Party Time Childrens Entertainers Are The Best Investment A Parent Can Make

A kids party is notoriously tricky

A kids party is notoriously tricky. Fill a location with over excited under 10s, a whole load of cake and sugary drinks: factor in the high probability that the weather will force everyone indoors for at least some of the day; and then add one or two sets of nervous parents, whod clearly rather be somewhere a little less intimidating. Whats to be done? Childrens entertainers are a good start. Bring on the clowns, the fancy dress balloon animal making dude and the mini disco, and the whole affair becomes a lot less complicated.

The thing about children is this: they know their boundaries. They know them, because theyve spent the whole of their little lives to date testing them. So, any adult put in charge of a group of kids he or she knows, hasnt a hope. The little loves will have sussed out exactly how far they can go with this one, and that one, years before. Childrens entertainers, though, are a different proposition. First, they look funny, in their fancy dress (kids are never quite sure what to make of someone whose looks they cant decipher); and second, they are not (barring some kind of staggering coincidence) known to any of the kids at the party.

Anyone who has kids, or who has spent any time with kids (or even can remember being one themselves), will tell you: children dont act up in front of adults they dont know. Thats because they have no reference no idea where this particular adults snapping boundary might be. Add to that the fact that when the adults in question are childrens entertainers, whose profession involves distracting large groups of over excited boys and girls, one quickly realises that one would be onto a winner even if this cost a million quid.

Also: using entertainers frees up the actual parents at a party to do some proper party policing. Every successful childs party owes its success, in some part, to the quality of parental overseeing: stopping a tantrum here, attending to a grazed knee there. When party policing is a parents only job, it tends to go off without a hitch. Its only when parents are expected to be childrens entertainers as well as cops that they run into trouble. A person simply cant entertain and police in the same breath. It doesnt work particularly not when the entertainment/police is known to the children in question. That would be like the village Bobby doing a song and dance routine and buying you a drink before arresting you.

A successful kids party, then, is all about planning - about separating the executive and legislative bodies, as it were, so that a strike at both can never occur. Good childrens entertainers are organisational gold, offering the mums and dads free rein to get on with the food, the drink and the molly coddling. Between the two arms of state, the entertainment and the police, one can expect to thrash out the kind of childs bash one might even enjoy just a little oneself.
