My nephews last couple of birthdays were held at a chuck e. cheese type place called Krazy City. They had it set up where the kids would play for little bit maybe an hour or so then come back eat do presents and cake then go back and play for the remainder of the hours that were previously set when the party was booked. ETA: if you've got boys, trust me the food will NOT go to waste no matter when you feed them lol|||What time is the party? Close to lunch and dinner?? For me I would have them play for a little bit, eat and do presents and cake if you have it then let them play again until they leave.|||Play a little EAT then play some more, :)|||Play first. If you have them eat first theyre going to rush with all the soda and pizza and junk. then when the go to play theyll just get sick.|||Even if its just a McD's playland, we make the kids eat first or they don't get to play. Otherwise, they waste the food.|||play unless you like wasting your money on food that they will not eat because they want to play.|||i think eat first, so then you don't have to gather a bunch of kids up after playing and struggling to get them together to eat. i think eating first would be easier!
