Brilliant show and unique memories
My boy wanted a jungle themed party with an entertainer, and we chanced in this via "Addtoevent". The presenter turned up right on time with ten animals, set up and gave an excellent performance, holding the attention of 30+ seven year olds for a full hour, no easy task. Communication while making the booking was clear, and they were flexible and accommodating. A really enjoyable experience all round, with Stanley the meercat running across the children being a particular highlight.

Brilliant 3 year olds party!
We absolutely adored having Living Things round to our home for our 3 year olds birthday party - they were so accommodating and swapped out the tarantula and cockroach for a chinchilla and ferret! The children were gobsmacked and loved learning about all the facts - Amye was brilliant! Thank you so so much. Highly highly recommend - such a special memory!

Hi Becky,
Thank you for your wonderful review about our amazing presenter Amye.
Reviews like this really do mean so much to all of us and we are so pleased to hear the children loved learning about and meeting our animals
Thank you again for booking with Living Things 5 Star Review
A wonderful addition to our event
We ran a school “animal encounter” event with four different providers. Living Things were amazing from beginning to end. The content of the show was fantastic (a meerkat!!!), the delivery was beautifully pitched to primary school children, and our contact was professional and friendly. All in all, excellent value and a memorable event for everyone.

Thank you so much for your kind words!
We’re so thrilled that everyone enjoyed the animal encounter, and yes, the meerkat does have a way of stealing the spotlight every time! It’s great to hear that the session hit the right note for the children and made the day special.
We really appreciate you having us and would love to come back and do it all over again anytime!
Best Wishes,
Dan

Fantastic show
My 7 year old absolutely loved the animals. The animals were evenly and fairly shared out with interaction. The birthday girl got a little more one to one which I thought was lovely. And the animals are very well cared for and appeared to like the crowd of children. I recommend a smaller group of children to get the best out of the show! Which we did :)
