Yes! Text us anytime at 718-304-6922 with your event date, time, and the service you're interested in. We'll reply with availability and pricing. Texting is great if you're busy and can't make a phone call — we usually respond within a few hours, often much faster.
We recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks in advance to guarantee your preferred date and time, especially for weekend events during our busy season (spring and summer). That said, we understand plans can come together quickly — contact us and we'll do our best to accommodate last-minute requests. Since no deposit is required, there's no risk in booking early!

Payment Questions

No — we never require a deposit for any of our services. We believe in earning your trust before asking for payment. Simply book your event and pay when the performer arrives. This applies to magic shows, foam parties, reptile shows, character visits, and all add-ons. Zero risk, zero upfront cost.
Payment is due when the performer arrives at your event. You don't pay a single penny until you see your entertainer at the door, in costume, and ready to go. We accept various payment methods — just ask when you book and we'll let you know your options.
No hidden fees! The price we quote is the price you pay. We don't charge setup fees, breakdown fees, or surprise surcharges. For most locations in our service area (Staten Island, NY and central New Jersey), there are no travel fees either. If your location is outside our standard area, we'll let you know upfront before you book.

Where We Perform

We serve Staten Island (New York) and a wide area of central New Jersey including Sayreville, Woodbridge, Freehold, Manalapan, Marlboro, Red Bank, and Long Branch. We're constantly expanding our coverage area, so if you don't see your town listed, don't hesitate to ask — we may still be able to come to you!
No travel fees to most nearby locations in our service area! We travel to Staten Island, Sayreville, Woodbridge, Freehold, Manalapan, Marlboro, Red Bank, Long Branch, and surrounding areas at no extra charge. For locations further out, we'll discuss any applicable travel fee with you before booking so there are never any surprises.
Yes! We perform at homes, backyards, parks, party venues, restaurants, schools, daycares, community centers, churches, and more. For indoor events, we just need a small area for setup (about 4x4 feet for most services). For foam parties, we need an outdoor area with a water source. Let us know your venue and we'll let you know if there's anything special to prepare.

About Our Services

Our services are designed primarily for children ages 1–12, but kids of all ages enjoy them! Magic shows work great for ages 3–10, foam parties are popular with ages 4–14, reptile shows fascinate all ages, and character visits are beloved by kids ages 2–8. Our performers adjust their energy and activities to match the age group at every event.
Most of our services work beautifully both indoors and outdoors! Magic shows, character visits, face painting, balloon art, and reptile shows can be performed in any setting. Foam parties are outdoor-only and require a flat area with access to a water spigot. For outdoor events, we recommend having a shaded area available for the performers and activities.
If you've booked an outdoor event and rain is in the forecast, we'll work with you to find a solution. For most services, we can move indoors if space is available. For foam parties (which are outdoor-only), we can reschedule to a better date at no extra charge. We'll never leave you hanging — communication is key, and we'll reach out ahead of time if weather is a concern.
Absolutely! We offer a wide range of party add-ons including cotton candy, popcorn, photo keychains, face painting ($150/hr), balloon art ($150/hr), combo face painting + balloons ($190/hr), temporary tattoos, bubble machines, VIP bunny visits, and games with music. You can add these to any main service or book them standalone. No deposit required for add-ons!
Yes, we love performing at schools and daycares! We're experienced with large groups and institutional settings. Our magic shows, reptile shows, and character visits are especially popular for school events, end-of-year celebrations, holiday parties, and summer camp programs. Contact us for group pricing and availability.

Trust & Cancellation

Since we never require a deposit, cancellation is simple and stress-free. We ask that you give us as much notice as possible so we can open the slot for other families. If you need to reschedule instead of cancel, we're happy to work with you to find a new date. No fees, no penalties — we understand that life happens.
This is the question we love answering! Unlike many entertainment companies that rely on random subcontractors from Craigslist or gig apps, our performers are experienced, reliable members of our team. They've been with us, they know our standards, and they take pride in every performance. We confirm every booking and our performers arrive on time, in full costume, ready to deliver an amazing experience.
Three big differences: (1) We never require a deposit — pay when the performer arrives. (2) Our performers are NOT random subcontractors — they're reliable, experienced team members. (3) No travel fees to most locations. We've built our reputation on trust, quality, and making the booking process as stress-free as possible for busy parents.

The Bottom Line: No Deposit, No Risk, No Hassle

We make booking children's entertainment as easy and stress-free as possible. No deposit required, ever. Payment is due only when your performer arrives. No hidden fees, no travel charges to most locations, and reliable, experienced performers you can count on.
