Best party entertainers for kids in Singapore

Best for glow-in-the-dark face painting

What’s better than face and arm painting? Glow-in-the-dark painting, that’s what. It works best if you’re throwing an evening party or, err, if you just switch off the lights. Designs run the gamut from flowers, butterflies, spiders and hearts to more intricate ones such as animals, superheroes and even Pokémon. À la carte services start from $150 – each artist paints for an hour for up to 15 kids – while basic packages begin at $400 for two artists. Happier does balloon sculpting and decoration arches, too.

Best for magic shows

Magic shows never get old, and Jazz Ang knows that. The magician goes by the name of Mr Rabbit – presumably a nod to the bunnies-out-of-the-hat illusion – and turns up to birthday parties (from $380) armed with a portable sound system, a ‘stage’ and a fistful of tricks up his sleeves, including making a table fly. And besides a 30-minute performance, Ang twists balloons and hosts the cutting of the birthday cake. With over a decade of experience in the game, you can be sure Mr Rabbit knows his stuff.
