Crafty Monkey Party Area
Our designated party area can accommodate up to 12 children, 14 if they are small. If there's more children, we can seat some in our studio area. For much larger parties, enquire about booking the whole studio. Due to limited space the number of parents/helpers who can stay during the party are limited to 2 people.
Do You Offer Party Food? 🎂
We no longer offer a party food option or allow you to bring food to the party but you can bring a birthday cake or cupcakes. If you are bringing a cake you will also need to bring napkins to wrap the cake in for the children to take home.
Can You Hold The Party At My House Or a Different Venue?
Yes, depending on where you're located and how many children are attending we may be able to bring the party to a venue of your choice subject to an attendance fee. Email us with details to enquire. Another option is our Take Out Home Party Kits where you can host the party - If you choose to do pottery painting you would need to drop the painted pottery back to us to be glazed and fired.
Is There a Minimum Group Size For a Children's party? 🎉
The minimum group size for our party packages below is 8. If you want a smaller affair to celebrate a child's birthday you can book a pottery painting or build a bear session in our studio.
✨ Spaces are limited, so have a look at the child's birthday party options below and book early to avoid disappointment! 🎉.
👩🎨Pottery Painting Birthday Party For Kids 🎨
Let the kids get creative with our Pottery Painting Parties, where each child can choose a piece of pottery to paint from our popular Party Animal range or they can opt to paint a mug.
Kids love the thrill of painting pottery and taking home a unique piece of art they hand painted. Pottery painting is also great for developing creativity and fine motor skills while having loads of fun with friends. It's also great for parents as it's a stress free, calming activity where the children get engrossed in getting their art on! 💖
