Kids paint parties
in Newcastle
A creative, social party where kids follow simple steps to create their own artwork — with plenty of room to add their own style along the way.
Great music, great vibes, and a canvas to take home.
WHAT HAPPENS ON THE DAY
Here's how your paint party flows
We arrive & set up (30 mins early)
Floor covers, easels, canvases, paints and brushes — all set up before your first guest arrives. You don't lift a finger.
Guests arrive & get settled
We welcome everyone, get them set up at their easel and run through how the session will work. Great music on from the start.
Guided painting begins
Step-by-step guidance from your Scriblz host — with freedom to add personal flair at every stage. No pressure, just fun.
Fun activity break
We pause for a game, dance break or quiz — whatever suits the age group. Keeps the energy up and the kids engaged.
Cake time & celebrations
We pause painting for cake, singing and birthday celebrations. We help facilitate so you can actually enjoy the moment.
Final touches & group photo
Everyone finishes their masterpiece, we do a group photo, and guests take their canvas home with pride.
We pack up & clean everything
Every last brush, cover and drop of paint. We leave your space exactly as we found it — or cleaner.
CHOOSE YOUR DESIGN

MORE THAN JUST FUN
How painting enriches your child
Every paint party does more than keep kids entertained. Here's what your child is building while they're having too much fun to notice:
Confidence & pride
Following steps to create something real builds genuine self-confidence that lasts well beyond the party.
Focus & patience
Following multi-step instructions in a fun environment builds concentration, resilience and the ability to see things through.
Fine motor skills
Brushwork, detail painting and colour mixing all develop essential hand and finger strength, coordination and control.
Creative expression
Art gives children a safe space to express themselves, make decisions, and develop their own visual style and voice.
PRICING
Clear, simple pricing
All prices include everything — materials, setup, guided activity, and clean-up. No hidden extras.
Additional Guests
Up to 25 guests total. $30 per additional child beyond your package.
