Why parents call us the best kids party in Chicago
Kids love to make things, especially things that feel grown-up. That's why our parties center on real beauty products, made by each child at a beautifully styled bar.
First, a host welcomes every guest and explains the station. Next, each child chooses her colors, scents, or sparkle. Finally, she takes home a finished product with her name on it.
Parents also love the details. We bring customized decor, personalized signage, mirrors, and florals, so the party looks as special as it feels.
Plan the beauty bar right after guests arrive. Kids settle in quickly when they have something to create, and their finished products double as party favors.
