1. Clowns
Clowns are a good base choice for children’s entertainment as many clowns also offer additional entertainment options such as balloon modelling and more.

2. Children’s Magicians
There is nothing quite like the look on a child’s face when they witness magic for the first time. Children’s magicians are well trained in entertaining children and performing simple magic tricks that will blow their little minds! Using small objects such as colourful balls, ribbons, coins and more, a Children’s Magician will usually require the help of a volunteer or two and get your little guests involved in the action. A Children’s Magician is also very versatile when it comes to the ages of your younger guests as many older children will appreciate this type of entertainment too!

3. Face Painters
Face Painters are a firm favourite with children of Primary School age. They are perfect for Summer events such as family fun days, outdoor birthday parties or charity events. Generally, a Face Painter will position themselves in a central location where the younger guests to your event take turns getting their faces painted and being transformed into animals, superheroes, princesses and more! Face Painters usually have plenty of practice and can work to quite short deadlines, however it is worth considering how many children will be attending your upcoming event and how long it will last for.

4. Puppeteers
Another fun form of children’s entertainment is that of a puppeteer. Puppeteers are coming back into fashion in a big way and watching children’s faces light up as their favourite characters come to life! This type of entertainment is probably more suited to children of Primary School age. Many puppeteers have a variety of puppets too, so boredom is easily kept away! Remember those old Punch and Judy shows on the beach as a child? Relive those memories and book a puppeteer today!
5. Bubble Performer
Bubble performers are a relatively new type of entertainment yet can be mesmerising and fun for children too! They perform plenty of stunts using bubbles, such as making giant bubbles with people in them, square bubbles, hundreds of bubbles and more! Although this might seem like a strange choice in entertainment, it is perfect for outdoor Summer events! Find a Bubble Performer for your upcoming event and give the kids a surprise!
6. Balloon Modeller
Another type of entertainment that is very versatile is the balloon modeller. These talented individuals will create sculptures and shapes out of balloons. Children can watch as animals, flowers, hats and more magically appear out of balloons and sometimes a balloon modeller will let children have a go too! Again, this type of entertainment is very suited to festivals and Summer events, however it equally works for indoor events too! Click here and find a balloon modeller for your next event!
