They offer the following suggestions for How to Find a Great Clown for Your Child’s Birthday Party! They have offices throughout California including in Los Angeles and Orange County as well as the San Francisco San Jose and Sacramento area. 
Number one is to figure out approximately the number of children who will be attending the party, as well as a ballpark as to the ages. If most of the kids will be under the age of 9, that is a great time to hire a clown performer. Clown entertainers work best for groups of kids between the ages of 2 – 9 years old. That’s because kids under 2 can’t really appreciate the activities that a clown does, and once kids get to be much over 10 years old they start to lose interest in clowns. So parties for younger kids are definitely the target region when deciding whether or not to hire a clown or some other form of children’s entertainment.
Once you have decided for sure to hire a clown, you can figure out what activity options you would like them to do at the party. All Funfactoryparties.com clown performers can do balloon animal twisting as well as face – painting, magic tricks and singing children’s songs and playing party games. Depending on the number of kids involved and their ages, that will factor in as to which activities would be preferable. If most of the kids will be over 4 years old then having the clown focus on balloon animals and face painting will definitely be a great package for your party. If the kids will be younger children or toddlers then Fun Factory recommends having the clown gear their activities more towards that age range and focus more on doing songs and party games like hokey pokey and if you’re happy and you know it. Kids under 4 have a harder time sitting still and waiting to get their faces painted or wait their turn for a balloon animal.
