What do your parties cost?
We have a variety of programs designed to meet a variety of interests and budgets. Costs vary depending on the size of the group, length of time and services provided. Give us a call to discuss your individual needs.

Who is your staff?
Our Program Leads are teachers, former teachers or theater professionals trained as children’s entertainment specialists. Our Assistants are high school and college students interested in a career working with children.

What does the staff wear?
We call ourselves Party People and dress in primary colored vests –a look which is welcoming to children, never frightening.

How are your activities run at birthday parties and corporate events?
Our trademark is the variety of activities we bring to an event, be it private or corporate. The activities flow seamlessly between each other. There isn't a time during the program where children are not engaged. For our larger events, we set up activity stations -- children spend their time doing what interests them so they can "play" at their own speed.

Is there a group too large or too small?
We have entertained groups as small as one child to as big as 1,000 children. We have a large staff that specializes in working with particular age groups and can accommodate any size gathering.

What ages do you work with?
Although we are finding that our activities are attractive to even adults, we focus on ages 1 to 10 for private parties and 2 to 12 for corporate programs. Please know, however, that we welcome any age to participate in our programs whenever possible.

What options do I have if I don't want a party in my home?
We host parties at The Milwaukee Public Museum and at the Muggsy's Meadow at Southridge Mall. We will also travel to you, should you desire a different location.

How long are your events?
Our in-home birthday parties are typically 90 minutes; however, full service parties are longer. Parties at Southridge Mall or the Milwaukee Public Museum are 2+ hours. Corporate events are usually 2+ hours.

Do you provide party bags or favors for the parties?
Party favors are an addition which can be ordered through us for any party. Our cookie decorating kits make a unique wonderful favor as well.

What type of lead-time do you need? Do you do parties any time?
It's always a good idea to book programs 2 to 3 weeks out – longer lead-time is often needed during the busy holidays. Give us a call or e-mail us, we may have an opening available on shorter notice. We do parties on weekends and during the week. Our schedule is very flexible.

How long have you been in business?
The Children’s Entertainment Company has been entertaining children for the past 17 years in Southeastern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois.
