Canvas Birthday Party: A Parent’s Guide

What children will paint and do

Canvas Birthday Party combines an instructor-led painting workshop with mini spa treatments. The package lists an 8-by-10-inch canvas for each child, acrylic paints and brushes, and steps to create a finished picture. It is a two-hour experience for ages 6 to 13, with each child taking home their artwork.

The mini spa activities include mani-pedis, lip glitter, gentle eyeliner, face and hair glitter, and glitter tattoos. Let parents know that both painting and spa time are planned. The team arranges the activities within the booking, so confirm food and arrival arrangements rather than promising guests your own minute-by-minute programme.

Discuss the painting subject before booking

If your child has a particular picture or theme in mind, ask which subjects the workshop offers. Do not assume a character portrait or a custom design can replace the planned project. Send any idea clearly to the team and wait for their answer before putting it on invitations or buying matching supplies.

Children can have different levels of experience with painting. Ask how the workshop will suit your age group and whether anything should be discussed for a guest who may need support. The package supplies the listed painting materials, so you do not need to bring extra canvases or paints unless specifically requested.

Prepare clothing and guest information

Ask Hily’s what children should wear and whether any protective arrangements are supplied for painting. Pass on that guidance before the party rather than assuming paint will wash out of every fabric. Confirm footwear and belongings arrangements too, especially if families plan to arrive in party outfits.

Follow the waiver instructions and discuss relevant sensitivities for both the art materials and mini spa activities. Tell the team about any requested adjustment in advance. If a guest prefers not to take part in a treatment or the painting activity, ask how participation can work within the scheduled party.

Check prices, food and the guest list

Use the expected number of participating children to check the group tier, additional-child charge and HST on the current package page. The listed additional-child pricing covers parties of eleven to twenty-four children. Ask about adults separately and confirm headcount changes before the day so supplies can be planned.

Parents arrange food and cake. Digital invitations, tableware, water, juice and food and cake time are listed in the package details. Confirm serving and delivery arrangements with the team. Hair styling, face painting and themed loot bags are optional paid extras, not part of the painting workshop by default.

Plan how the canvases will go home

Ask the team how the paintings are handled after the workshop and how they should be carried home. Drying and packing depend on the project, so do not promise that canvases can be stacked or put inside a bag immediately. Pass the provider’s actual instructions on to parents at collection.

The painting can be the main take-home item, making another favour bag optional. Confirm arrival and pickup times and wait for a pending booking to be confirmed before sending final invitations. Use the customer dashboard or contact Hily’s about changes. The Canvas Birthday Party page below has the current inclusions and booking options.
