We are at church Sunday mornings and we also had a 1 year old that needed her morning nap so we found that was the best time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839333 Mon, 13 Aug 2018 09:19:47 +0000 youboots 2839333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had DDs party on a Sunday morning at is was great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839310 Mon, 13 Aug 2018 07:48:08 +0000 ElbieKay 2839310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Crap I meant to choose 10:30 but accidentally selected 9am.</p> <p>I would struggle to show up at 9am on a weekend for a birthday party.</p> <p>4pm is too late and cuts into dinner time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839289 Mon, 13 Aug 2018 02:18:07 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2839289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10:30 am before nap time is awesome. On the weekend I let LO nap as long as he needs. So a party before nap time is best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839278 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 22:03:48 +0000 peaches1038 2839278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10:30 is the perfect time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839275 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 21:25:10 +0000 bhbee 2839275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree 10:30 is perfect! That said I have hosted earlier (9 or 9:30 can’t remember) at a place where it was that or naptime and it also worked well, a few people were late but it was informal anyway. We had donuts and CFA chicken minis and fruit for a brunch-y setup. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839274 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 20:22:40 +0000 Foodnerd81 2839274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Exactly what @LadyDi: said. Everyone is more pleasant in the morning and my LO can wake up in a terrible mood after nap. And 9, realistically, I'd probably be rushing and running late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839273 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 20:09:34 +0000 MACSUNSHINE 2839273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10:30 -12:30 for my 2.5 year old. Just easier to go before nap, since that time can move and sometimes wake up is tough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839272 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 20:06:02 +0000 LadyDi 2839272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted 10:30. My 3 yo is more pleasant in the morning and it’s more realistic for us to get somewhere by 10:30 as opposed to 9. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/birthday-party-time-1#post-2839271 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 19:26:08 +0000 Pollywog 2839271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What time would you choose for a 3 year old birthday party? I was hoping for lunch time on Saturday, but that was taken.</p> <p> Most of the guests are 2.5-4 years old and nap from 1-3. Most guests live within 10 minutes of the venue. Most aren't religious or have flexibility in what times they go to church.</p> <p>Regardless of time, I'd be serving a meal. </p>
