Parties start at $540 kids(of course that is NYC prices).

4.) Glam it Up.
Many local salons offer party packages. If you have a Snip-Its near you, they offer a packages where the girls can bring in their dolls as well. Check your local salons to see what they have to offer. For information on Snip-Its, check Snipits.com.
Parties start at $220.

5.) Scoop it Up.
Many ice cream places host "Make-your-Own Sundae" Party. Now, I know you can do this at home, but ice cream parlors have many more flavors and toppings, and they will do the clean up.

Not sure of the price this one, it will depend on the place.

6.) Friend it Up.
There are two places your child and his or her friends can make their own friendsJ Build-A-Bear-Your children can make a stuffed animal and even pick out a outfit. They will even get to make a wish on their heart.

Friends 2B Made-Same concept as build-a-bear, but they can make dolls. Definitely a good one for the girls.
Prices start at $15 a kid.

I hope I have given you some goods ideas or at least started on the right path.
