face
painting
Face Painters in Toronto and the GTA are actually quite easy to come across (there are a ton of us lol), it's just a matter of finding the right fit for you and your guests.
When booking a Face Painter for your party or event, it’s important to have an idea of:
-
How many children you are expecting
-
The length of time needed to get everyone's face painted (our simple face paint designs take 5-7 minutes per child, which allows us to move through your line pretty quickly (freeing up time for other activities like balloon animals and glitter tattoos)
-
Other activities you have planned (eg. face painting doesn't mix well with pool/swimming parties)
-
Your budget!
Why book a Face Painter:
-
Kids LOVE it
-
Looks great in photos
-
Kids LOVE it... lol
Keep in mind:
-
Face Painting is time consuming (we recommend having other activities available for the children check out our blog posts here with some suggestions)
-
Children under age 4 sometimes struggle to sit still (many prefer a tattoo on the hand instead, which is a great introduction to face painting.. baby steps, right?)
-
If children are sweating, Face Paint can smudge (we recommend doing any active games or swimming BEFORE face painting begins)
Remember, with our custom packages you can mix and match Face Painting with Balloon Animals and Glitter Tattoos at no added cost

hip-hop
dance party
A great option for dancers and non-dancers alike. The choreography is basic hip hop (big, fun and not intimidating), participants will learn choreography, explore transitions, have freestyle moments and finish with a dance performance & games. If your child has song requests, we’re open to that too, just let us know in advance. We bring our own sound system, all we need is open space.

slime station
A fun and interactive slime-making activity that doubles as a take-home party favour. Kids will have a blast creating their own unique slime under the guidance of our slime expert. We can accommodate up to 5 children at a time, in three 20 minute rotations (15 children per hour) to ensure that everyone gets personalized attention.
We provide all the necessary supplies, materials, and equipment for the slime-making process. From colorful glitters to colourings and our secret slime activator, we have everything covered. Once the rotation is complete, we package up the slimes and set them to the side to go home with participants.
Important Notes:
-
We use our own 6t table and prefer to set up on a floor as opposed to carpeted area (in case of spills)
-
Recommended for children over 6 years
-
The price includes supplies for 15 children, so if there are leftovers, we can have children make more than one slime (great for the birthday kid)
-
We set the slimes aside for you to distribute at the end of the party (this avoids any mess at your venue)

faqs
Q: I don't need the full two hours, can I book only one?
A: Our minimum booking time is 2 hours - you'd be surprised how busy the kids keep us (lol). If your entertainer finishes early, they will continue "a la carte" service for children to get more balloons, tattoos, and added face paint. Alternatively, if you let us know ahead of time, they can arrive early to help set up, or assist with cake/clean up :)
Q: Do you offer discounts for non-profits and charities?
A: Yup, each year we choose 10 community/charitable organizations to work with, please reach out in advance!
Q: Do I have to tip the entertainer?
A: Please don't feel obligated to tip your entertainer, we pride ourselves on paying staff VERY fairly. With that being said, if you would like to tip your entertainer, that is completely fine
Q: What do the entertainers wear?
A: Our entertainers wear a black company t shirt with out logo in white, along with activewear bottoms. If you have a formal event, please let us know in advance so that we can wear all black business casual
Q: Can I request a preferred gender for my entertainer?
A: For sure! On our booking form, there is a space for this. Most of our staff are women and we are quite limited when it comes to male staff
Q: Do I have to pay a deposit?
A: Yes, a $100 deposit is required upon confirmation of booking. We will send you an invoice OR you can e-transfer (whatever works best for you)
