About

Do you want your child to hug you and say "Mom/Dad - that was the BEST party ever! Thank you SOOOO much! If you would like to hear those words from your child then you believe QUALITY AND EXPERIENCE MATTERS! And so do we! We are passionate about children's parties - and it shows in our attention to detail!

DFW Funny Business specializes in all types of children's entertainment. If you need a professional clown, balloon entertainer, balloon artist, face painter, costumed character, puppeteer, storyteller, children's magician, juggler, unicyclist or stilt walker - we HAVE over 200 entertainers and specialty acts at our disposal to choose from! Even petting zoos and pony rides!

We are a family owned company in business since 1984. DFW Funny Business specializes in making memories for children and families in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. A few of our entertainers will travel outside the DFW area so just ask! Our customers are a list of "who's who" in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area - from sports figures and their children to companies such as the Dallas Cowboys and Texas Rangers - we are the entertainers to the stars in the DFW area!

Our clowns are the top clowns in the state of Texas. How can we say that? Because our clowns TEACH other clowns in Texas HOW to be a good clown. Our clowns are the instructors for area clown schools as well as the officers in local clown clubs. We take our funny SERIOUSLY! Just read our reviews at Gigmasters!

Many of the photos you see at the Gigmasters site are of the principal, founder and owner - Margaret Clauder, AKA Maggie the Magical Clown. Margaret is a consummate performer herself with over 25 years experience as a children's entertainer. She is a member (and former officer) of 2 area clown clubs, a magic club, a balloon artist club, a face painters guild, a storytellers guild, and a puppetry guild. Now you know how she spends her week nights! Through the club meetings as well as her thousands of local performances throughout the years she meets the talent of DFW Funny Business. If they are good they get a chance to audition for the company. If they are bad then they don't get the opportunity. Once they audition they will typically attend events with our more experienced entertainers for 6 months until they pass a probationary period. If they are on our website then they have been with our company over 5 years and are considered one of our leading entertainers.

When you hire one of our entertainers, you hire a professional that has been carefully screened. They are entering your home or business and interacting with your family, friends or clients - here, we take fun seriously. We perform criminal background checks and check their references. We require them to carry entertainer liability insurance. We have seen them perform not only in their audition but at live events, so we know their act and what we are talking about when we suggest an entertainer for your party.

We require them to be on time, courteous, and above all - GREAT WITH CHILDREN AND ENTERTAINING CHILDREN. This is not an easy task as kids can be brutally honest. If kids don't like you, they let you know it. If they love you, they let you know that, too.

We love children and entertaining them. Making wonderful, lasting childhood memories is our goal, one that we strive to live up to each and every day. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to make some memories for you!

*"My own children ages 23 and 28 do not remember any birthday cakes, any presents, any decorations, any fancy plates or napkins from their parties. They can't even recall who came to specific parties. They DO however remember EACH and EVERY live entertainer from the time they were 3 years old!"

Live entertainment makes a memory. Let us do that for your family!
