The James Boyd Children's Centre at the Toronto Botanical Garden is the perfect place to celebrate your child’s birthday. Our bright and sunny children’s centre is brimming with games, books, activities and artifacts that your child will enjoy exploring with their guests.

Customizing your perfect party is as simple as choosing between these options:

1. Book the Space

• Base Package- This option includes rental of the Children's Centre for 2 hours. Excellent for parties for children 3 and under or for tight budgets, this is a room rental only. Parents are responsible for decoration, clean up and entertainment. A security deposit of $200 will be required. Entertainment may be selected from the list below (please, no outside entertainers) ($100 Members/ $125 Public)
• Room Rental + Host- Our most popular choice, this includes a 2 hour room rental and rental of all dishes and cutlery. In addition, this option includes a TBG host to decorate, greet guests and facilitate the entertainment, cake cutting and general flow of the party. The birthday party host will also take care of all the clean up including dishes and cutlery. ($200 Members/ $225 Public

• A Garden Party! During this indoors-only party, children will receive their own pot, plant seeds, and decorate the pot. A great alternative to traditional loot bags! Maximum 15 invitees for this option. ($100)
