We had a great fun with Dan’s magic show for kids 2-10 years old. It was amazing to see how kids were interacting with the Wizard, laughing, performing tasks and answering questions - would definitely book the show again!

Dan with Party Animals of Texas was AMAZING!! Our three yr old has become obsessed with all things magic and their show was the best gift for her. Dan was hilarious for the whole family and we really appreciated all the detail and care that was put into his show. You truly could not ask for a better magician!

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We call and visit with them, get important information (is Location, Party person's name...). We will then call them 2 days before the event to get a Credit card # from them. This goes in our safe until the day after the event. The charge is run then.
We will also text the client with our cell # for was contact should questions arise. Our purpose is to make sure that the event is as carefree as possible.
What types of customers have you worked with?
We currently work with the Houston Rockets, Astros and Dynamo. We have over 20 different Libraries in the Harris, Fortbend and Galveston counties, along with most of the Major Daycares systems in town. We do holidays , i.e. Easter Bunnies and Santa to many Apartment complexes. But by far our best customers are our Family Birthday parties and other Celebrations. We enjoy bring fun and laughter to special family events
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Find the person that has a Heart for Fun. If you get the feeling that this is "just a job" for whomever you talk to, MOVE ON! Check out their Profile and read the reviews! They are unfiltered and cannot be reordered so the top reviews are for recent events. Find out what others thought of their work. If the client took the time to leave a review, it was either really good or really bad!
