press release

• Balloon Sulpting -.Zimbo's will dazzle your kids with twisty balloons your kids have never seen before. All kids at the party will get a balloon so long as time permits. Zimbo can make about 20 balloons per 25min and only uses the highest quality qualitex balloons.
• Magic Show - Zimbo's magic show for kids age 4-12. This 30min show is targeted for the party age group and is made up of mostly comedy magic. For the older kids Zimbo will do some more sophisticated tricks and for the very young its all about bright colours and interaction
• Theatrical Games - Zimbo loves to act, and kids love to do whatever Zimbo does. This is a great little game I play at the end of the 1hr shows which involves masks and some very strange acting from the kids. It is a real laugh for the parents and a ball for the kids.
• Face Painting - Spiderman, Barbie, Ben10 and more, Zimbo can paint almost everything. From full faces to tattoo's and cheek designs. This activity is not quick as every face is a masterpiece so I can paint about 15 faces per hour.
• Giant Bubbles - this has become a hit amongst the kids and is especially good for the young ages. Zimbo's bubbles are huge and so much fun to play with. I will create these amazing bubbles... the hardest part is keeping the kids from popping them... parents please help with croud control.

The Clown

Ever wondered why all clowns seem to look the same... or very different? Zimbo takes you through the various clown characters and will teach you Clown 101. Dazzle the next clown you see by telling them exactly what type of clown they are. (Just in case they did not know!)

Here are the main types of clowns:
The Whitefaced Clown
The Auguste Clown
The Hobo/Tramp Clown

I am very glad to announce that I (Zimbo) will be away for a much deserved holiday in January 2009. As mentioned before, I only work on weekends, but this will also be changing until the 4th January 2008. (Yes Zimbo can work weekdays up until the 4th). Just so everyone understands my working schedule for the Christmas Season, I have posted it below.

Zimbo will not be available for the following Days:

• 22-26th December 2008 (Christmas Break)
• 5-14th January 2009 (Zimbo will be lying on a sunny beach in St. Lucia)
• 14-21st January 2009 (Zimbo will be attending his brother’s wedding in Cape Town – He is a clown without makeup)
  

After my nice long holiday I will be available to work from the Saturday the 24th January 2009 as per my regular schedule on a weekend’s only basis. Also don't forget that starting 2009 I will be performing the Giant Bubble Shows.

Zimbo Adds Giant Bubbles to His Clown Routine

Clowning Around is delighted to announce an addition to Zimbo the Clowns' already fantastic performance. As of February 2009, I will be introducing giant bubbles into my clown routine as an additional option. When I say giant I mean HUGE. I have finally concocted the right bubble solution to create bubbles large enough to contain your child, that’s right! Your children can be completely surrounded by a bubble in his/her own bubble world. The coolest part… if your children blow while in the bubble, they can create their own stream of bubbles from within the bubble they are standing in.


How does Zimbo do this?
I have created an amazing formula which will only be fully complete by the end of January 2009. With a few very hard to find secret ingredients I will perform a bubble routine for your party that will dazzle all.


How much will it cost?
I have tried to make it as cheap as possible but due to the ingredients not being found locally, I need to cover costs. The show will be included into Zimbo’s one hour routine at an additional R300 per party.


What is included in the show?

• Every child will get a chance to stand inside a giant bubble.
• Zimbo will create some awesome bubbles up to 2 meters in diameter.
• The children can have fun making their own bubbles using many different types of bubble making gadgets.

Does anyone else do this?
As far as I know, Zimbo will be the only bubble performing clown in Johannesburg. :)

Kidney Beanz Trust Spinathon 2008

What a fantastic day it was, many volunteers sweating as they rode for hours and hours at Sandton Virgin Active for an excellent cause. The Kidney Beanz Spinathon was wonderfully organised by Annamarie Wagner, a trust member of The Kidney Beans Trust in a joint initiative with The Virgin Active Group and Morningside Clinic.

The Spinathon was organized for one sole purpose, to raise awareness and funding for kids with severe kidney disease. What amazing kids these were, some of them were awaiting transplants and others had already had their operations and told of their wonderful success stories. The kids showed their appreciation to the spinners by spraying them with water and found it hilarious to spray Zimbo too.

I had so much fun at this charity event and I have agreed to fully support the kids at The Kidney Beanz Trust by dedicating my time to visiting these kids at Morningside Clinic on a regular basis.

You can make a donation to this amazing charity or you can offer your time and support too by filling out a simple contact form. Make a difference today and you will realize that these kids are well worth the love.
