Booking Face Painting: What to Know

Face painting is one of the quieter successes at a kids' party: a child sits still for a few minutes, gets up as a tiger or a butterfly, and spends the rest of the afternoon showing it off. In Melbourne, Melbourne Fairy Parties and Little Party Faces each send painters to every region of the city, so where you hold the party doesn't narrow your options.

Melbourne Fairy Parties pairs its painting with fairy, princess, unicorn and superhero characters, and its stand-alone face painting can get through around 20 children in the first hour. Its packages start From $160. Little Party Faces starts From $200, can add balloon twisting to the painting, and its costumed performers also run games.

Age range is the clearest difference. Melbourne Fairy Parties pitches its parties at children aged four to eight, while Little Party Faces also takes on tweens up to twelve, which helps when older siblings or cousins will be waiting their turn.

Things worth settling with your face painter:

Queue size: the number of children, so you book enough painting time
Designs: a short menu matched to the party theme keeps the line moving
Skin: mention any child with sensitive skin before the day
Set-up: a shaded table and two chairs work better than a crowded kitchen bench

To round out the afternoon, browse balloon artists or the children's party planning page.

Mostly four-to-eight-year-olds: either business suits the group
Tweens in the mix: Little Party Faces lists the nine-to-twelve age band
Unicorn and fairy fans: Melbourne Fairy Parties builds its characters around them
Superhero party: both businesses list superhero themes

Ask a parent to manage the queue so the painter can keep working

Add balloon twisting with Little Party Faces for a take-home extra
