Uptown Jungle Birthday Bash - Our Experience

A peek inside the birthday package at Uptown Jungle Santee

By Lindsay Rizzo, Mac Kid Santee Publisher & local mom March 11, 2020

I'm the mom who usually packs up the crock pot, moving boxes full of snacks, and shows up 2 hours early to hang streamers which are inevitably poorly taped and falling down by the time guests arrive. I'm also the mom who sends people on errands to pick up last minute pizza, cake, and back home for the candles and lighter I forgot.

Enter, Uptown Jungle

I don't know who out there is like me in my birthday party struggles, but I DO know we all just want to be present. We want to be available to watch them open gifts, visit with our adult-sized friends, and take pictures of their special day. This experience was so seamless and simple; it's just what we needed and it was perfect for the kids. 

After booking our date/2 hour time slot, I received a few emails just confirming details with my requests (party colors, pizza preferences, etc.). We started arriving 15 minutes before our time slot so we could maximize our 2 hours there. The kids were given free jump socks, and sent in to get their wiggles out upon arriving! 

After an hour or so of wiggle time, we headed into their party room, where the kids were able to decorate a free birthday T-shirt for our birthday girl; it's an awesome keepsake now! Our adorable party host served the kids the pizza and beverage of their preference while we visited with one another.

After pizza, our host provided candles (please reference paragraph one, above), and even cut the cake so Yours Truly could visit with her friends and hang with the kids. 

We headed out for some more jump time, opened gifts and by that time, it was time to head home. All children were successfully exhausted, fed and overjoyed with their experience. I do, whole-heartedly recommend working with Troy at Uptown Jungle to book your party. Call months in advance because they do book up!!


Thank you, Uptown Jungle Santee, for an awesome and MEMORABLE 6th birthday experience!!!


Love,

One Super Stoked Mom.
