Being a Shanghai kid is great. There is plenty of excitement around town and options when it comes to celebrating a birthday in style. Planning a birthday can be stressful for any parent, especially when it comes to selecting a venue. After consulting our team of parents, here are some of our favourite selections.
If you have an active child older than five-years-old, this will be a great spot to enjoy a birthday celebration. There are tons of trampolines for non-stop jumping, which is wonderful for parents of active ones. Just be sure to load up on snacks to fuel the fun. The team at Jump360 can help with coordinating birthdays, so do call them in advance to make sure they have a spot for you.

A full-on play area with a great menu for adults and kids! All you need is a simple decoration for the table, order from the menu and just sit back and relax.

Similar to other kid cafe’s, Lilliput has an amazing array of toys and facilities for the young child. They can also make arrangements for the special day but you will need to contact the store directly to put in your customised request. The price is very good for the value and worth considering if it is a child under five years old, as the toys are more catered to that age group.
