I worried so much about the party thinking I won't be able to prepare enough, if you are thinking about hiring this guy, you won't regret it. It turned out to be really fun party for people and I love how he was nice and professional even though he had right to be upset that we were late for the party. I would highly recommend!!! I would call him again for next one! Thank you, David!

We can't say enough about Dynamic Dave! He was funny, enthusiastic, and very personable. The kids (and adults) had an amazing time. He was a trooper when some of the kids got a little unruly and handled it like a champ. He showed up early to set up and was kind enough to wait for the kids to finish eating before he started the show. He made sure to make the birthday boys feel special and called on them to participate. We are so pleased when Dave and would recommend him to anyone!

We had the best time at my kids Halloween party! He managed to have all 40 kids entertained and engaged. The parents thanked me a million times for having him because they were also able to get a break and enjoy appetizers, drinks, etc. This is not the first time we have had him at our family events and parties. He is always consistent and has new tricks every time. We had kids from 1-9 and they all loved it. He's very communicative and updates me with timing and his plan for the day. We are so grateful for having him at our events and look forward to many more with him! Thank you! Oh he even

The best entertainer I've had. He was very interactive with the kids and presented material they could easily understand and enjoy. He was very patient as there were about 30 children between 2-10 years old that were full of energy. He arrived on time and kept in touch with me if he had any questions or concerns. I would not hesitate to invite him to my next kids birthdays party or anybody else's.

Wow!! Dave is a absolutely amazing and gave my son the BEST birthday party he's ever had. We are a military family and last year didn't work out so well living in MS but since we've moved here to CA- the turnout was overwhelming!
Dave included my son is so many activities and some of the parents were involved too- it was an absolute blast!
I highly recommend him if you're looking for a great time.

This was the third year in a row we've had Dave perform at our daughter's birthday party! He's THAT good. He keeps the kids' attention so the parents can sit back and relax. The show is equally amusing for kids as it is for grownups. Your kids will be smiling ear to ear! He's got kids of his own, and it shows! He really knows what he's doing. He offers games, including his parachute, a bubble show, balloon animals, face paint- the man does it all. I love that he has a speaker and microphone so everyone can hear. He plays "Happy Birthday" when it's time

The best birthday ever! my son was super excited and had a lot of fun! I had 30 kids in the party and Dave managed them all, it's hard work !
He was on time, setting up and very accommodating, he even stayed longer for the cake and piñata
it helped a lot to get the kids attention.
Everyone had a laugh, including the parents.
best birthday memories, would totally recommend him!!!!!

We simply had to have Dave back again for my son's 5th party this year, and once again he blew everyone away! Dave got him up again screaming with delight and having a great time! 20+ under-6s are no easy feat to entertain, but wow, Dave has some great tricks up his sleeve!
Would recommend to all for children 1-10! Thank you Dave!

I've had so many friends text me telling me how much fun they and their kids had at my daughter's birthday party yesterday. Thank you Dave for making it a party to remember. If you are looking for party entertainment, he is the guy to call. We booked him for my daughter's 4th birthday and not only were the kids cracking up the entire time but the adults too. Fun for everyone!
