KIDS BIRTHDAY PARTY - DURHAM |
| |
|
Durham kids parties are getting better
and more fun all the time. There are a number of key
ingredients to making your kids birthday in Durham a great success. Most kids parties have some kind theme, often related to a TV show, cartoon character or movie star that they love, or a classic style such as pirates or princesses (sometimes it's all three in one). You may want to buy a fancy dress costume for the birthday girl or boy to make the day super special. All kids love birthday cake, and again you can apply the theme to this, and these days cakes can be filled and covered with pretty much anything! Today's Party Game Suggestion:

| KIDS BIRTHDAY PARTY - TIPS FOR SUCCESS! | ||
|
|
You want to be ready for success, so we recommend considering the following tips to get your party on the right track from even before you start!
1) Find the matches or lighter. We've seen many parties lose momentum because mum or dad can't figure out how to light the candles on the birthday cake. 2) Charge the battery in the camera. You don't want to take the first photo and see the battery light appear. You should also check that you have enough space on the memory card, or enough film. 3) Check for allergies or other food specialities. It seems that more and more children have food allergies, many involving nuts. But you also need to be sure which children have special diets based on religion or just parental preference (such as vegetarians). | |

| Quick tip for a great birthday part in Durham: The typical birthday party lasts around two hours. If you plan on 15 minutes at the beginning of the party for late arrivals and 45 minutes for birthday cake and opening presents, that leaves a full hour you must fill with other activities and entertainment | ||

| HIRING AN ENTERTAINER | ||
|
Many children's entertainers such as clowns or puppet
shows require a
deposit to reserve the date, and will often take a booking as short as as
a half hour - although you may pay a little above the standard hourly
rate. Make sure that you confirm the booking a few days before! Obviously if you need the birthday clown to do all the
activities they offer, you'll need more time.
Clowns are the best known party entertainment, but
there are other good kids birthday party ideas.
Magicians for kids parties tend to put on a show that is half magic, half comedy - and that's the kind of fun that kids want at a birthday party. Make sure you don't accidentally book a corporate entertainer who is used to performing 'seriously'.
Some party
magicians are also balloon artists, or comedians.
Other types of children's entertainer include jugglers, face painting, stilt-walking, close-up magic and clowns.
Whoever you hire, we recommend you take up a couple of
references for local entertainers in Durham. |

Make sure that you play very active games well before eating, as you don't want sick kids running around the party! Popular party themes include Ben 10, Snow White, Spider-Man, Dr Who, Barbie, and of course football, football and football! | ||
