A strong birthday schedule gives children enough variety without asking them to switch activities every few minutes. For many parties, a two-hour window is long enough to feel special while remaining manageable for young guests.

One practical schedule

  1. First 20–30 minutes: Guest arrival and simple free play.
  2. Next 30–45 minutes: The magic show, once most guests have arrived.
  3. Next 20 minutes: Food, cake and singing.
  4. Final 25–40 minutes: Balloon art, presents or relaxed play.
Why the show works earlyScheduling the performance after arrivals—but before cake—gives the room a clear focal point while attention and energy are still strong.

Adjust for your package

Longer packages with additional balloon time need more breathing room. Share your overall party window with Keir so the entertainment can be placed naturally rather than squeezed between other activities.
