Her programs include a mix of activities, such as comedy magic, balloon routines, face painting, silly dances, parachute fun, storytelling and puppetry. Programs are customized to suit your needs, time frame, number of children and age group. Most shows run an hour to 75 minutes, but you could book longer or shorter programs to fit your schedule. * Mother Goof the Storyteller: She makes story time come alive with story board, creative dramatics, puppets, masks, and other props. She enchants young audiences at schools, libraries, birthday parties and summer camps with a series of hysterically funny, interactive and energetic tales. * Safety Show: Tickles teaches little children about keeping safe outdoors, i.e. wearing helmets, approaching dogs, crossing the street, swimming and playing in the sun safely are some of the topics. With audience participation and magic, Tickles would educate, while keeping them laughing. * Clown-Phobia! (a.k.a. Build-a-Clown): This is a unique show intended to eliminate the fear of clowns in little children by demonstrating the brilliant transformation from "regular person" to clown, followed by a magical performance. This service is for schools, camps, and birthday parties. * Halloween Witch: Wild and wonderful Wacky Witch might not have the quickest broom in the closet, but she'll have your monsters in stitches with monstrous magic, fantastic face painting, funny fortune telling, and scarcely scary stories. * Tickles the Elf Holiday Show: Tickles the Elf is one of Santa's helpers. She spends most of her time in Santa's workshop, but today, Santa sends her to entertain the children while they wait for the big day. We think Santa only wants to get her out of his way for a little while, but if you want to laugh, Tickles the Elf has just the right magic for everyone, including limbo under a giant candy cane, giving Rudolf flying lessons, assisting with silly holiday magic, and don't forget, the face painting! * Hanukkah or Purim Princess: Oy Vey! Princess Meshugana comes with her wacky version of the holiday magic, holiday stories, silly and a full show to celebrate the occasion. This service is for Jewish day schools, Purim carnivals, Hebrew schools, and private parties.

Tickles the Clown performed at an event for me, and I could not have made a better choice. Not only did she hold the kids' attention and got them participating, but she had both the kids and the adults laughing out loud. I really think I had just as much fun as the little ones did. This clown has the energy of 3 clowns in one, and she's just adorable. Her facepainting was excellent, probably the best I've seen, and she even uses her facepainting time as an opportunity to entertain. Will definitely have Tickles back next year!

I am a "Tickles" lover from way back. She has been giving shows for many years to our Montessori Preschool. Her playful humor has made the children laugh. She also engages them without being condescending. Even the little guys who have at first been fearful are won over by her enthusiasm.

I first met Rachelle at School for an Assembly. The Kids loved her!! So when it was time to set up something for my girls birthday, I immediately thought of her. The party was a GREAT success. Parents and Children loved the story telling and everybody LOVED the "tattoos". This year the girls have asked for her again!!!! I truly recommend Rachelle!

Tickles is a terrific entertainer. She not only holds the attention of the children, but also of the adults. Her comedy is original and she can think fast on her feet (children can ask some interesting questions). She comes prepared and polished. I recommend her to anyone planning a children's event - not just for birthdays. Her rates are really reasonable!
