Planning a Kids Party in Baltimore: What to Know
Planning a children’s birthday party in Baltimore can feel overwhelming, but with the right plan, it becomes a joyful, memorable experience for the whole family. From choosing the right venue to booking entertainment your child truly loves, here’s everything Baltimore parents should know when planning a magical kids party.
Start With Your Guest List and Space
Before locking in details, decide how many children you’re inviting and where the party will take place. Baltimore families host celebrations in a variety of spaces, including homes, backyards, community centers, party venues, and local parks. There are no limitations on the number of kids per party, but we do recommend at minimum one character for every 12-15 kids to ensure that each child has one on one time with the performers.
If you’re hosting at home or outdoors, consider how much room kids will need for activities like dancing, games, or interactive entertainment. For indoor venues, always confirm space limitations and entertainment policies ahead of time.
Choose Entertainment That Matches Your Child’s Interests
Entertainment is often the heart of a kids party. In Baltimore, parents are moving away from passive activities and choosing interactive experiences that keep children engaged from start to finish.
Popular options include:
Princess parties with sing-alongs, storytelling, and royal coronation
K-Pop Demon Hunters inspired dance parties for high-energy fun
Unicorn-themed parties for children of all ages who love color and imagination
Wicked-inspired celebrations for kids who love theatrical flair based on the movie
Choosing entertainment your child genuinely loves creates excitement and helps the party flow naturally.
Pick a Kid-Friendly Baltimore Venue
Baltimore offers many family-friendly party locations. When selecting a venue, ask about:
Setup and cleanup time
Music and performance rules (especially glitter!)
Parking for guests
Space for performers and activities
Many families choose local community centers, recreation rooms, or private party spaces throughout Baltimore City, Towson, Catonsville, and surrounding areas.
Plan a Simple Party Timeline
A smooth timeline keeps kids happy and avoids overwhelm. Our professional entertainers will guide the flow, allowing parents to relax and enjoy the celebration. The structured entertainment will depend on the characters and package that you choose. A typical kids party works best with:
10 minutes for arrival, photos, and settling in
40 minutes of structured entertainment with the character
10 minutes for singing Happy Birthday, cake and family photos, goodbye hugs, etc.
Food, cake, and free play to follow after the character leaves
Don’t Forget the Little Details
Small touches make a big difference:
Themed decorations that match your party characters
A special moment for the birthday child
A space for photos and memories
Keeping things simple allows the magic to shine without stress. Our characters are totally mobile and will be moving around your party interacting with guests. It does help with structuring activities if there is a designated area for them to return to. For example, a chair placed near a photo backdrop where they can read for story time, sit for the face glitter, etc. They can leave all of their supplies there and many of your posed and candid photos will look well planned and put together in front of the backdrop.
Make It Magical Without the Stress
The best kids parties in Baltimore feel joyful, organized, and personal. Choosing trusted entertainment and planning ahead helps create a celebration your child will remember for years.
If you’re looking for princess parties, KPop celebrations, or themed kids entertainment in Baltimore, Glass Palace Parties would love to help bring your vision to life.
