Feedback
-All the kids had a great time. They were all engaged and enjoyed every activity. They all enjoyed the trivia. The volcanic eruption was a big hit. They all thoroughly enjoyed the scavenger hunt and seeing the secret storage space. The obstacle course with the silly string at the end was a highlight. Everyone loved making their radioactive spiders and they actually all did a great job. Birthday boy loved feeding the turtle. The staff made the party totally stress free for me which was awesome! I 100% recommend the Welland Museum for birthday parties! Thank you so much.
-This party was amazing! It was for my boy who turned 7! We had our whole family as well as friends of his and every person at the party expressed to me how great it was! I couldn’t have asked for a better party or party hosts!!! Thank you!
Lava was awesome!! The decorations, tv screens were amazing. I am very happy with it l! Will be returning!
Lisa is amazing with kids, highly recommend her! The activities were fun and the kids loved them.
My daughter had such an amazing time at her birthday party! There was so many fun activities for the children to do. The staff were absolutely amazing with the kids. They put so much effort into making the activities fit the theme. The transitions between activities were so smooth, and the children were engaged and having fun from start to finish. They always knew what to do and what was coming next. They even got to take home some fun crafts and slime! We had a fantastic time!
I had the pleasure of celebrating my 70th birthday at the Welland Museum. Yes 70th! My children and grandchildren came from out of town for the event and they were delighted to be entertained by the Executive Director Lisa Mooney. Everyone really enjoyed the trivia questions and the fun scientific/craft activities. Lisa is wonderful with the children, I asked if she could come home with us but I guess that was asking a bit much at that price. It really takes a lot of stress out of planning especially when you have a 2 hour drive before the party. I couldn’t have asked for a better day!
The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the party was flawless. They coordinated engaging activities for all ages and their attention to detail was truly commendable. If you are looking for a venue that offers more than just a space for your next celebration, look no further. With its rich history, impeccable service, and attention to detail, it is the perfect place to create memories that will be treasured for a lifetime.
We loved our party at the Museum! The staff was great with the kids and kept them entertained with activities. The price was good and it is easy to book with them!
Lisa went above and beyond . I would recommend Welland museum birthday parties to eveyone and already have ! Best birthday party ever! So stress free and the kids and parents had a blast.
Held my son’s 7th birthday party and it was really awesome! Booking the place was so easy and Lisa was very accommodating. They prepared so many activities (atleast 2 hours of activities) for the kids to enjoy, and it was tailored to suit the theme (geography) we chose. Almost all activities are showstoppers (and educational too), but scavenger’s hunt, obstacle course and turtle feeding made kids go wild. I did not expect that the museum is that big too! The party room is large enough to allocate spaces where we set up the party table, long dining table and long activity table separately. They have lots of tables and chairs and the place was clean, cool and well-maintained. It has a parking lot right beside the building aside from the street parking, so parking won’t be an issue. I strongly feel the price is reasonable enough for what we experienced! Two thumbs up!
Thank you Lisa and Maddy for a wonderful party and the thoughtfulness that went into planning the activities for the theme I chose. Emmeline loved it (she said she wants it again next year!). From engaging the kids to doing clean up, you made the process smooth and easy for me which was much appreciated!
