What’s it all about?

Here’s the story: For over 25 years (until the new management finally pulled the plug), I ran Kid’s Night at Papa Gino’s in Middleboro, a weekly craft, game and activity night for kids.  Over the years, many parents asked me if I would do birthday parties for their kids. With young children of my own, I had to decline. But now that my kids are older, I have the time to devote to doing it, and doing it right!
With a Kid’s Night regular attendance of anywhere from 15–25 kids, (as many as 50 or more on special nights) I gained a wealth of knowledge in working with children. For Birthdays by Mike, I take all that experience, along with years of my own kids’ parties and put it all together to make a truly unique and personal party for your child!

Why choose Birthdays by Mike?

Anyone can call the local clown or magician, pay a few hundred dollars for an hour or so of entertainment, and that may be just what you want. However, if you’re looking for a specific theme, something a little more personal, a little longer, or just something completely different, then Birthdays by Mike may be just the thing for your child’s next birthday party!

What I do:

I tailor a party to your child, based on some questions and the theme of your choice. I bring the "playlist", games, music, and anything I need to make the day special! I will arrive early to set up, and will need to  clean up and pack up after. I keep the kids busy for 2 hours or more, doing games and activities I have picked or designed specifically for your child's party. Some of these may be games like duck, duck goose, adapted to fit your theme, or they may be a totally new activity or game just for that theme.

What you do:

You give me a theme and some info to build my "playlist" (Things like favorite music, games and anything special about your child). You see to the usual birthday party basics, (cake, ice cream, invitations, etc.) as well as any extra decorations you may want (special balloons, party ware, etc.) You would also decide if you want to do presents, piƱata, etc. while I am there or on your own time. Other than that, while I’m there, you can just sit back and relax!
