So, you live near the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania and want to find the right place to have a birthday party for your little one, or maybe you just happen to be summering there when your child's birthday rolls around. Where should you have the birthday party? It needs to be a blast; it needs to be economical; it needs to be nearby. Here are some ideas for places to enjoy a birthday party in the Poconos. Does this Spark an idea?
Great Wolf Lodge
Great Wolf Lodge is a thrilling, all-indoor water park that includes wave pools, tube rivers, slides of all shapes, sizes and speeds, and more water than you can imagine. Because it is indoors, it doesn't matter how hot it is outside or how cold and snowy those Pocono Mountains might be. The facility includes lodging, should you desire to make the birthday visit a resort experience for your family.

PocMont Fun
Another great choice for a pool birthday party is the PocMont Resort and Conference Center. A range of birthday pool packages are available. The basic option gets your guests a pool pass and use of the game room facilities. An upgrade to the PocMont Supreme package adds in pizza and soda for the kids, as well as 12 tokens for the game room. Finally, the top-of-the-line package is the PocMont Platinum, yielding all of the above plus a hosted snow-cone bar and access to the facility's rock climbing wall. You can bring your own birthday cake, but not other food. Additional party options also are available at further cost, including a magic show, face painter, clown, DJ party and ice cream sundae bar.

Pocono Go-Karts & Play Park
Treat the birthday child and friends to a day at Pocono Go-Karts & Play Park. Conveniently located in Marshalls Creek, smack dab in the middle of the Poconos, the park offers a quarter-mile track on which up to 14 racers can compete at once, in either one-seaters or two-seaters. The name of the game is eight laps in about four and a half minutes--who will reach the finish line first? Of course, this Poconos area play park is much more than just go-karts. The facility includes archery and paintball, with both activities open to all ages at reasonable prices. Birthday party groups are welcome. Load the rug rats up with cake and cola, and watch them scurry around the paintball field blasting away. General MacArthur would be proud.
