If you are looking for Vancouver children’s entertainment, you have a wide variety of options. Parties and events have always attempted to entertain their guests since the beginning of time. From jesters in the medieval court to modern day acts, entertainment is a staple for people when they get together. Specifically, parties for children are even more desperately in need of an act to keep the children’s interest. They have a notoriously short attention span, so you need entertainment that is going to get them interested, keep their interest, and make them happy.

Not all children are the same, so it might be wise to check with them and their parents to find out what they enjoy the most before choosing a form of entertainment. Luckily, there is a Metro Vancouver-Surrey, British Columbia directory specifically for children’s entertainment! Contained in the directory is something for just about any child and the acts are rated and ranked in a clear way. This means one should be able to find entertainment that the adults are as likely to enjoy as the kids.

There is something for just about every budget in this directory. There are clowns for as little as 33 dollars per hour by Affordable Kids Birthday Clowns, all the way up to extreme events such as balloon rides for over 500 dollars per hour with Port Moody, British Columbia Hot Air Balloons! Excellent magicians such as Bobby the Magician are listed for about 75 dollars per hour. With roughly 2,000 Facebook likes according to the Metro Vancouver-Surrey, British Columbia directory, you know Bobby the Magician is probably a quality act. In fact, there are ratings, age recommendations, and video reviews for almost every Vancouver children’s entertainment package.

Another interesting act for about 60 dollars is the Vancouver, BC Balloon Twisters. People seem to be extremely pleased with this act because they deliver. This is also a reasonable price to hire a talent of this caliber. Perhaps you feel your children’s party should have mascots. Younger children especially love these acts. There are plenty of mascots for hire as well, including one that has Pooh, Mickey, Diego, Dora and Elmo. This is sure to grab the attention of younger children and those young at heart alike.

One attraction that almost every amusement park currently employs is face painting. You may want to consider this, perhaps in coordination with other acts, for some real quality Vancouver children’s entertainment.  It is fun for the parents to see cute children painted in various ways, and even more interesting to see how their imagination shines through.

The truth is, every party should have some sort of entertainment for the guests it entertains. Once you have established your budget, you must also do your research on the different types of entertainment. Nobody wants a disappointed child on their birthday, and the Vancouver-Surrey BC directory can ensure that you only get quality Vancouver children’s entertainment. If you do your research using this valuable tool, you are certain to get your money’s worth and put a smile on your child’s face. The fact is, if you can’t find appropriate children’s entertainment in Vancouver at the right price here for your party, you probably aren’t going to be able to find it anywhere!

You can find the best in kid’s entertainment in Vancouver. 

Kids love clowns. Most clowns are appropriate for kids of all ages. They can entertain kids with stories, balloon twisting, juggling, and face paintings. They tell stories, and play with the children.

Birthday parties are a special time for kids. They look forward to it throughout the year. They even fantasize about it and often ask their parents what they are planning. They love clowns because clowns play like kids. The kid around, tells stories, and face paint. They twist balloons. They get down with the kids and play with their toys. They can do unique face and hand painting, which kids just love.

Some of these clowns understand that some kids are frightened by face paint, and they avoid that practice. They still wear funny hats and large bow ties. They ensure your kids have a wonderful and delightful birthday party. All of these clowns are available in Vancouver.

One good example is Kayy the clown. Like most clowns in Vancouver, she has been in business since for years and knows kids. She trained under a professional clown for five years before she started her own business, so she knows how to entertain kids. She offers several full packages of entertainment that includes magic, balloon arts, and face painting. She offers party themes and different characters to suit your needs. Her rates are reasonable and her style is fun and interactive. She is an excellent alternative to your kid’s birthday party needs.

Most of these clowns can come to your home or school. They can even come to a preschool if that is what you want. They are available in the hours you need. They provide their own transportation. 

Balloon twisting is an art that clowns excel in and kids love. They are fascinated in how you can take a bunch of balloons and make animals and people out of them and they can keep them as well. This definitely brings smiles to all the kids at your party.

They love face painting of all kinds. They can pretend they are someone else as one of their favorite cartoon characters or just an interesting animal or object. Vancouver clowns have many years of experience at this art. The colors are safe and easy to remove. They produce smiles all around. 

Vancouver clowns for a birthday party do give parents a comfortable feeling, knowing that these clown are fun, safe and the good ones have references. Most have websites so you can go and see what they have to offer. You can get rates, and times available. You can even see videos of parties these clowns have been involved with.

If you want something special to delight and interest your kid’s birthday party, you want to check out the many Vancouver clowns birthday party services. They can entertain your children with those things kids love such as face painting, balloon twisting, music, and magic shows. They are experienced, safe, and can tailor your party to your needs. 

