Best Kids Birthday Party Venues in Melbourne


By Sam Bowden

Planning a children’s party is a great time, and finding kids birthday party venues in Melbourne that offer more than just an open space for them to run around in doesn’t have to be daunting. When it comes to kids party ideas, it can very tempting to leave them to their own devices and allow their imaginations to fill in any effort you may have decided not to make. This isn’t ineffective; children are very creative. But if you’re hoping to create birthday ideas for kids that are a little bit more special, there are plenty of Melbourne workshops that’ll have your kids walking away with more than just memories. 

When it comes to children’s birthdays, choosing the right activities and crafts for kids pumped up on sugar is a fine balance. Thankfully, ClassBento has some of Melbourne’s best kids birthday party places that you and the little ones can enjoy, regardless of your group size or budget!


345 Creative

Nestled in Mont Albert, 345 Creative has been hard at work since January 2019, turning a century-old building into one of the best arts and crafts for kids hub in all of Melbourne. With an ever-expanding range of art classes for kids, as well as a bouquet of blossoming painting workshops for adults as well, 345 Creative is not to be missed if you’re hunting down quirky kids birthday party venues in Melbourne. 

With art classes for kids as young as four years old, the versatility of their workshops allows you freedom of choice very few arts hubs offer. Whether you’re chasing easy crafts for kids that make for an imaginative birthday party such as their Unicorn Horn Class For Kids or their Wizard Staff Making class or looking to surprise your little one with a longer eight-week art journey, 345 Creative is one of the best kids birthday party places in Victoria. Parents may also get sucked into the fun, as the venue offers an even greater range of adult art classes, as well as their very popular paint and sip nights.

Not only this, but they boast an incredible cafe and seating area, so you can enjoy a coffee and a nibble while your children run riot. 

 

Jumping Creek Designs

Mordialloc may boast waterfront living and rich history of boat building, but Jumping Creek Designs deserves to be up there with the small town’s most notable features. Run by skilled pottery artist Tania Paradkar, Jumping Creek Designs is one of the best kids birthday party venues outside of inner Melbourne and offers one of ClassBento’s most popular crafts for kids! Their Clay Hand Building workshops are perfect for little ones looking to celebrate their birthdays together! Tania has plenty of experience working with children and knows how to create an inclusive and relaxing environment for kids to explore their pottery skills and get as creative as their brain lets them. 

With so many Melbourne workshops on offer, getting a little further out of town making a day of it is one of the best kids birthday ideas on offer. Not only is Jumping Creek Designs one of the best pottery studios offering easy crafts for kids, but the surrounding area is littered with parks, creeks and beaches, making it perfect for a day of pottery and picnics! Only forty minutes out of the CBD, Jumping Creek Designs offers you one of the most inclusive kids birthday party places if you’re chasing a full day’s worth of activities.
