Chuck E. Cheese, the bounce house places and bowling alleys are cool to host your kid’s birthday party, but if you’re into something a little more unique, how about having the party amongst a bunch of kangaroos?!

Thanks to Kangaroo Ranch, which recently opened up in Wheat Ridge, you can do exactly that…you can also do yoga, cuddle and just hang out with the kangaroos.

Kangaroo Ranch describes themselves as “a for-profit company specializing in unique, hands-on animal encounters. We are passionate about helping animals through rescue efforts and education while providing unforgettable experiences that foster a love for wildlife. Our kangaroos come exclusively from licensed zoological facilities and reputable breeders within the U.S., and we are fully licensed at the federal, state and local levels to ensure the highest standards of care and compliance.”

Experiences start at $65 per person and can be booked here.
