🎁 Party Extras
Party Bags - From £1.75 each
Save time and money with our pre-made party bags, a popular and expected extra. Each bag is filled with a selection of fun items for boys and girls.
Deluxe Bag (£2.00): Contains 7 high-quality items.
Simply let me know your maximum numbers, and you only pay for the number you need on the day.
Balloon Models 75p each
While some entertainers use show time to make balloons, I believe a 50-minute magic show should be 50 minutes of magic!
Therefore, I am happy to supply balloon models as an add-on, made before your event for you to hand out. If my schedule allows after the show, I can also make them on-site. Please enquire for pricing.
🐇 A Note on Our Rabbit's Welfare
The inclusion of a live white rabbit is a magical highlight for children. I occasionally receive questions about this, and I want to provide complete reassurance.
The welfare of my rabbits is my absolute priority. They are first and foremost my beloved pets. They live together in a pair and are given plenty of space and time to run and play in my garden.
During a show, the rabbit is kept safe and comfortable in its carrier and is only brought out for a brief, supervised appearance that causes no stress or harm. This surprise moment is managed carefully to ensure a positive experience for both the children and the animal.

Party Advice & Tips for a Perfect Day
Party Advice & Tips for a Perfect Day
Here are some helpful hints from my experience to make your party a roaring success.
Planning & Booking:
Book Early: There are more halls than entertainers! Secure your magician first to avoid disappointment.
Venue Size: Choose a room that is big enough for your guests to be comfortable, but not so large that it feels empty and loses atmosphere.
Food, Decorations & Extras:
Avoid Over-Catering: Children are often too excited to eat much at parties. It's better to have a little left over than a lot of waste.
Skip the Party Poppers: For under-5s, the loud bangs can be frightening.
Balloons as Decorations: Round balloons look great, but be cautious. On the floor, they become a major distraction, and the sound of them popping can scare little ones.
Save the Hooters! Please do not give out noise-makers until after the entertainment is over.
For Outdoor Parties:
Consider the Elements: Sun can make children lethargic, burn skin, and dazzle the audience. Wind can blow a magician's props away!
Provide Shade: Use a gazebo or a shady tree and ensure the children wear hats. If this isn't possible, it's best to have the magic show indoors.
During the Entertainment:
Manage Little Wanderers: If toddlers (up to 3 years) wander near the performance area, please have a parent gently guide them away to avoid disruptions.
Rabbit Hygiene: Please ensure all children wash their hands after stroking the rabbit—a good practice after contact with any animal.
Parent Etiquette: Parents are welcome to stay! We just ask that they avoid loud conversations, which can be distracting for both the children and the entertainer. (I always include jokes for the adults, too!)
Minimise Distractions: If you have a bouncy castle, it is highly advisable to deflate it before the magic show begins.
