Goldfish Swim School Brookfield Birthday Party Review

Goldfish Birthday Party – From a Kids Point of View

Birthday parties are about the KIDS!  It’s their special day, and it only comes once a year!  So how better to get an understanding of the Goldfish Swim School Birthday party experience than to interview the KIDS!!!!

Lake Country Family Fun was provided a birthday party in exchange for an honest review.  Stephanie, team member, represented Lake Country Family Fun and celebrated her sons’ 6th and 4th birthdays in one party (since their birthdays are a day apart in May)! 

ABOUT THE INTERVIEWEES

MOMMY’S TWO CENTS

You heard it from the boys. It was a great time for them, and they will remember it forever. And they noticed their mom was not stressed about the party, rather engaging and involved with their day.  I thank Goldfish Swim School for throwing a great party for the boys and highly recommend their venue (and staff) to throw an awesome party for your child.

I knew the party would make my life easy, but they went above and beyond. Megan was our party organizer, and she just rocked it!  She even asked for my keys and loaded all the gifts in my car. And she packed up my food and washed out my serving plates- um WOW!  The lifeguards could have sat and stared at the kids, instead when we were in the party area, they were dancing with the kids (hula with Quinton, ha!) and playing with the balloons with them.  They were so sweet and engaging (and helpful).

A lot of the parents were surprised that we had the whole place to ourselves and that really impressed them. I certainly loved that we had the place to ourselves. (No worrying about who is with our party and not and who I need to keep track of.) Many had never seen Goldfish Swim School, and they were in LOVE with the facility!Goldfish Swim School giveaway
