About
Hi! My name is Mr. Simon, and I love to entertain children (1-5 years of age). I love playing for birthday parties, preschool appearances and other party/concert occasions. I sing and play guitar (and ukulele), doing classic songs children love to hear (such as Wheels On The Bus, Old MacDonald, If You’re Happy and You Know It), as well as more contemporary children’s songs (and my own original songs too, like my very popular “Train Song”). I engage children in a funny and entertaining way and get them involved in playing my instruments, egg shakers, scarves and even a children’s parachute (weather and space permitting - see pictures). I also bring my little fury friends along - Elmo, Bingo the dog, Telly the turtle, Cookie the kookaburra and the very popular Mr. Koala, who always steals the show! I’ll have your child and their friends play musical games, singing, jumping and dancing around while you get a chance to catch up with the other parents! :) But I actually find that the adults join in as I engage them throughout the performance as well! It’s a party you, your friends and the children will never forget!

Mister Simon is my child’s preschool music teacher & she absolutely adores him! For her third birthday, we booked Mister Simon for her party. A few easy texts with Mister Simon & we were good to go! At the event, which was in our tiny apartment, he played songs that we requested & entertained both children and parents alike! As a musician myself, I am a harsh critic, so listen - you can stop your searching — Mister Simon is the real deal! A great guitarist/ singer with a warm personality (and even a little stuffed koala friend)!

I had Mr. Simon at my daughters first birthday party and he was excellent! So professional and organized. Leading up to the party we filled out a form choosing all of the songs we wanted him to sing. He was in touch about timing and confirming all of the details prior to the big day. On the day of the party he was early and was very pleasant. He got along great with all of my guests. His performance was a hit! Adults and kids were really into it. He also made an effort to get the shy kids into it. Everyone had a wonderful time!!! We can't wait to have him again!!!

Mr Simon was a delight. He was exactly as he appeared on his Instagram! The children were enthralled for an hour with the Train song, the More we get together, the garden song, octonauts theme music (the last three were my daughter's requests!) He even learned Katy Perry for my 5 yo. Several moms remarked to me how great he was. He also was a champ performing outdoors in muggy 90 degree weather! Would highly recommend him.

It was my absolute pleasure to play for her and all her friends at her party! Thank you for such and honest, glowing review!!
