Heard Museum | McKinney
While this one isn’t entirely outside (you get two hours in a private party room), their guided outdoor nature hikes and the Dinosaurs Live! exhibit means they make the cut. Birthday parties are offered on Saturdays and Sundays only. See link for additional party package details and pricing.

Party packages for kids or teens include two hours of game play, food, a party manager, and multiple upgrade options. See link for more specifics and to book.
Adventure Landing | North Dallas
Another spot that isn’t entirely outside, but you can still get lots of fresh air with mini golf, bumper boats, and go-karts. Note that the party packages are for a maximum of eight guests (you can add on guests for an additional cost per person).
Bubble VibeZ | DFW
Keep the party outdoors with odorless, non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and biodegradable foam delivered right to your curb. Whether you choose a bubble bash, foam party, or glow foam party, the kids will have an absolute blast.
The Bubble Truck | DFW
Here’s another bubble truck birthday party option—there’s always more in DFW! Book an hour of bubbles or glow foam with kid-friendly music on the speakers and assorted fun extras. See exact package details at the link.
Local Parks
💡Birthday parties can get so pricey. If you want to keep spending down, you can always roll the dice and try to snag a spot at a local park (a first come, first served kind of deal). If you’d feel better with an official reservation in your pocket, take a look at how to book pavilions at Collin County parks near you. Note that there might be permit requirements for bounce houses and things like that. Each city has slightly different park rules, so read the fine print. Lots of info at the links below!
