Children's party
in Nijmegen
A programme with a fixed order. The children always know what is coming, and there is no gap in which it gets out of hand. From €15 per child.
The layout of an hour and a half to two hours
A children's party of an hour and a half to two hours needs a fixed layout, otherwise a gap appears in which nobody knows what is coming. The first ten minutes go on arriving, taking off coats and the last children still being dropped off. Then comes a short challenge that everyone can join straight away, even those who are late. The middle section is the longest and has the most build-up. The last twenty minutes are for the finale and the result, because ending without a winner feels to children like being cut short.
We stick to that order and look after the pace, so the parents can sit with the group instead of having to pull it along. If an element goes faster than expected, the host moves something forward without it being noticeable. What we need from you is a room or a piece of outdoor space, power, and an indication of the number of children. We're ready half an hour before the start to set up.

Frequently asked questions
What happens to children who arrive later?
Children who arrive later join in at the first element, which is deliberately built for that. No explanation gets lost, because the real build-up only starts once everyone is there.
Why does a party with you last at least an hour and a half?
A children's party with us lasts an hour and a half to two hours, excluding the food. Shorter is possible, but then the build-up towards the end is lost, and that is exactly the part children talk about.
Do parents have to help during the party?
You don't need to help. We take on the hosting, so the parents can sit with the group. Joining in is of course welcome, and with the youngest groups an extra pair of hands with dressing up is handy.
Does it make a difference to the price if the party is shorter?
The duration counts, but below an hour and a half it rarely gets cheaper. The set-up and the hosting stay the same, while it is precisely the build-up towards the finale that is lost. We'll tell you honestly if shorter is sensible in your case.
