Expert Tips for Choosing the Right Children’s Entertainer
With so many children’s entertainers in Hampshire, Surrey, and beyond, how do you choose the right one for your child’s big day? Here’s your guide to finding the perfect entertainer:
Price is important, but…
remember—it’s your child’s birthday once a year! Make sure it’s memorable for the right reasons.
Recommendations:
Ask your friends for suggestions! The names that pop up most often are usually the ones to trust. Plus, you’ll find out who to avoid. A pro entertainer will have plenty of positive testimonials to share.
Specialisation:
Does the entertainer specialize in your child’s age group? Some will take any booking for any age (and often at any price). The best ones focus on specific age ranges to make sure the show is age-appropriate and fun.
Professionalism:
A top entertainer will be organised, friendly, and on top of things. Do they respond quickly? Do they provide written confirmation and take a deposit? A good entertainer will explain the show format and keep you in the loop.
Stress-Free Party:
For a little extra, some entertainers will take care of everything—hosting the party, running the games, and handling the entertainment—so you can relax and focus on the food and enjoy watching the kids having fun!
Many can provide party bags as well…again saving you time and expense.
Shy or nervous kids?
You don’t need a loud, shouty entertainer to keep the kids entertained. In fact, some of the best performers create a calmer, more professional environment where all children—whether confident or shy—can enjoy the fun. A more thoughtful, engaging approach can make for a memorable party where every child feels included and comfortable.
Investing in a calm, professional entertainer can make all the difference in creating a relaxed and fun atmosphere for all kids—whether they’re outgoing or a little more reserved!
Animals in the show? Think twice!
Comedy puppets bring all the laughter and excitement kids (and adults!) love, without the need for live animals. It’s all in the fun – a safe, engaging, and stress-free way to entertain, creating a memorable experience without the worry of animal welfare or transportation in extreme weather.
Courtesy call:
The best entertainers will check in with you the day before the party to put your mind at ease. Not all entertainers do this—but the best ones will!
Your gut feeling counts too—quick replies, great references, and professional materials are all signs of a solid choice.
Remember:
Good children’s entertainers are worth every penny! If the idea of chaos at your child’s party is your worst nightmare, investing in a quality professional will make all the difference.

With the right entertainer, you can ensure your child’s special day is filled with fun, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime!”
