Other activities you have planned (eg. face painting doesn't mix well with pool/swimming parties)
-
Your budget!

Optional stencils are provided to guide children, ensuring that they can create a masterpiece regardless of their skill level. To boost the energy levels and keep those creative juices flowing, we also provide music throughout the party and light icebreaker activities at the beginning.

faqs
Q: I don't need the full two hours, can I book only one?
A: Our minimum booking time is 2 hours - you'd be surprised how busy the kids keep us (lol). If your entertainer finishes early, they will continue "a la carte" service for children to get more balloons, tattoos, and added face paint. Alternatively, if you let us know ahead of time, they can arrive early to help set up, or assist with cake/clean up :)

Q: Can we pause the entertainment for birthday cake?
A: Of course! We understand that cake time is an important part of any birthday celebration. However, please keep in mind that our pricing is based on the total time the entertainer is present, including any breaks or pauses.
