FAQ's ...some helpful answers

 

I want a sleep over party, how can I do that?

Reserve the theme party of your choice for either Friday or Saturday evening at 6:00 pm.  After we entertain your guests and clean up, your party continues until you choose.

Do you have change rooms for the children?

No, they are not required as guests DO NOT get undressed.  Depending on the theme all costumes are designed to be worn over the child's clothing, a leotard or bathing suit.  We recommend that you inform your guests of this on your invitations.  Boys attending your party wear their costume over their clothing.

Are boys welcome?

Boys are welcome at all tea parties.  We have costumes for boys and they can fully participate in all activities.  Our fashion and spa parties are geared toward girls only.

What if a guest has food allergies?

Please inform us of any concerns and we will do our best to be accommodating. If a guest has severe allergies that we are unable to accommodate them, either you or the child's parent should provide alternate refreshments for that child.

Can other parents stay for the party?

Many of our parties are high-energy with make-up, dress-up, photo taking, crafts and LOTS of movement.  If there is ample room without interference, we welcome an audience.  However, we strive to create an environment of "fantasy" so we kindly request your assistance in keeping the noise level down so the party guests can hear and follow the directions of the theme-party specialist.

Can siblings of the guest stay for the party?

Siblings, who are not guests to the birthday child, are allowed to stay as long as they are supervised.  We provide many accessories that contain small parts at many of our parties and they may not be appropriate for very young children.  Also please remember that the package that you have paid for only includes entertainment and refreshments for the birthday child and their guests.  Unfortunately, we will not be able to accommodate unexpected guests or siblings of guests, as we prepare our parties based on the final headcount given to us prior to the party.

What happens if guests arrive late?

Our parties flow well with a pre-determined schedule, and work best when all guests arrive on time.  If you have a guest that arrives late they may join the party at whatever point it has progressed to.  This is necessary in order to provide the least amount of disruption to the party, and your understanding is appreciated.

Who takes care of a guest that has a behavior problem, or does not want to participate?

Our goal is to give you and your child a positive memorable experience. We realize that you may have other adult guests to entertain, however to help us accomplish our goal we need you to be available if the children become unsettled and need more than friendly persuasion to cooperate and not detract from the enjoyment of the party.

Can I have my party outdoors?

Yes, but a party director must pre-approve the location and weather must permit it.   We reserve the right to decide whether the outside area is suitable for our equipment.  Please keep in mind; the weather is subject to change.  Some things to consider about having your party outside: Have a back up plan and space indoors in the event of bad weather or a very hot/cold day.  Remember that children will not want to put on dress-up clothes if it’s very hot outside.
