Jumping Castles

Children love Jumping Castles and will naturally gravitate to it throughout the party, so hiring one for your next birthday party is a great entertainment idea for toddlers. The jumping castle company should have many different sized and themed jumping castles to choose from so you can find one suitable to your child’s age/abilities and interests. Generally, most companies will include the set up and pack down of the jumping castle within the hire price so you don’t have to do anything.

Face Painting

Hiring a face painter is also popular with younger children, who excitedly choose their face paint design and then wait patiently to have their faces painted. Most face painters will also create balloon animals for the birthday party guests. This is a great source of entertainment at the party or as a wonderful take home. Face painters will bring everything they need for the party including chair and table so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Superhero/ Fairy Entertainers

You may have noticed that your toddler is developing strong likes towards a particular superhero or loves fairies or princesses. Hiring a party entertainer around their likes can be a super fun birthday party idea. Usually the entertainer will play games with the children and keep them occupied and happy for a few hours. Unlike the previous options where the kids will come/go as they like, this form of entertainment generally keeps the kids supervised in the one area, leaving the parents free to mingle.

Animals

If your toddler is animal crazy, animal entertainment could be ideal for your party. There are many mobile animal farm options where the children can pet small animals. There are also Reptile party options where an ‘Animal Ranger’ will bring along a number of different reptiles; imparting knowledge and allowing the children to touch/feel/hold them. Pony Rides are another birthday party entertainment option involving animals.
