Parks are a top pick, with lots of space for picnics, games, and even grills. Some parks also have pavilions you can rent for more privacy. If you want something different, private gardens and arboretums are beautiful and have a nice, natural setting. Check out outdoor adventure parks with zip lining and climbing for a fun and active party. Rooftop venues and patios at restaurants are perfect for adult parties, with great views and a lively vibe. If you’re into a rustic feel, farms and ranches just outside the city are a great choice.

First, see if there's a covered area or a tent in case it rains. Outdoor heaters or fire pits are great for keeping everyone warm if it gets chilly. Check if the venue has a sound system or allows live music to set the right mood. An outdoor bar or BBQ area can make serving food and drinks easier. Nice lighting, like fairy lights or lanterns, can add a festive touch when it gets dark. To keep guests entertained, consider places with fun activities, like lawn games or a photo booth. Lastly, make sure there are clean and easy-to-reach bathrooms.

Here are a few suggestions to get you started:

• Treasure Hunt: Create a treasure map and hide small toys or treats around your yard or a local park. Kids love hunting for hidden treasures.
• Picnic Party: Pack a picnic with kid-friendly foods like sandwiches, fruit, and cupcakes. Lay out blankets in a park and enjoy games like frisbee, soccer, or tag.
• Water Games: If it’s warm, set up sprinklers, water balloons, and a small inflatable pool. Water games are always a hit with kids, and can help them cool off.
• Craft Station: Set up a table with arts and crafts supplies. Kids can make their own party hats, decorate cookies, or create fun art projects to take home.
• Outdoor Movie Night: As it gets dark, you can set up a projector and a big screen (a white sheet works too). Provide popcorn and let the kids enjoy a movie under the stars.
