Entertainment That Keeps Every Guest Busy
Great party entertainment for kids does one thing well: it gives every child something to do at the same time. Our stations are built around that idea.
Guests rotate through tables in small groups, so nobody waits long. Each station has a host who explains, encourages, and helps when little fingers need it. Shy kids warm up fast when they have a task in front of them.
Perfume
Kids blend their own scent from kid-friendly options, with signage that suggests blends.
Lip Lab
Guests mix lip gloss, with a Kids tier for younger hands.
Skincare
Mini-facials led by licensed estheticians (licensed skincare professionals).
Bath
Bath bombs to bring home.
Candy
A candy cart styled to your theme.
Glitter & Glow
and a digital Photo Booth for extra sparkle.
Birthday Party Entertainment for Girls (and Their Friends)
Many families book us as birthday party entertainment for girls who love anything pretty, sparkly, or grown up. A hosted beauty party lets her feel like the guest of honor while her friends feel included.
It works for any guest who likes to create, too. Kids experiences are for ages 5 and up, and we adjust each station to the age of the group.
Long Chicago winters make this kind of party even more appealing. Instead of planning around the weather, you bring children's party entertainment Chicago kids love right to your kitchen table. Snow outside, sparkle inside, and nobody needs a coat.

Made by a trained perfumer
Every station was designed by our founder, Cheryl Gleason, a trained perfumer and cosmetic and skincare formulator who trained with master perfumer Karen Gilbert, at the Institute for Art and Olfaction, and through courses and workshops around the world. We ask about allergies when you book, and your contract covers allergen disclosures.

Why Parents Choose to Hire a Kids Party Host
When you hire a kids party host, you hand off the hardest part of the day: keeping a room full of kids happy and on track. That frees you to greet parents, serve cake, and take photos.
Here is what our team handles:
- Arriving one hour early to set up every station.
- Bringing linens, with room for you to style tables to your theme.
- Hosting each station for the entire party.
- Cleaning up before we leave.
You provide tables, or we bring them for a small fee. For bigger guest lists, extra hosts can be added so the flow stays smooth.
