A carnival theme is a party planners dream!! So many awesome entertainment options- games, dunk tank, face painting, animals, clowns, photo booth, trapeze, magician…
Here is what we did for entertainment!

DIY photo booth! Red curtains from Target Clearance rack and a pendant banner finished it off! We hung it on the china cabinet ! It was perfect!!

The kids had a blast with the photo booth... The mustaches and glasses were the big hits!

Al Mazing was booked for the kids birthday party before the carnival theme ever crossed my mind. We had seen him at another party and he is all my kids talked about for a whole year! Always a good idea to have some stationary entertainment!

All has been entertaining Pittsburgh since 1996! We are so lucky to have him!

Brady says Al’s best “trick” is when he chooses a girl and a boy to join him on stage and asks them how long they have been married! (Giggles!!)

I would call it magic comedy!! Kids who attended the party a few weeks ago are still talking about Al Mazing's Show!

This is the thing about Al, the kids (and the adults) did not stop laughing! I don’t remember the last time I saw my dad really belly laugh like that! Tricks, jokes, props, everyone was mesmerized the entire 45 minutes! He was Al Mazing for sure and did not dissappoint!

After the magic show, Dana Bush from Face Painting Designs by Dana was set up and ready to go! We loved the fact that she gave each child a number and they could go play/eat until their turn!!

Two beautiful ladybugs!!
