Pizza party facts for kids
A pizza party is a fun get-together where friends and family share delicious pizza! It's a popular way to celebrate birthdays, hang out, or just enjoy a meal together.
A pizza that's about 10 to 14 inches wide usually feeds two people. Pizzas can have many different toppings. Sometimes, at a pizza party, guests can make their own custom pizzas. They choose from a selection of ingredients the host provides.
If the host doesn't know what everyone likes, they often include plain cheese or vegetable pizzas. This makes sure there's something for people who don't eat meat or other toppings.
