Penney the Clown!

Helpful Hint #1
Don't forget to allow at least 30 minutes from your party's announced start time for all your guests to arrive before the magic show starts. OR start with face painting while the guests are arriving. That way no one has to wait in line, and no one misses the show if they're a little late.

Helpful Hint #2
If you're having your party outdoors, bring a garbage bag to keep the kids' balloons in so they don't pop on the grass. Penney will write the children's names on the balloons, and you can hand them out to each child as they leave. That way, no one has a meltdown because their balloon popped and Penney isn't there to make a new one!

Helpful Hint #3
Face painting or balloons can be happening during lunch and/or cake to save time and keep kids from becoming too antsy while they wait their turn.

Helpful Hint #4
Arrange the kids in alphabetical order to have a turn in the face painting chair. That way, they can go play 'til their name is called, and no one has to stand in line.
