Birthday Party Details:
.
We're excited to entertain at your party!
Below are important guidelines to ensure that everything runs smoothly.
Please read through the whole page. :o)
​
​
Washed hands & faces
.
IMPORTANT:
Due to a serious gluten allergy, an adult must ensure that each child's face and hands are cleaned thoroughly with soap and water, right before their turn.
It's really important too that no gluten comes near our workspace.
This includes any wheat / flour based foods like cake, cupcakes, pizza, hot dog buns, bread, etc.
Adult's Job within our No-line-up system​
It's best for us to set up away from the main party area.
.
It's tempting for excited kids to crowd us and touch our supplies!
We love that joy, yet our entertainers need to be able to focus on one child at a time, rather than asking other kids to back up / go back to the party, in order to remain comfortable as they work.
​
As such, an alert adult should be assigned to ensure that:
-
At the facepainting / balloon station(s), there is always one guest being facepainting / receiving a balloon, and exactly two children waiting in line.
-
This ensures we remain efficient, without any lag time in between kids, so that we can get everyone entertained in the allotted party time.
(If there are delays where we stop entertaining to find kids who are off playing in the backyard, or watching presents being opened / singing happy birthday, etc, we may not be able to get each party guest through the line, and we don't want any sad kiddos!)
-
ALL other kids shall attend the main party, rather than gathering to watch.
The assigned adult should watch for kids gathering at the workspace(s) and send them back to the party.
Facepainters and balloon twisters are not performers who entertain a crowd (like a magician), but rather are artists who focus on giving attention to each child as it's their turn in order to make their experience great.
As such, we strongly recommend that other additional activities be provided for the kids, for before and after their turn, away from our workspace, such as games, crafts, food, bouncy castles, hiring a performer, etc.

Setup & Crowd Control
​
​
Unless otherwise specified in your booking email, we kindly request that you provide us:
​
-
If outside: a large shady area, such as a 10'x10' Canopy Tent, or empty portion of covered deck, or under huge trees, etc
(make sure Tent is weighted down REALLY well because of our crazy SK winds - we see them fly up regularly!)
If inside: a 10'x10' ish area to entertain in where no other guests will be congregated, that no one will be using for eating, playing games, getting goody bags, opening presents, etc
If in an open hall: a physical barrier for crowd control, that will separate kids from our workspace until it's their turn.
Example: We prefer to set up in a corner, and have you use 2 extra tables to create a "square" for us to work in, so that only the child being facepainted is allowed in that little square during their turn, before their turn.
Artists need their space!
We will be much more cheerful if kids don't crowd us. :o)
-
​Our workspace should be far away from loud music, so that we can hear / visit with the kids!
-
Facepainters need access to water please, whether it's from a kitchen, bathroom, or a couple bottles of bottled water if outside without bathroom access. Thanks!
