The most requested birthday party add-ons at Stars and Strikes are goodie cups, extra game cards, adult bowling lanes, and food combos for grown-ups. These small extras transform a standard package into a personalized celebration where every guest has fun.
Birthday party packages take all the stress out of planning, but even the best ones might not include everything on your list. That’s why so many families are turning to add-ons to personalize their celebration.
At Stars and Strikes, a few add-ons keep rising to the top of the request list. Here’s a look at what families are loving most right now.
1. Goodie Cups
Goodie cups are one of the few party favors that actually get used. Kids love walking away with something fun to dig through, and parents love not having to stuff 15 little bags the night before the party.
Goodie cups are also very easy to add to existing birthday party packages, and they make a big impression without a lot of extra effort.
2. Additional Game Cards
More game cards means more time in the arcade! Extra game cards keep the energy going and give kids more chances to rack up tickets, try new games, and stay entertained throughout the party.
They’re also a great way to match the experience for your group. Got a bunch of competitive cousins? More cards mean more friendly rivalry. Have a mix of ages? Extra cards give everyone the flexibility to play at their own pace.
3. Adult Lanes
Sometimes, adults don’t want to just watch! Adding lanes for the grown-ups means the whole family can have fun.
This add-on is very popular at larger family gatherings and mixed-age celebrations. Parents get to bowl, siblings join in, and everyone goes home feeling like they actually attended the party instead of just supervising it.
4. Food Combos for Adults
Kids’ menus are great… for kids. But when you’ve got parents, grandparents, and older siblings at the table, adult-friendly food options make a real difference.
Adding food combos for adults means the whole group gets to eat well without anyone having to run a food order elsewhere. Popular options families love to add include:
- Shareable appetizers
- Entree combos with sides
- Drink packages for adults
- Dessert add-ons beyond the birthday cake
Why Add-Ons Are Becoming So Popular
Birthday party packages are designed to cover the essentials, and they do that really well. But add-ons are where the magic of personalization happens. Here’s why more and more families are saying yes to the extras:
- They make the party feel like yours. Add-ons let you shape the experience around your family, your guests, and your birthday kid’s personality.
- They take care of everyone, not just the kids. The best parties are the ones where adults have just as much fun as the children.
- Small additions add up to a bigger experience. A goodie cup here, a few extra game cards there, and suddenly a standard party package feels like a much bigger party.
