Re: Entertainment for Party

I've been to a few parties at halls and I think all you need is some music. Especially for that age group that's older. Kids will do their own thing and play together. If you want to get a box of silly dress up stuff for them to dance around in that could be cute... sunglasses, hats, etc.

Other than that I personally don't think you need to hire entertainment. Make a good mix of music or get Pandora or Spotify to play music.

I love planning parties and tend to go overboard... On that note, for the 1st bday, we did- a clown who did a show and dress as a character, she also brought a cotton candy machine and did balloon creations. We hired a photobooth and used that as favors, a DJ. We also hired a caricaturist. Everyone loved her and i again used that as a favor. Hired a photographer so that i could have professional pics done.

You can fm me if you need suggestions and have pics in my album.

for my DS first birthday we used professional kids entertainment, they came for an hour and a half. I had them dress as a costumed character but other stuff the older kids enjoyed was face painting, balloon animals, dances, magic show.

We used Joe from Legendary Entertainment also. They were fantastic - we had Mickey & Minnie they danced, played games, face painting and had cotton candy. The kids had a blast!
