August 11, 2026A Huge Hit!
Grandma Bingo was a wonderful communicator, arrived early for our event, and the kids loved her balloons. I would highly recommend her for a family reunion, festival, or birthday party!

July 19, 2026Fantastic Balloon Twister
She was kind and cute, organized and very skilled with the balloons. We hired her for a large festival and her little customers were constant. I found her to be an absolute pleasure to work with. Highly recommend. Thank you so much for everything.

July 24, 2026Gramma Bingo is the Best!
I recently saw Bingo at the July 4th picnic in Oak Creek, but she's been doing my kids' birthday parties for YEARS! Always professional, always so fun! I've seen her in clown makeup and out, magic shows, balloons - all of her talents. The glitter tattoos are a fun new edition. All the kids LOVE Gramma Bingo!
