What do you think is better at a 1st birthday with poll
I am not sure how much entertainment to get - and want to see what you think I should DEF. get.
We will be having about 50 kids - but about half of them are under the age of 2.
Any input would also be appreciated!

Re: What do you think is better at a 1st birthday with poll
In my experience, the little ones LOVE the bouncer, not so much with the face painting, some parents are anti- cotton candy, and clowns are a hit or miss. Some kids love them, some are fearful.
I say definitely get the bouncer. Probably on the clown. Maybe's on the cotton candy and face painting.

I would stay away from a cotton candy machine. Do you really need 25 kids under two hopped up on more sugar than the cake and food?

Tough one. A lot of little kids are scared of clowns, so I'd probably not do one since you have so many kids coming odds are good someone will get freaked out.

The clowns are the cute ones from Twinketown.
Good point about the cotton candy also!

Clowns are too scary, and if my kid eats cotton candy...well, he is going home with YOU!

Re: What do you think is better at a 1st birthday with poll
I would skip the cotton candy .. sticky mess. You should see what the age is for the bouncy. If 25 out of 50 kids cannot go into it I think you are going to hear a lot of crying.

Re: What do you think is better at a 1st birthday with poll
I said that last option. If the clown was along the lines of a Kimbo, you're ok. If it s a traditional clown clown, I might skip it for the little ones.

Re: What do you think is better at a 1st birthday with poll
those clowns are cute. I think they would be a hit, being silly and fun. At DS's Christening most of the kids were under 3 and they loved the clown.

Not for me ladies, not for me.

Re: What do you think is better at a 1st birthday with poll
I would do the bouncer, face painting and clown and skip the cotton candy (it makes a mess).
We went to a wedding reception last may and it was in their backyard. They actually had a bouncer and Luka loved it and he was only 13 months.

Def. the bouncey thing!
BTW, that one clown freaked me out. Ever since Poltergiest as a child clowns scare me they might scare some of the kids.

Re: What do you think is better at a 1st birthday with poll
Thanks everyone for your advice.
I think I will do the bouncer with the face painting - and one clown. That's all. No cotton candy.
I think you all just saved me some money -- and for that - my DH thanks you!
