As a parent myself, I understand that a lot goes into planning events (including our kids’ birthday parties), and realise at the last minute to find and arrange activities that will keep our kids entertained and for them to talk about it for a long time afterwards.

With numerous kids entertainment and activity ideas, here are my recommendations of how to turn your event from ordinary to extraordinary!

Professional entertainers

There are numerous professional entertainers which can be selected based on the theme and what your child likes. These include magicians, circus performers, puppeteers, beloved characters or even mascots. Kids entertainers are skillful in creating VIP meet-and-greets, and engaging kids with interactive yet sophisticated activities and entertainment, which can even wow adults!

My recommendations in Sydney:

Gaming stations

This arcade option works well with kids who especially enjoy a lot of gaming. A gaming area can be created with the latest video games and consoles, virtual reality experience, and even interactive gaming systems and real-life circuits. I would also consider hiring a professional gaming host to supervise the kids, but also enhance the gaming experience.

My recommendations in Sydney:

Spa experience

Having a spa experience in an intimate setting is a perfect girl’s dream to celebrate her birthday. Kids are pampered and relaxed, while being able to eat, dance and have imaginative play. This is definitely a boutique once-in-a-lifetime experience that would be talked about for a long time!

My recommendations in Sydney:

Petting zoos

For the young and wild, who like to get up close to animals, they will enjoy having their next birthday at a petting zoo. Birthday parties at a petting zoo include professional handlers who provide educational yet fun and engaging sessions and also ensure the safety of the kids.

My recommendations in Sydney:

Outdoor adventure activities

There are numerous outdoor adventure activities that take your child’s birthday to the next level and can cater for parties as well. These include zip-lining, rock climbing, mini obstacle course, horseback riding. Kids are supervised by experienced and trained professionals the whole time for safety reasons.

My recommendations in Sydney:

Exclusive theme park experience

In some theme parks, a section of the theme park can be rented out for a private and exclusive experience. This also allows children to enjoy the rides and attractions without the crowds, making the experience more fun.

My recommendations in Sydney:

Sports parties

Sports parties are becoming more popular for active kids who love sports! In sports centres, you can hire a professional coach to create an experience where they can teach children how to play the sport (like tennis, soccer or rugby) while making the experience more enjoyable.

My recommendations in Sydney:

Interactive classes and shows

To keep kids engaged, a professional can be hired to deliver an interactive and awe-inspiring experience. Examples include a celebrity chef to lead a hands-on culinary experience, and a science performer who can create captivating experiments and demonstrations.

My recommendations in Sydney:

As an event planner, I enjoy engaging with my clients to customise and tailor the experience and entertainment for the birthday child (or adult!). This uplifts the overall event itself, making it memorable and enjoyable for everyone.
