Hi ladies!  What special things have you done to celebrate your children’s birthdays while sheltering-in-place?Hi ladies! What special things have you done to celebrate your children’s birthdays while sheltering-in-place? Do you know of any local businesses that are offering fun things to help celebrate? My daughter is turning 8 next month, and while we’re already planning to have a car parade, I was hoping to do something else as well and would love to hear your ideas! Thanks!  

Answer 1

Some police and fire do drive by with lights and sirens, but you’d have to call the station and fire house to know for sure

@carryingon Des Plaines PD has said they won’t be doing that, unfortunately.

@robbery the fire department will though. They did it last week for a little kids birthday.

@robbery I called the fired dept for the girls and never got a call back.

@axillary73 does the party signs and some other cool bday stuff. I haven’t personally had to do anything, but I’ve seen pictures from others and they look great and fun.

It's not a business, but one thing everyone in my household looks forward to on their birthday, is birthday pancakes. Big stack, whip cream, sprinkles, candy, candle and sing. Even the husband looks forward to his!
