PRICE FOR PARTY

​

Party Fee (2 hour party)

Up to 10 children: 400chf

Up to 12 children: 450chf

Up to 15 children: 500chf

NB. The number of children includes the birthday child.  Every child who is attending the party over 2 years and doing the project counts as a child at the party. 15 children is the maximum unless you book an extra Storycraft teacher with us in advance of the party. Extra time for a longer party must be booked in advance. Teacher charge per extra 30mins: 35chf

 

Parental Assistance

Please just note that if the children are under 4.5 years a parent/carer should stay with the child to support the teacher to do the craft with the children. If the children are over 4.5 years but under 7 then we will likely need some active help from at least one parent helper for the party, particularly if you have a larger party.For parties with more than 10 children parents are expected to actively help out at the party.

​

Party Bags (Optional)

At the end of the party children will receive a sweet e.g. lollipop. If you wish you can also order Party Bags from us at an additional charge on top of the Party Fee. Party Bag Option 1: 4chf per child (minimum 50chf), Party Bag Option 2: 7chf per child (minimum 50chf) See Party Bag Options here.

​

WHEN

Parties are held at the weekends from 10:00-12:00, 14:00-16:00, 14.30-16.30 or 15.00-17.00. Please view the Storycraft Studio Calendar first to check if the date you want is free and then contact us to arrange the date. 

​

CAKE 

We can provide you with a beautiful cake through our lovely cake lady Aline who makes delicious cakes and provides us with a 10% discount on her usual prices. Once the date is set you can contact her to discuss an individual themed cake. She will deliver your cake directly to the studio. Alternatively parents are welcome to bring their own cakes and /or food. There is no need to bring anything else unless you want to. You can bring your own plates/cups and decorations if you want to. If not we will set up the table in a similar style to the picture on the left/below. It will be covered in paper so the children can draw on the table. 

 

PAYMENT

No deposit is required, if the party is cancelled within two weeks of the date we would ask for a 25% cancellation towards my material costs/childcare. Once the craft is finalised we will send you a full info sheet with details about the room and format including payment details. 

 

WHAT DO I PUT ON MY INVITES?

 

The address is: Storycraft Studio, Bahnhofstrasse 3, Ruschlikon, 8803 

 

It can be slightly hard to find so please include the link for the directions www.storycraft.ch/directions IF USING GOOGLE MAPS PLEASE USE 'STORYCRAFT STUDIO', using the address only can send people to the wrong place. Please advise children to wear old clothes suitable for art as some art materials can stain. (If you are doing the giant messy art activity then a change of clothes is essential.)

​

CAN I DO A DIY CRAFT PARTY OR HIRE THE STUDIO?

​

Yes! The studio is available to hire for 90chf for a morning or afternoon to hold your party. You can use the kitchen and all the studio furniture, music player etc. You can bring your own art/craft activity or a Storycraft craft activity from the gallery can be prepared for you, including the prepped pieces and all the materials needed to complete the craft. An appropriate storybook to go with the craft will also be provided. Please note that parents are responsible for table set-up and tidy-up for a DIY craft party unless this is requested in advance (see prices below). Please do not use the word Storycraft on your invitations, unless you refer to a 'DIY Storycraft party' as a Storycraft teacher will not be present.
