Make it a happy afternoon
Start with your child, not a packed schedule
Let your child choose between two or three realistic ideas. Decorating cupcakes, a treasure hunt with challenges or a disco with friends: one main activity gives the afternoon a focus. Leave time for drinks, a snack and a quiet moment. Not every child wants to join in all the time or be the centre of attention.

A party at home or in a hall?
Home offers familiar surroundings and easy breaks. Check how many children can play and move comfortably; space occupied by a table or DJ equipment is not play space. A hall may suit a bigger group or provide more room to dance. Ask about access, toilets, cleaning and setup and packing time. Celebrating outdoors? Have a suitable indoor backup.
Preparation and the show
A simple preparation checklist
- Choose the activity together and make a guest list that suits the space.
- Budget for the activity, venue, food, drinks and any extras.
- Include the address, start and finish times and pickup arrangements on the invitation. Ask parents about allergies or other needs.
- Plan arrival, cake and presents around the main activity, leaving room for a break.
- Agree which adult will help and who will welcome the children and handle pickup.

What a party. Our son turned 7 with a kids disco. From the first song the children were jumping. The DJ knew exactly what they liked. Everything ran smoothly and even the parents joined the dances. Highly recommended!
The kids disco at our school in Amsterdam-Noord was a success. Everything ran smoothly. The DJ had the group and made it a real show.
We wanted something special for the year 8 goodbye. The disco was energetic, well organised and made to fit. Even the coolest boys joined in.

What is included in this kids disco?
A kids DJ, professional sound, disco lights, setup, pack-down and a show with music, games and interaction. You do not need to arrange a separate speaker set.

Is a kids disco fun for younger and older children?
Yes. The kids DJ tunes the show to the ages. Younger children get more playful games and clear dance moves. Older children get more challenges, battles and sing-along moments.
What should I prepare at home for a kids disco birthday party?
A safe spot for dancing, a normal power socket and enough room for the speaker and lights. Mention stairs, parking or a garden setup in the request so the set can match your home.
