Merry-go-Round
'My Parties'

It's not easy to sit and watch when you are only little and VERY excited!

All Merry-go-Round's "My Parties" are highly interactive with a fun mixture of storytelling, music, drama and make-believe.
 
Every party is designed and delivered by myself and personalised to include your child's favourite stories, songs and activities for a very special party. 

You can choose from a variety of interactive storytelling options suitable for spaces big or small.

I also have a 'My Birthday Online' option which is a fun and engaging way to share stories at home. 


If you are looking for something a little more 'grown-up', I also have a wide range of stories suitable for older children.
These can be told around the campfire, at a spooky event, or just telling your child's favourite stories at home. Story Parties can also include crafts like simple puppet and mask making. Please get in touch for more info.  


Can’t see a theme that works for you?

Don’t worry if your child has an unusual request, I am always happy to write a story to suit your day.
