Creative Tech Parties

Hands-on creative parties for curious kids who love to make, imagine and experiment.

From animation and storytelling to character robotics, circuits and invention, our parties combine creativity and technology to give children the freedom to explore ideas, make something unique and have fun together.

Choose Your Party

  • Animation Party

    Create characters, scenes and stories, then bring them to life through stop-motion animation. Children experiment with movement, materials and playful effects before sharing the films they’ve created together.

    Imagine. Animate. Tell Stories.

  • Robotics Party

    Design an imaginative character, then bring it to life through making, circuits and movement. Children experiment with how their character might move, light up or behave, combining storytelling, engineering and invention.

    Imagine. Build. Bring it to Life.

  • Invention Party

    Design, build and bring wild ideas to life using junk modelling, motors and LEDs. Children create their own imaginative inventions, then experiment with movement, light and simple circuits to make them work.

    Imagine. Build. Invent.

  • Design Your Own

    Have something different in mind? Tell me what your child loves and we can build a Creative Tech Party around their interests — from Toy Dissection & Coding to entirely new ideas, themes and playful experiments.

    Their interests. Their ideas. Their party.

  • “Emma did a party for our 9-year-old birthday. It was simply fantastic! Amazing set-up with great quality kit and expert tuition. The kids were totally absorbed and were so proud of their creations, taking away real skills in animation! Couldn’t recommend highly enough.”

    Emma Street, Parent

  • Emma planned such a wonderful party for our 9-year-old daughter. The children enjoyed themselves so much and loved receiving a video of their creations!

    Nicola Smith, Parent

  • Wow! What an amazing experience!! Emma was brilliant at explaining all the different activities and had so many resources to choose from! I’m not sure who had more fun, me or my daughter! Would definitely recommend 100%

    Lucie Moore, Parent

  • “Emma from Maker Parties hosted my daughter’s 7th birthday party and was brilliant from start to finish. She had 11 children completely captivated with creative activities, pizza making and storytelling. Her energy and enthusiasm were infectious, and she made the whole party fun, engaging and completely stress-free. I’d have her back in a heartbeat — highly recommend!”

    Jenny Reeves, Parent

  • Really well organised and fun for the children. They felt free to explore and be creative and managed to produced something which was really fun!

    Philip Butler, Parent

  • Emma is brilliant! Great set up, clear instructions and most importantly loads of fun. My 6 year old daughter had an amazing time animating funny faces and making a stop animation film. Would recommend.

Have another idea?

Tell me what your child loves and we’ll explore how to turn it into their own Creative Tech Party.

Creative Tech Parties aren’t just for children, I can also create playful tech experiences for grown-ups.

I’m always developing new activities, so parties can grow from different interests, materials and creative technologies.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Creative Tech Parties are about making, experimenting and imagining. Using everyday materials and playful technology, children create something unique, explore their own ideas and leave inspired to keep making long after the party ends.

  • Creative Tech Parties are designed for children aged 6–12, but activities can be adapted to suit different ages, abilities and groups.

  • Parties can accommodate up to 25 children, with ideal numbers depending on the party you choose For animation, children usually work in pairs or groups of three, while Robotics and Invention activities can be done individually.

  • Absolutely. Invention and Robotics Parties can be shaped around themes such as superheroes, characters or imaginative worlds. For Animation Parties, children can even bring along a favourite toy or character and use it to create and bring their own stories to life.

  • For Robotics and Invention Parties, each child creates their own piece to take home. For Animation Parties, children create short films together, which can be shared digitally after the party.

  • I’m based near Winchester and work across Hampshire, Surrey and Sussex. Travel within 25 miles is included; additional mileage charges apply beyond that.

  • For the party, you’ll need to arrange the venue, food and decorations. Ideally, we’ll have access to around 10 tables for making, but if tables aren’t available, we can adapt the activities to work on the floor.

  • I’m flexible, but 10:30am–12:30pm or 2:30pm–4:30pm usually work well around food and energy levels. After-school and early evening parties are also possible.

  • Whether you’re hosting at home or hiring a venue, please allow around 3–3.5 hours in total. This gives enough time for set-up, the party itself and packing everything away afterwards.

  • I’ll arrive before the party to prepare the equipment and materials. Please allow around 30 minutes for Robotics and Invention Parties and 45 minutes for Animation Parties.

  • Each party follows four simple stages: Explore, Make, Share and Take Home. We begin by exploring the materials, tools and possibilities before children develop their own ideas and start making. They’ll experiment, test and adapt their creations, then come together to share what they’ve made. In Robotics and Invention Parties, children take their creations home; Animation Party films are shared digitally after the party.

  • I recommend around 60 minutes of making, followed by a 30-minute food break, then using the remaining time to finish, share and celebrate what the children have created.

  • Creative Tech Parties start from £300. I’ll always confirm the full cost with you in advance, based on the number of children, the party you choose and the materials needed.
