What parents
actually ask
Written answers, not promises. If something here worries you, say so when you write — we plan around it.
My child is shy and will refuse to join in. Then what?
Nothing is compulsory and no host will single a child out. There is always a watching place beside an adult, and the second host quietly works the edges of the room with small props — a cup of foam, a balloon that sticks to the wall — for the children who are not ready yet. In practice most join by minute fifteen, and a few never do, which is fine. Tell us before the party and we start the show at the quiet end.
What is the deposit, and what happens if we cancel?
A 30% deposit holds the date; the rest is paid in cash or by transfer on the day. Cancel more than 72 hours before and the deposit is fully refunded. Inside 72 hours we move it to any other date within three months. If a child falls ill on the morning itself, we reschedule and keep the deposit on file — it happens often enough that we have stopped charging for it.
How much space do you actually need?
For the table shows, a cleared area of roughly 3 × 3 metres plus somewhere for the children to sit — a rug, cushions or chairs in a half circle. Bubble Hour needs the same again for the mat. The Lightning Room is the only programme with a hard requirement: a 2.7 m ceiling and no fire alarm directly overhead. Send us a photo of the room on WhatsApp and we will tell you honestly whether it fits.
Allergies — what are the children touching and eating?
All consumables are food-grade or cosmetic-grade: washing-up liquid, starch, citric acid, baking soda, food colouring, cosmetic glycerin. Nothing is peanut-based, and the ice cream can be made on a coconut base. Dry ice and liquid nitrogen are handled by the host only, never passed to a child, and both are used in ventilated rooms. List any allergies in the booking message and we will send you the exact ingredients in advance.
Can we do it in a cafe instead of at home?
Yes, and roughly half of our parties are. We work regularly with several cafes near the boulevard and in Old Batumi, and they know us. You book the table; we contact the manager ourselves about power sockets, ventilation and the size of the cleared area. Two restrictions: no open flame indoors, and the Lightning Room needs a separate room rather than a corner of the dining floor.
