• Alternate Routes :: Birthdays & Private Parties •
Give your child a birthday memory that's both empowering & fun!
Side Street Projects' Alternate Routes Woodworking Bus is available for your child's birthday party or private family function! Forget about hiring a creepy clown, or renting a disagreeable pony - or for that matter, one of those nausea-inducing "bouncy houses" that are just asking for a lawsuit (by the way, we have liability insurance). For roughly the same price, you can give your child a birthday memory that's empowering, educational, and more fun than a bus full of balloon animals.

Boys and girls alike will never forget a birthday on the bus. Parents get a nice break from the day's excitement, and kids create their own party favors out of wood. The only thing we ask is that you serve the cake, candy, and sweets after our workshops. Sugar and sharp tools aren't a good mix. For safety, kids must wear close toed shoes while on the bus... no sandals, no Mary Janes, etc. Children without close-toed shoes will not be allowed on the bus, no exceptions.
