Birthday Train

July 13, 2009

Unfortunately for me and my son, his birthday is in the wettest part of the year. It may be sunny or it may be really cold and rainy. It is too bad because the West Coast Railway Association now has reasonably priced birthday parties.

The Railway park in Squamish has lots of trains, a train play structure and a really cool miniature railway that runs around the park. At $12.50 per kid and including free admission to the park, free mini-rail ride (weather permitting),hot dog, juice & chips for each child and an age-appropriate gift for the birthday child,it is actually one of the better bangs for your buck. You can also add a theme (pirate, princess or you guessed it train) for and additional fee and add an hour, face painting and some activities.

If you have a train loving child this may make your search for a birthday party venue a little easier. I will admit though that I can't wait till my son is old enough to have a bowling party.
