How to choose
Painting suits younger kids (5+); building with clay or using a wheel needs older, more patient kids.
Check the minimum. If you have 6 guests, a 10-kid minimum means paying for 4 empty seats.
Ask where you eat. Some studios have party time built in; Create Art Studio has no food on site.
Plan for pickup. Fired pieces come back 1–2 weeks later, so they won't go home in loot bags.
Flat packages (4Cats) suit small groups; per-child pricing (Crock A Doodle, The Clay Room) suits larger ones.
