Entertainment for 5th birthday

I decided to have my son's 5th birthday party up the block at the town park. I can rent out the picnic area and the kids can play on the playground (but we can't reserve that). Since I don't have to pay for a location (minus a small permit fee) i figured I can bring in some entertainment. So what kind of entertainment do you think I should get for 5 year olds. Or do I even need anything since they'll have the playground?

By me there's a local park that you can have birthday parties at. I have seen families bring games for the kids to play themselves. I think if you organize some things yourself you won't need entertainment.
Play music, bring some bats, balls, parachute (if you have), get some small cones, spoon and eggs... Have relays for the kids, water balloon toss, freeze dance party, etc. I think kids will love it. If one is failing and the kids get bored then move onto something else. After cake the kids can stay and play at the park or go home and you're done. Chat Icon
