How to Choose Kids Party Venues

Melbourne's Western Suburbs stretch from established streets near the Maribyrnong out to open paddocks on the city's north-western edge.

For a children's party, that edge offers something the inner suburbs can't: Animal Land Children's Farm in Diggers Rest, a working farm built around hands-on time with animals.

Weighing up a farm party against the usual options:

Setting: a farm party is mostly outdoors among animals and playgrounds, whereas play centres and party rooms keep everyone under one roof.
Activities: farm guests ride a pony and a tractor, milk a cow and collect eggs, which suits curious younger children.
Length: a farm afternoon runs two and a half to three hours from 1pm, longer than most hall or play-centre bookings.
Group size: at least 10 children, with room for up to 150 guests including parents.
Budget: packages start From $27.50 per person per child, with a catered option for families who would rather not bring food.

Because the farm sits at the outer edge of the region, families travelling from across the west tend to plan the whole afternoon around it.

Toddlers and primary-school children who love animals more than games or shows.
Large family gatherings, since grandparents and siblings can join in on a single booking.
Parents who want the party hosted, with a farmer leading the group from pen to pen.
Families happy to plan around the weather, as much of the day is spent outside.

Planning across the Western Suburbs

Party days are Friday to Sunday only, so weekday birthdays need to move to the nearest weekend.
Send invitations with the farm's address on Duncans Lane, as it sits outside the built-up suburbs.
Choose between self-catering and the catered package early, since it changes what parents need to bring.
Weekend visitors can also buy burgers and egg and bacon rolls from the barbecue on site.
