• Jim did a great job! I've been running a camp for quite some years and its always difficult to get entertainers that are able to entertain ALL the participants! He pleased everyone from the 6 year olds, the 13 year olds and even our counselors (15-25)! He was also very accommodating in running his game show without prizes or points (our camp doesn't keep score!). The game show was absolutely great. Old songs, new songs, all of it was so much fun. Everyone was on their feet and having a great time. I would definitely recommend James for your event. -- Samira G, Chicago, IL, 7/28/2009
• We had Jim come to our house for our 8 year old son's birthday party. He was outstanding! The kids and adults were amazed and had such a great time. Jim was professional, funny, and extremely talented. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for great entertainment for any event. We know our son will remember this birthday forever and his friends will be talking about it for a long time. Thank you Jim for making our son's birthday so fun and memorable! -- Peter R, Huntley, IL, 2/28/2009
• Jim performed for our Cub Scout Blue & Gold Banquet this past weekend. He entertained siblings as young as 2 to our oldest guest who was 90. He had a great show that kept everyone laughing and amazed. We would definitely look into hiring Jim again for another event. You won't be disappointed! -- Cheryl S, Glendale Heights, IL, 2/22/2009
• James Jensen put on a GREAT performance for our Christmas party. Everyone from the great-grandparents to the youngest children enjoyed the show and many commented that this was the best show we've ever had. It was also fun for two of the children to go on stage and help with the magic tricks. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a magician. -- Kathy L, Ashkum, IL, 12/2/2008
• I recently had a birthday party for my 8 year old son. 22 guests arrived (mostly boys) and James kept them entertained the entire time! Thank goodness! Every parent at the party (approx. 8) asked for his business card and commented how professional and creative he is. Don't take my word for it...on the way home I had a van full of children and they all agreed the party was GREAT and said everyone was going to write about the party during writers workshop the next day at school. It made it all worth it. Thank you James! -- Elizabeth J, Northbrook, IL, 10/9/2008
• Jim was willing to meet all requests that we had. He arrived in a timely manner and handled everything like a true professional. After my event I received several positive comments from my guests on Jim. Kids and parents had enjoyed his show saying his magic was fun to watch and that he made them all laugh. My event was for kids with cancer and these are the kids that Jim had to entertain. I think Jim too was enjoying himself and truely loving what he was doing. We had so many kids that Jim stayed a little over to see to it that everyone got a balloon animal or saw his tricks. I could not have asked for more from Jim. I highly recomend Jim for your next event. -- Brian M, Medinah, IL, 3/15/2008

Thanks Jim! -- Shelley R, Roselle, IL, 9/13/2008
• Jim did an excellent show for our 2-year-old's birthday party. He did a music/game show as well as balloon animals. All of our guests, both kids and adults, got involved and really enjoyed the show. The kids especially liked dancing, winning prizes and getting balloon animals. It was the perfect event for our party. I would definitely book Jim for another event and highly recommend him! -- Sarah G, Palatine, IL, 6/21/2008
• I was extremely impressed with Jim. He was professional. He was on time and was eager to meet our desires for the events. He went out of his way to make sure that we would be happy with the events. He enthralled our customers and employees. I will use Jim's services in the future and have already recommended his services to associates. -- Jan N, Oak Park, IL, 12/27/2006
• He kept the kids engaged the entire time. Very appropriate for a mixed crowd of ages (young and adult). Would definitely recommend him. -- Staci M, Carpentersville, IL, 12/9/2007
• The Balloon Twisters were great and the kids loved them. The strolling magician entertained the crowd as well. We had over 600 attendees at our holiday brunch and everyone commented on the entertainment. Jim was very accomodating to us especially with all of our last minute requests. We will absolutely use him again in the future! -- Lisa B, Rosemont, IL, 12/2/2007
