What can you do at my special event?
When I'm doing only balloon twisting or face painting I add color to an already exciting event. In this case I am usually one of many attractions--I entertain the children while they are with me, then they run off with their balloon or face paint to enjoy the rest of the party.

For other large events, I can entertain small groups for a few minutes at a time moving through the crowd. This is called "Strolling Entertainment" in the clown biz. I perform pocket magic, tell silly jokes, and even do some funny songs. It's perfect to keep people (of all ages) smiling--but not so much as to distract from the main party or product.

What do you look like?
I have some older Pictures here, and newer ones scattered around the site.

Are your Face Paints Safe?

I use only Snazaroo Face paints. They are hypoallergenic and the company that makes them has a million dollar insurance policy in case of any harm that may be caused by the paints. These paints are high quality and dry quickly. They also come off easily with soap and water. I also find that diaper wipes work very well for removing the paint.

Will small children be scared of you?

The character of Penelope Foolish is specifically designed to be acceptable to the small children. I certainly can't guarantee that no child will be scared of me, but most children warm up to me very quickly, and I go out of my way to make sure everyone has a good time.

How do I pay?

I always take payment at the end of the party to make sure that you are completely satisfied. I can take checks and cash, but I do not accept credit cards. I also don't need a deposit.

What if I need to cancel?

Emergencies happen. Please call me as soon as possible so that I can use your time slot to book another party. If you call with less than one weeks notice then I charge a $50 cancellation fee.

What do I need to have for you?

At most a table and chairs. Call me for specifics for individual parties.
