Q. Is there an age requirement for a party at Chirp?
A. There is no age "requirement", but the suggested minimum age for a party is 3 years old. And parties aren’t just for the little ones! We can customize a great party for any age.
Q. How does a party work?
A. The party time listed for each option already includes time for food, snacks, cake, etc. Typically, Becky will lead the party craft/activity first. Afterward, she will "hand over" the party to mom or dad. Food/snacks (optional) can then be served, the kids can sing, and they can eat cake/cupcakes. Then we take a group picture! Party guests should leave Chirp within fifteen minutes of the party’s end time.
Q. Is there a minimum amount of kids per party?
A. A party will proceed no matter how many guests actually show up, each party package is up to 10 guest, with an option to add more. You should provide your anticipated final headcount with Chirp about a week before your party.
Q. How many kids can I invite?
A. Our new and larger space can now accommodate 30 children (and their parents)!
Q. Do parents have to stay at the party?
A. The party host must stay on the premises, but guest parents are welcome to drop-off and pick-up their children. However --- our younger guests (3-4) require the assistance of parents during the party, while 5-6 might require assistance.
We do have two pop-up high chairs as a courtesy to parents who have a little one with them.
Q. Does the listed party time include time for food/cake?
A. Yes! The listed time-slot accommodates your activity and time to eat! Please note that some parties may go slightly "overtime" depending on our little artists.
Q. Does Chirp provide paper goods, decorations, foods, etc.?
A. Chirp supplies banquet tablecloths, white plates and napkins for pizza. 1 juice box is also provided in the party package. Please arrive at your party with whatever decorations, paper goods, and food/beverage you want at your party. (And remember to bring candles and a lighter!) We have a small refrigerator and freezer if you need it. You may arrive up to 30 minutes before your party to set up--please try not to come any earlier. The 30 minutes is included in your party package. There is a fee of $50 for those that arrive any earlier.
Q. Does Chirp use "washable" paints?
A. We do now carry a washable paint option for our littlest party-goers! We do provide aprons for our painters.
Q. Any suggestions for where to get desserts?
A. Chirp does have an inhouse baker. If you are interested in cakes, cupcakes and cookies supplied for your party, please reach out to Becky prior to your party.
Food and beverages that are brought in by the party host, must be served by the party host as we are unable to monitor food allergies and restrictions. Party hosts must also inquire about guest allergies prior to party. If a guest does have allergies, please inform Becky as well. We will certainly assist passing out and replenishing dishes.
Q. If I cancel my party, am I able to get my booking deposit back?
A. No; the $100 booking deposit is non-refundable. When a party is booked, it blocks out 3 or more hours on Chirp’s calendar to devote time to your party. In the meantime, other potential party-goers cannot book any of that time. The small deposit only slightly offsets the loss of business when this occurs. We appreciate your understanding in this situation.
Q. Do I have to pay for no-shows to my party?
A. For most party options, you will not have to cover your no-shows. However, you do need to cover the 10-guest minimum regardless of actual attendance.
Q. How can I pay for my party's final balance?
A. You can pay with exact cash, a check, or credit card. IF you use a credit card, we do charge a 3% transaction fee to offset the fees we are charged.
Q. Can I add extra time to my party?
A. While not necessary, yes, you may add an extra 30-minutes to your party for an additional $50. You must choose this option when booking your party if you want the extra time. If you are considering the additional time, reach out to Becky to discuss. The additional time is best to add if you are booking face painting or have an additional activity planned.
Q. Does Chirp offer snow dates?
A. Yes! All winter parties have the option of a snow date at no additional cost; this would be scheduled at time of the first date's cancellation.
