Children learn with their hands. So we build each party around touching, mixing, painting and planting, guided by friendly hosts who take care of every detail while you enjoy the day.

Pick the experiences for your party

Book one station or combine several. Each one arrives with its materials, its setup and a host if you'd like one.

Questions parents ask

What ages are your parties for?

From babies to pre-teens. Baby sessions are made for first birthdays, sensory bins suit ages 2 to 6, the girls' party experience is for ages 5 to 12, and face painting, canvas painting and mini gardening work for all ages.

Where do you host?

We come to you: your home, a clubhouse, a park or the venue you booked, in Charlotte, NC and nearby. Tell us the location when you write and we'll confirm.

What do you bring?

Everything the experience needs: materials, tables or stands, and the hosts. Setup and cleanup are included.

Can you match our party theme?

Yes. Sensory bins, canvases and face painting designs can all be customized. Recent themes include unicorns, Toy Story, space and dinosaurs.

How much does it cost?

Each party is quoted based on the experiences you choose, the number of children and the length of the event. Send us the details and we'll reply with a quote.

How far in advance should we book?

As soon as you have your date. Weekends fill up first, and booking early gives us time to prepare your theme.
