Party Like a Pop Star
B Town Sound
919 Fraser Drive, Unit 10, Burlington
Have a young Swiftie? At Party Like a Pop Star, kids donโt just party to pop songsโthey become pop stars! This professional recording studio rolls out the red carpet (literally!) for a VIP experience. From glam makeup to recording a song or even making a music video, the kids are the stars of this show.
โTheyโre getting a behind-the-scenes experience of what itโs like to be a professional,โ says Robyn Pauhl, owner of Party Like a Pop Star. And the cool factor? Off the charts. Custom playlists, cocktail tables, and yes, your kid can sit on the same couch Shawn Mendes did when he recorded here. You can even go full rockstar and arrive in a limo. This is more than a partyโitโs an epic experience for kids who are ready to steal the spotlight!

The Learning Tree
1450 Headon road, Burlington
We all know teachers are the best organizers and at The Learning Tree, theyโre also the best party hosts! Their themed birthday parties are a hit, with adoption parties (where kids can adopt a toy puppy, unicorn or dino) being the crowd favourite. The Learning Tree can even customize themes to match your childโs unique taste. โWe had an โAdopt a Raccoonโ party as the birthday girl was obsessed with raccoons,โ says Jodi Bowman, owner of The Learning Tree in Burlington. Each party is led by an Ontario Certified Teacher. At just $199 for the first 10 children, itโs an affordable, stress-free way to celebrate.
4Cats Arts Studio
Oakville & Burlington locations

Are you worried your little artist might turn your living room into a paint- splattered masterpiece? 4Cats Splatter Painting Parties allow kids to fling, splash and drip paint โ without a single drop landing on your living room carpet! Each guest makes their own masterpiece, then helps create a larger canvas for the birthday star. Itโs fun, itโs messy, and you donโt have to clean up a thing!
Yogatastic 4 Kids
3061 Walkers Line, Burlington
Take your childโs party to new heights at Yogatastic 4 Kids. Kids will fly, float and flip through suspension yoga poses followed by a mindfulness craft and, of course, cake. Want even more excitement? Go glow-in-the-dark under the studioโs neon lights. Kids even get to graffiti the studioโs mirrors, creating a one-of-a-kind glowing masterpiece. Itโs the perfect combination of mindfulness, creativity and celebration!
Whether youโre hosting at home or want to add some extra fun to a venue, there are plenty of unique entertainment options to make your childโs party one to remember.
Bubble Shows
Laura Martin, owner of Beebop the Clown & Friends, calls her bubble shows a fresh alternative to traditional magic shows. The show is filled with science-based bubble tricksโfrom a bubble tornado to a bubble cube! For the grand finale, the birthday child gets wrapped inside a giant bubble. โItโs a really great photo opportunity,โ says Martin. Bubble shows do need to be done indoors although Martin also offers outdoor bubble play parties for backyard events.
Balloon Twisting

Balloon animals have come a long way! Todayโs balloon creations are wearable, interactive, and larger-than- life. โYou can have all the balloons on a headband or you put it around their stomach and theyโre running around riding a balloon dinosaur or a unicorn or theyโre wearing butterfly wing balloons,โ says Martin.
Character Appearances
Whether itโs Frozenโs Elsa or Spiderman swinging in for some superhero fun, character appearances add excitement and engagement, creating unforgettable memories and cherished photo moments. With so many creative and engaging options, birthday parties today aremore than just cake and candlesโtheyโre experiences to remember.
