I hope these answer any questions you may have. Feel free to contact me if not. 🙂
If you have any questions, please contact Paul by emailing paul@magicpaul.co.uk.
What age groups do you cater for?
I provide tailored magic and entertainment for children aged 4 to 11, ensuring the content is age-appropriate and engaging for everyone.
How much space is needed for the performance?
For the show, as long as I can stand next to a small case and have a child next to me, I’m good to go. Of course, we’ll need room enough for the other guests to sit and watch. 🙂
As a maximum, I bring enough with me to fill a 400 seat theatre.
For the games, it’s mostly about dancing. Just allow enough space for your guests to swing their arms a little and it’ll be fine.Â
What happens if more children turn up than expected?
Don’t worry! I always bring extra supplies and can adjust the games so every child is included in the fun.
Are you insured and DBS checked?
Are you insured and DBS checked? Yes, I hold full public liability insurance and a current enhanced DBS certificate for your peace of mind.
Do you provide prizes and music?
Yes, I handle the music and none of the games have winners or losers so there is no need for prizes. You can focus on enjoying the day, I’ve got everything else covered.
How far in advance should I book?
Popular dates like weekends and holidays fill up quickly, so I recommend booking at least 4-6 weeks in advance.
How do you handle shy children?
I use a gentle, low-pressure approach to build rapport, often letting them watch from a distance until they feel comfortable joining in.
My games are created especially to encourage and support shy children as they join in, and to let high energy children show of without damaging the party.
What is the birthday child's role?
For the games, if you book the, all children are included in the fin equally. For the show, we start by having fun together and I include other volunteers from the birthday child’s friends, but as we continue, we realise the birthday child has magical powers which are bigger and greater than everyone else. In the end, the birthday child becomes the star of the show beating me in a special magic competition to be named “The Best Magician In The World!”. They even make a live bunny rabbit appear out of thin air!
Do you need help from parents?
I handle everything during the show, but having a parent nearby to help with any individual child’s needs is always appreciated.
Do you offer themed parties?
Yes, I can tailor the magic and games to suit your specific party theme, making it a truly unique experience.
Do you have options for older children?
Absolutely. I offer interactive magic workshops where older kids can learn the secrets behind the tricks and build their own performance skills.
Can you help with party planning?
I provide everything I can. Amazing digital invitations, party planning tools, videos and messages for the birthday child, and even bespoke games and fun pages made especially for your party.
