Childrens entertainers

[redcrx]

After weeks of chasing I have finally managed to book the venue for my sons party. But now i am faced with the fact that every entertainer i have tried is fully booked.

Can anyone recommend a childrens entertainer in East Anglia?

[redcrx]

its ok now, I've found one :)

though any recommendations for future are welcome

Why do you need a childrens entertainer red? Do kids not like playing blind mans bluff, hide and seek, statues musical chairs and pin the tail on the donkey anymore?

[redcrx]

er yes, they do. But 40-50 of them is rather a lot.
Its only for the first hour, the rest will be filled with the traditional games :)

[dothawkes31]

With all those games on the agenda you have an hour or more covered and can save the 50 quid an entertainer will charge you for blowing up a dozen animal shaped balloons and 2 duff magic tricks.

40 - 50 what? children at a kids party? that's an unusually large amount, how old is the child to know so many kids?

[redcrx]

dot, he is 5, has just started at school and doesnt know everyone. He also has cousins and friends who he would also like there.

Crikey, 40 or 50 kids? All in one area? Are you madder than a mad thing woman? Hope you've got plenty of Prozac and vodka for later, you'll need 'em!

[redcrx]

exactly, B00, hence the need for some assistance. 4get, my other sis and my parents will help too

Glad you have been able to find one. Big sighs all round!
Have you looked on your local Netmums site?
I find it really useful and booked a childrens party after reading a good review about a local childrens entertainer on there.

Bouncy castles are more fun than entertainers, plus the adults can have a go after the kids have all gone home, nudge nudge wink wink

i dont use netmums, prefer Ivillage layout but will remember it for future. thanks.

Just had a party for my grandaughter and I did the face painting, Kids love it mind you the 26 at her party was enough, and that was all her class.
