A variety of exciting activities to choose from

Fantastic selection of activities
“I’ve just been to my first Creation Station party and it was brilliant! Jamie and Isla loved decorating their party bags, painting their special boxes and using their imagination with clay. Lovely materials, ideas and music! Thank you.” Jane Urwin

Full package – Invitations and party bags are even included.
“Loads of fun was had by all the girls and Millie’s little brother. Louise has a lovely manner with the children… it was great to see them so engaged in the activities we chose – t-shirt decorating and jewellery/key-fob making. I can honestly say this was the most stress free party I’ve hosted. Louise set-up everything beforehand and cleared away when she’d finished. Best of all? – materials, invitations, music and party bags were supplied. I would thoroughly recommend. Thank you Louise!” Katherine Commandeur

Enjoyable for children and parents
“Wicked party! Kids had a fab time, as did their mummy who was in her element! Very well organised and fun fun FUN!” Michelle, Greenfield

No Mess
“Excellent party by Louise from mid-beds held for our 8 year old last Sunday! The children and adults thoroughly enjoyed themselves. 3 smashing activities including painting a canvas were carried out – and NO MESS! Louise thoroughly prepared our house with protective floor coverings. Thanks again Louise for a great party. I’d thoroughly recommend a creation station party if you’re looking for something different for your creative child!” Anne Marie Cross, Flitwick

Unique and Engaging Party Entertainment
“Just a quick note to say thank you very much for Harry and Thomas’ party on Saturday. Everyone had a good time and the boys especially enjoyed it (and we were able to concentrate on getting all the lunch etc. ready so it was very easy for us too!).
Lots of the parents commented on how it was nice to do something a bit different.” Jo Gray

Professional and friendly staff
“Thank you so much Angela for making Lewis’ first birthday party so special. All the children had a fantastic time – you tailored the party perfectly to meet the ‘fun’ requirements of a wide range of children. Leah (age 2) told me it was the best party ever and I know the parents were impressed as well as the kids! The party bags were excellent – it was a great idea letting them decorate their own. Your friendly and relaxed approach was the icing on the cake! I highly recommend an Arty Party to all parents who want their kids to have fun and get messy without having to tidy up!” Lewis’s Mummy

Mementoes to treasure
“Thank you so much for delivering such a professional and enjoyable party. All the children really enjoyed themselves and Autumn had a great time. The treasure chest that she made is sitting in pride of place in her bedroom.” Pam C

Engaging and fun discovery

Pride in their creations
“My 5 year old really enjoyed celebrating his birthday with a Creation Station Arty Party, the activities were fantastic, and Louise arrived in plenty of time to get set up and ready.

People travel far and wide for a Creation Station Arty Party
“I just wanted to say thank you for hosting William’s party on Sunday. All the kids thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the parents thought it was lovely to have a keep sake. Some of our friends had travelled from Essex just for the party and hadn’t seen anything like it before and they were really impressed!” William’s Mummy

Stands out from other party entertainment

Music, Games and Fun
“A huge thank you for Evie’s 6th birthday party last week-end. Evie and all her friends had a fantastic time, and many Mums have commented on all the lovely artwork the children came home with. You managed to fit so much into 2 hours, and keep the attention of 12 very excitable children very well. The imagination game with the glittery cloths was a lovely addition.” Evie’s Mummy

Fun for all ages
“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for running Poppy’s party. She really enjoyed herself and so did all the other children we invited. Several of the other mums commented to me that it was such a great idea and on how much their children enjoyed it. This included children from 2 up to the age of 7.” Karen Bingley

Eye-catching and interactive for the children
“Thank you so much for yesterday’s party, the children had a great time! I thought the visuals were very eye catching for the children, bright aprons, bags laid out etc., so that got their interest very early on. The party bags and certificates were also a great touch”

Free invitations and party bags

Fantastic party bag items
“What a great party! One mum said to me that the contents of a party bag usually just get chucked away but, on this occasion everything had been kept! The clay pieces were on display in the house. Her little girl’s canvas was in the wall of her bedroom and the boy’s canvas was taking pride of place in his Grandma’s kitchen! Poppy’s clay piece is on our window sill and she regularly goes to look at it. Her canvas is awaiting hanging on the stairs wall!” Steve Bingley

“Thanks again for the brilliant party, Emily and her friends had a fantastic time, would definitely recommend Creation Station parties as the kids loved it.” Steve D
