Absolutely wonderful! We had Butterfly Barbi at our 5-year-old son's birthday party with 18 energetic kids (ages 4–6, plus a few older siblings), and she was a total hit. The interactive show kept everyone engaged and laughing—kids and adults had a blast. The balloon creations were incredible too. Huge thanks to Barbi for making the day so special! More...

I’m still in awe! Barb & Ken’s endless energy managed to keep a group of 22 kids, aged 2-4, fully engaged and entertained for an entire hour. I honestly didn’t think it was possible! We’ll definitely be having you back next year! More...

"Wonderful kids' entertainment! The kids (and adults!) had so much fun, and it truly made the event unforgettable. With 18 children aged 4-7, everyone was engaged in non-stop activities the entire time. Face painting and balloon animals were big hits with all the kids. Thanks again for making it such a memorable day!" More...

She does it all!! We hired Butterfly Barbi for our child's 5th birthday party. Started with some amazing face painting, followed by a very high-energy interactive show with games, magic, music etc and finished with awesome balloons. Kids (aged 3-10) didn't want her to leave! Adults even had fun. Thanks Barb!😀 More...

We recently had the pleasure of having Butterfly Barbi perform at my daughter’s 4th birthday party, and she was absolutely phenomenal!
From the moment she arrived, she brought an incredible energy and warmth that captivated all the children.
Butterfly Barbi’s face painting was a huge hit, with each child getting a unique and beautiful design. Her musical talents shone through as she sang and played delightful tunes that had everyone dancing and singing along. The parachute games were a blast, and her magic tricks left the kids in awe and wonder.
What truly stood out was how comfortable and happy my daughter was throughout the entire event. Butterfly Barbi has a wonderful way with children, making them feel special and engaged. Every minute was filled with joy and laughter, and it was clear that she genuinely loves what she does.
I highly recommend Butterfly Barbi for any children’s event. She made my daughter’s birthday unforgettable, and we couldn’t be happier with her performance!

We recently hired Butterfly Barbie and Magic Ken for our daughter's 8th birthday party, and they exceeded all expectations.
With over 30 children and a dozen parents in attendance, they effortlessly captivated and entertained the crowd.
Butterfly Barbie kicked off the event with interactive dances and high-energy activities, which immediately engaged the kids. Magic Ken followed with a mesmerizing magic show that left everyone in awe. Afterward, they split duties: Barbie amazed the children with her face painting and balloon animal skills, while Ken gave the kids a chance to learn and perform some magic tricks themselves. Throughout the event, they provided a lively mix of kid-friendly background music that kept the atmosphere upbeat.
Their professionalism, creativity, and ability to connect with both kids and adults made them worth every penny. Both the children and parents were thrilled with the experience, and I highly recommend Butterfly Barbie and Magic Ken for any event looking to add some magic and fun.

It was a pleasure to have Butterfly Barbi be a featured guest at an outdoor library event. Kids and parents were delighted with both the show and with the lovely face-painting activity. Barbi was great to work with and very accommodating. The event was fun and lively and Barbi was a huge hit. With a public event like this, there was lots of coming and going and children of many different ages, but Barbi was organized and prepared and everything went very smoothly. Barbi provided a great experience for our community. More...

We had the pleasure of having Barbi at Aliyah’s birthday party on Saturday, and she did an outstanding job! Her face painting and balloon art were absolutely fantastic and brought so much joy to the day.
Barbi arrived early and went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. Her efforts truly made a difference, making my daughter’s day beautiful and memorable.
Our guests were full of compliments about her work, and I know Aliyah and her friends will cherish this birthday for a long time. Her professionalism, creativity, and kindness were evident throughout the event.
Aliyah has already requested Barbi for her next birthday party, saying, “Mommy, can we have the real Barbi at my party next year? I love her!” Thank you, Barbi, for making Aliyah’s birthday so special!

I’m giving Butterfly Barbie 10 stars! We had her come in for my daughter’s 6th Birthday on which she made he feel very special and kept all the children entertained with dance, music, face painting and custom balloons. She was accommodating since I had a last minute overnight change with the party’s venue. She was absolutely amazing all the children had fun, she came a little early to set up her face painting station and did beautiful face and arm art for the children. I even had to line up to get a pretty flower haha. She was friendly, energetic and kept everyone engaged including the other guests. A few of the guests was inquiring about her since she was honestly the best we had ever seen and I will definitely be having her come again ! More...

Laura Holmes
What a seamless, professional and engaging experience! Since initial contact, Butterfly Barbi was friendly and prompt in her communication as well as flexible with the plan/timing. She exceeded my expectations in delivering a high energy, fun and engaging show that not only captured the 3-7year olds but the adults as well. Service felt very personalized (not ‘ just another party’ for Butterfly Barbi) who asked (and learned) all party member’s names within minutes of arriving and referred to everyone by their names throughout. Great variety of activities with check ins re:timing/flexibility throughout event. Laughter from beginning to end. I couldn’t ask for more. I can confidently recommend Butterfly Barbi to anyone looking for a stress free, good old fashioned FUN time! Thank you Butterfly Barbi 😊 More...

Butterfly Barbi was an absolute hit at my 3 year olds birthday. She did face painting and balloons which all the kids (ages 8 - 2) really enjoyed.

We had the 80 minutes combo show followed by balloon twisting for our 6 year old boy birthday party. The show was awesome! !!! For both little ones and the adults! Kids were very engaged with Barbi for the interactive games and Ken shocked the audience (including the adults!) with jaw dropping magic! Both of them are super nice and easy to work with. They even incorporated pokemon into a magic trick and figure out a pokemon balloon animal for the party. We will definitely go back with them for our younger kid birthday party too! More...

Barbi did a GREAT job! Starting of her communication was great! She came as butterfly barbi but since it was a boys birthday she was able to make wardrobe changes to accommodate 🧡
My son turned 6 and he loved the entertainment so much. Face paint was vibrant and beautiful work. Ages of children ranged from 8 months- 14 and everyone was engaged in the hour long show. I couldn’t have ask for better.
Parents after were raving about the party and stated we set the bar high lol and they can’t have any party after ours… I would call that a success, Thanks so much Barbi!

We had Barbi come to our son's first birthday party. The kids ages ranged from 1 to 10. All of them LOVED the show, it was very interactive and inclusive of all ages, including the adults! A few of the kids told me that it was the best birthday party they've ever been to, and didn't want to leave. The balloon twisting was also such a hit, all the kids were so happy with their balloon creations! Barbi was so kind and easy to work with. It was my first time hiring an entertainer, and she really set the bar high and was a pleasure to work with. I HIGHLY recommend her, and look forward to having her for future parties! Thanks for making our party one to remember! More...

We had Butterfly Barbi help us celebrate our daughter's 6th birthday with her friends in JK and SK, a huge group of 26 kids!
Barb was AMAZING and my daughter and her classmates had such a fun time (and some good laughs for parents as well!). The kids were active with instruments, magic, limbo, parachute activities and balloon twisting!
The whole planning process was so easy, Barb was organized and efficient.
Thank you Butterfly Barbi for making this birthday party a success.
