Finding Entertainment for Kids Parties

Video Transcript

"So you're thinking about hiring a professional children's entertainer. So, where do you start? If you see a good entertainer at another birthday party, ask for their card. The Internet's a good place, you can Google an entertainer. Go on the local advertising sites, look in Yellow Pages, find a listing of local agencies. But my advice is to ask the entertainer or the entertainment agency exactly what you're going to get for your money. For example, if I'm booked as the pirate, I simply would go directly to my web site. They can see me dressed in my pirates outfit and they know what they're going to get. At the end of the day, you're going to get what you pay for. Children's entertainers should be skilled. They should have various things that they can offer you such as face painting. If you're booking a clown, they should be able to juggle, do magic, story telling. I love playing a Disney princess. Hiring an entertainer is going to make the party easier and fun."
