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 minutes per child, which allows us to move through your line up quickly and free up time for other activities like balloon animals and glitter tattoos)
- Other activities planned
- Your budget!
Why book a Face Painter:
- Kids LOVE it
- Looks great in photos
- Themed options
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 typically can't 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

Q: With just one Face Painter, how do you avoid line ups?
A: We have it covered! Upon arrival, we have the children write their name on a list, and call them to the table one at a time, so they can play while they wait, and not worry about losing their place in line. You can also book two Face Painters if you’re worried about time
