Birthday party randoms

[Deleted]

I know it's early but things book up fast here. I am just in consideration mode for now.
First - party on October 31st (Saturday) in the morning. (11-2) - would you be busy on Halloween day due to Halloween events? Or would you love a distraction for your kids?
Second - the one place can't guarantee nut free food. Our schools are all but free. Should I wait to see if any kids in her class are allergic ? or just say too bad so sad for that kid who may not even be her friend. They can't just skip cake or bring their own. The party is making a pizza.
None of our friends kids are allergic but this year means school friends which opens up possibilities.

A 10/31 daytime birthday wouldn't bother me. And I wouldn't worry about nut free food if you don't know if there are even kids who have allergies.

When does your city trick or treat? There are so many Halloween events you might have a low turn out.

I don't think I'd be busy on Halloween day. My township moves ToT to Thursday night if the actual holiday is on the weekend.

1 - a daytime b-day party on Halloween is fine.  i've never heard of daytime Halloween events, TBH. 

2- allergies - TRUST me, if any child you invite has allergies, the parents will either contact you to ask about food or they'll just automatically send their own.  I wouldn't plan around something that you have no idea if it's an issue or not.

1- That would be fine. It is so early that it would not impact any of my events.
2- My son has peanut/tree nut allergies I would not trust the food there anyway and bring my own for him. He is used to eating a meal before we go and me having enough provisions and his treat with me.

1. we don't do anything during the day on 10/31 so that would be fine.
2. It would maybe be nice to include a note on the invite along the lines of "Please note that the party will include making food; we can not guarantee that the facility is nut-free" would be more than enough to allow parents to make their own decision to bring their kid.