Everyone loves a good clown, right? They are the highlight of any circus, and fond memories can be built around these types of entertainers. Bringing the fun and liveliness of the circus into your living room or backyard is a great way to make it memorable. So, hire yourself a clown! But how do you find a Surrey, BC clown, especially one that you know will delight your guests? You wouldn’t want to get stuck with a bad clown, because the only thing worse than a sad clown are sad guests.

Let’s start by taking a look at one of the newest ways to promote yourself in today’s marketplace: Facebook. Private entertainers like the Surrey, BC clown that you’re searching for now have their own Facebook pages, offering valuable information to potential customers like yourself.

Not only are reviews from past clients and customers often posted directly onto their Facebook profiles, but the amount of “likes” they receive is another great indication of their popularity. The more “likes” the more success you will have in finding a Surrey, BC clown that you will have a positive experience with.

To simplify things, let’s scout around Facebook and pull up a few choice candidates for your party or corporate event. First, we’ll start at the bottom and work our way upward. When we reach our final candidate you’ll be very surprised to see just how people this entertainer really is! That’s not to say that the higher on this list the better clown you are, as everyone has personal preferences, but it certainly is something to consider.

Sugar the Clown only has one “like” bump on Facebook. That doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t hire Sugar the Clown, but maybe you’re just the right person to give Sugar a chance! Sugar is listed as being suitable for kids ranging from ages four and up. That includes adults, too, so keep Sugar in your memory for booking at a corporate event or fundraiser.

Moving up the list a little bit, we see that getting around the hundred “likes” mark is not only doable, but multiple people are reaching that status. Gizmo the Clown, for example, is sitting comfortably at one hundred Facebook “likes,” along with Joseph the Magician. It seems that the more services you offer as a clown, such as magic acts, the more chances you’ll have at pleasing your clients and customers. Getting around a hundred “likes” is pretty respectable, and the fact that both of these entertainers are purported as kid and adult friendly helps as well. Who knows? Maybe they would even make a good team!

But a hundred “likes” on Facebook is hardly the limit! Continuing to look over our lists, we find lots more entertainers that have collected plenty more reviews and positive feedback.

Such as the Clownin’ Around Magic Shop. If you’re not interested in hiring a stranger to perform for your friends and family, then maybe you could become your very own Surrey, BC clown! With a hundred and forty-two Facebook “likes” they must be doing something right! Pick up everything you need to become a clown yourself, and save a few bucks in the process by forgoing hiring someone else to do a job you might be able to do yourself, so long as you have the right provisions.

Just how high do you think the Facebook “likes” go? You’re about to find out and the answer may surprise you!

Reaching an amazing six hundred and ninety-four Facebook “likes” is the Krayon Kids Musical Theatre Company. This business has multiple entertainers, including clowns, that can give your party of function a larger than life appeal. They promise to boost the atmosphere in the right direction, and with nearly seven hundred “like” hits, it’s hard to believe that they couldn’t deliver on that promise.

But that’s still not as high as we can climb! Bobby’s Face Painters and Balloon Artists in Vancouver, BC serves the Surrey area, and they have collected a whopping one thousand, one hundred and eighty-one Facebook “likes!” Can you imagine ever getting that many hits on your own Facebook profile? Imagine the hard work and dedication to service that this company must undergo to have such staggering feedback like that!

But wait! To be cliché, that’s not all! We have one more Facebook profile to look at that will make you do an honest double-take at the results. You’ll wonder if we’ve fudged the number of hits just to impress you, but trust us, we haven’t!

Balloon Twisters tops the pile with an astounding two thousand and three Facebook hits, making them soar above the rest of the competition. Basically, if you’re in the market for a Surrey, BC clown then you had better book these guys fast! Due to their unbelievable popularity it isn’t hard to imagine that they don’t have a lot of last minute undertakings, meaning that they’re booked solid. Why else would they have such amazing results posted to their Facebook profile?

Regardless of the type of event you’re planning, one of these amazing clowns and performers will be able to satisfy even the most skeptical of guests. It’s a clown’s job to bring out a laugh in everyone, right? And the more positive feedback you see online, specifically on Facebook, the more likely that your chosen entertainer will succeed in their goal and make everyone happy.

Everyone does love a good clown, but finding exactly the right one can either make or break your social event. The wrong entertainer can make kids cry, lower proceeds for a charitable event, or make your corporate event a total disaster. Choosing the right one can be based on what other people think, because if they’ve have a good enough experience to take the time to post on their Facebook profile, or even hit the “like” button, then it’s a safe bet that entertainer is good enough for you.

Or, if you’re feeling particularly fun, order up a whole bunch of clowns and see how many you can fit into your car!
