Tips for a successful children’s birthday party Highland Springs, Virginia!

Tips for a successful children’s party!

    1.     Plan ahead.  The children’s party entertainment industry  has peak seasons in the spring and in the fall.  Call upon your entertainer 4-6 weeks prior to your event date.

    2.    Schedule your entertainer to start at least 30 minutes after the set time on your invites.  This helps to ensure that all of your guests have arrived and will not miss the show.  In addition, consider putting “Entertainer starts at (time)” on your invites, letting your guests know that their prompt arrival is appreciated. The entertainer may need extra time to set up and get prepared. It will be easier and quicker for them to do so with no guests in the room.

    3.    In the summer months, consider having your party in the morning or afternoon when the sun is not high. For example you may want to have a party from 11am to 1pm with your entertainer from 11:30am to 12:30pm, OR a 10am to Noon party and your entertainer in at 10:30am to 11:30 am.   Great afternoon times for a party are after 3pm. It will be cooler for both the guests and the entertainment. This is also important for any animals that may be in the petting zoo.

    4.    Airbrush Gypsy Entertainment designs our entertainment for parties with 20 or less children.  Parties are designed to include temporary airbrush tattoos, face painting or art projects including airbrush t-shirts, tie dye t-shirts, balloon twisting, plaster crafting (kind of like ceramics but easier), and concrete stepping stones which are a seasonal activity.  We strive to give you the most for your money in an hour and we are known for our high quality service.  If you will have more than 20 children at your party, booking additional time to ensure that your entertainer can finish on time is recommended.

    5.    Bounce houses can be a great complement to having any entertainer.  Inflatables can also hurt the quality of your show as any entertainer will always compete with the bounce house unless you have specifically designed your event for many people and with many things going on, such as in a carnival setting.    For a small home party consider deflating your bounce house during the short time of your entertainers visit, or helping your entertainer round up the children so they may start their routine.

    6.    It is always easier for the children to get in a line from youngest to oldest while waiting for their turn to at each activity your entertainer is providing for them as the little ones have a harder time waiting in line.

    7.    It is always a good rule of thumb to keep an eye on the weather forecast as your gets closer.  In the days before the party as you get a better idea of the weather discuss with your entertainer the options should you have an outside party and there is a need to move the party indoors or reschedule.
    8.    If you choose to have a mascot character look-a-like entertainer visit, be sure to follow them back out to help them down steps, steep inclines and out of the site of the children who may be trying to follow  etc.   Mascots are very hot to wear so your entertainer will be anxious to remove the cute furry costume upon returning to their car but wouldn’t want to ruin the surprise if any little ones follow them out.

    9.    If planning on having your childs party at their daycare or school, be sure to discuss options with the childcare director. Ask about appropriate times to have an entertainer visit.  It is important not to interfere with nap times and lunch, etc.

    10.     HAVE FUN!   Kids parties aren’t just for kids.   Encourage adults and family members to dance, laugh and have fun too!

Daughter and Daddy Dance Presented by Fluvanna Virginia Parks and Rec

Airbrush Gypsy has the honor to entertain a very special occassion... A Valentine Dance!

We are so excited because this is not your normal romantic dance for couples. This dance is meant to develope precious memories between a father and daughter.

As a Daddy's girl there is nothing more important than getting to spend time with Dad. Just the two of you. To be the center of Daddy's attention for the entire evening is a priceless treasured memory.

As a father you look for any chance you can find to spend quaility time with your little girl that all too soon will not be a little girl any more. To have a night together with no TV, video games or phone is unthinkable, after all the world might come to an end without modern gadgets that teens can't live without.

At a family fun event like the Valentine Dance both father and daughter get a healthy dose of laughter and special memories. They get a chance to spend time with each other. Who knows they might even learn something new about each other!

One of the popular activities Airbrush Gypsy sees many guests do is to pick out an airbrush tattoo for each others. No mater if it's girls picking tats for the boys or boys are the ones doing the picking they seem to pick the silliest tat they can find. It makes for a great laugh and is often not forgotten. Thank heaven the tattoos are temporary!

Another popular game that friends love to do is get matching airbrush tattoos. A sweet bonding moment has been created reinforcing a stronger relationship than the one they walked into the dance with.

Airbrush Gypsy looks forward to building fun family memories with everyone attending the Fluvanna Daughter and Daddy Dance on February 11th from 6-9 pm. Be sure to sign up today!
