Scott is a masterful communicator - in preparing for the event, in promptly replying, and in performance. Even as he sets up and takes down, he asks fun questions interacting with us. Scott also understands children. He put on a puppet show that had the 25+ kids on the edges of their seats, even reaching their arms out in gleeful protest of the folly or support of the good choices of Kabazoo the Camel ! One child had declared before the show she didn't like clowns, but there she sat in the front row laughing and responding to all Scott's prompts. Later, she told me "He's a nice clown." Boys & girls alike were engaged in the story and the narrative magic show that followed. Scott made balloons appear at the very end to segue into the final 30 minutes of making hats for the kids. Can we clone this clown, please !

Scott was great: Fun, funny, professional, great with the kids (even when they got overexcited and jumped around, he remained in control of his act), and most importantly, he was warm-hearted. My family has been going through some personal struggles and I didn't have a chance to book a proper birthday party for my 5 year old twins. I basically threw together an impromptu, multi family play date a few days before their birthday and booked Scott the morning of the party! Not saying this should be the norm for anyone, but Scott was gracious and totally accomodate. He arrived a couple of hours later and entertained the kids and adults alike. The ten children that were there had a great time, even the skeptical 8-10 year olds!! I would definitely book with QE again.
