Readers' Choice: Best Places To Take The Kids For A Party

Birthday parties, holiday parties, even what-the-heck parties... Sure, they can be exhausting to plan, but it's worth it to see the smiles on our kids' faces. Right?

Don't have the time to cook a meal or a cake for all the kids on the block? Don't have the space at home to host the party? Sometimes it's just easier to take the kids to the movies, or the park, or a restaurant. There are plenty of places to entertain the party-goers for a few hours in the Twin Cities area, including the Corte Madera Recreation Center, which is sometimes available for special occasions.

Here's our list of our favorite places around town to host a children's party. Some have the space for a large party. Some have the tasty treats we all enjoy. Some have craftier activities. If we've left one off of the list, please let us know in the comments and we'll add it.
