THE HAPPY DAY PLAY DIFFERENCE
Why Families Choose Us for Their Child's Big Day
Happy Day Play is NYC's only certified family life education based party entertainment company. That phrase matters because it shapes everything we do, from the songs we sing to the way we pace each activity around your child's developmental moment and the importance in celebrating your family’s special milestone.
Educator Led, Not Just Hired
Every party is led by Ms. Kaitlynn, a highly-rated professional party entertainer, trusted family life educator and childhood development expert — not a random character in a costume who simply shows up. She is proud and honored to personally design a customized party entertainment experience that celebrates your child while being surrounded by their most favorite people in their life!
Evidence Based and Age Appropriate
Activities, music, and pacing are designed around how babies, toddlers, and big kids actually engage. The result is a party where every child stays connected and no one feels overwhelmed. Plus, grown-ups always join in on the fun too!
Custom to Your Child
From your child's favorite songs to their party theme, we build the experience around the birthday child so they feel seen, celebrated, and absolutely magical on their day. No two parties are ever the same!
