1. Indoor areas, such as halls and gyms
2. Homes, such as when a friend graciously hosted a small All Saints Day party for several families who were sick on the day of our local homeschool group's party)
3. Parks, such as when we enjoyed a potluck pincic and play All Saints Day Party
Hosting your party in a home can reduce the need for as much behind-the-scenes organzation and potential rental costs, but can also mean fewer people can partake in the fun and one family tyoically ends up bearing the burden of extra work. For, let's face it: even if others help with set up, facilitation, clean up, etc., those that live in the home always end up with extra pre- and post- party tasks.
Parks offer more show-and-go ease for hosting your All sints Day party, so long as you have dependable people to bring games, activites, food, etc.
Also, bear in mind that weather happens. So, set a rain/bad weather date.
Further, recognize that other park goers may wonder what you are doing or ask to join in. (Consider it an evangelization opportunity!)
