He did such an amazing job! The kids and the adults had a great time watching his show. The magic and the balloons both were superb! All the parents wanted a card from him before he left. Truly a hit and made the party an enjoyable experience. Thank you for being amazing with all the kids. Flexible and patient! I was absolutely book again for an adult or kid party! He was the best!

It was great seeing you again Mr. Jim. I had an awesome experience hiring him last time for my son's party, so I was happy to hire him again for my daughter's party. He entertained the kids with his magic show, created balloon animals and swords, and stayed longer to face paint. Thanks again Jim !!!!

We were so pleased with Jimmy's abilities at face painting and balloon artistry. He was a A+ hit with the kids. He adjusted his set-up to work with the super wind that was present. Will recommend him and use him again. Great personality!

Jim was wonderful at our daughter's Birthday party. It was full of 5-year olds who were very entertained by Jim's balloon art, face art and he even kept them all entertained as they waited in line to get their faces painted and balloons made. The kids had a lot of fun with him!

We had a birthday party for my 4 year old, and about 15 kids. Jim was great with the shy kids, and his balloon creations were first class (the Spiderman balloon got taken to bed for a week) and he even found time to do my face-painting so I could be a proper 'Cat in the Hat"
Although he could do magic, the kids were a bit young - but my 6 year old loved the 'pulling the idea out of his head' trick.
Highly recommended!
