I just want to ask if you have attended or you were able to celebrate a birthday party in some of Jollibee food chains?
Because last November, during my nephew's second birthday, we celebrated at Jollibee Lucena. Of course, Jollibee the mascot was there. He even danced.
The thing is, the party was supposedly for kids, but we adults had a blast and even pose with Jollibee. Each time i take a look at the photos during the celebration, I can not help but smile.
Have you ever had an experience, where you are celebrating a kid's party but the adults had much more fun?

My daughter's first birthday was celebrated in one Jolibee outlet here in my area... and i can say that everybody had fun... because even the adults had some games to play prepared by the crew... and it is a good thing that most of them were game enough to join...
Enjoying a certain party is mostly dependent on the person... if he/she allows herself to be bored... then that is his/her fault...

Well I guess we Filipinos do really love parties and having fun in such thing is okay I think. Plus the fact that most of the kids are either shy and not very participative in such kind of parties. Seldom do I see in a party that kids would enjoy it like the adults do. Also, in such parties you would notice that the adults far more numerous than the kids.

Yes you are right my friend,adult are more enjoying than the kids.This kind of birthday party on a food chain was miss by adults.same thing for me when my son celebrated his birthday on Burger King,i enjoy it so much taking pictures with Mascot.Adults haven't experience this kind of party that's why they are enjoying it so much.

I agree, nowadays Children parties include games for the parents so they enjoy the activities as well. I think it's nice that adults get to be kids again even for a few hours. A couple-friend of ours had their pre-wedding party at Jollibee .. it wholesome and fun, which was what thye wanted

Yes I agree. This is almost always the case when we conduct birthday parties or baptismal celebration is some fact food chains. The thing is that adults were not able to enjoy those things during their childhood because that was not the trend before. So I just go with the flow and enjoy the party with the mascots just like the older people than me in the reception. I always notice that there are more adults than children in a party like this and they are the ones who also eats the most. Well there are couples who only have one kid and then they will bring one nanny so that's a total of four already. I have been to kiddie parties in Jollibee, McDonalds, Shakeys, Burger King and KFC. The foods there are great so I wish that some of my friends or relatives will invite me again lol! I am planning a better baptismal for my four months old son and I am thinking of making it more practical. We won't be doing it in a fast food but in a nice place that has a catering service. I haven't suggested it to my husband yet because we don't have the budget yet. Wish me luck! I wish to have a very memorable and nice party for my baby!
