Two for today:

1. MadeByYou: Paint your own pottery! My daughter, five of her girlfriends, and their sisters and moms and I all had a wonderful time last month hand-painting dishes and mugs, dog- and cupcake-shaped banks at MadeByYou near Kálvin tér. Parents can choose how much each child can spend, and the guests’ parents can pay for any additional items they paint, keeping expenses reasonable. MadeByYou is cozy and friendly, with free fruit tea and a colorful place for a calm, creative party.

We brought our own snacks to eat while painting and cupcakes to celebrate when we were finished. I picked up the finished pottery a few days after the party and distributed it to the moms and daughters, who were absolutely giddy! Next I’m planning to try the glass jewelry-making workshops they have…

2. Orczy Kalandpark: Outdoor adventures! Try this fantastic family-friendly ropes course in the city for an adventurous party for kids of all ages (this means you, too, moms and dads!). The friendly professionals at Orczy Kalandpark provide all safety equipment and a crash (excuse the language) course in how to climb safely before guiding kids to the course appropriate for their age level (kids from age 4 to 104 are welcome).

Picnic tables are available for your post-climb party and Orczy staff can take care of catering for you or you can bring your own cake and other goodies. You can ensure there’s an English-speaking staff member at your party when you reserve.

Orczy opens March 10th!

Enjoy, and happy birthdays to all! Stay tuned tomorrow for 2 more ideas…

P.S. No companies sponsored this post, and no animals were harmed during its preparation. Except that I almost sat on my cat. Almost."
