All About Kids Party Arts & Crafts in Nairobi
At Kids Parties & Event Rentals, our arts & crafts service is about putting something to make into every child's hands — a canvas to paint, a batch of slime to stir, a bracelet to string, a cupcake to decorate. These are hands-on, make-and-take stations run by a friendly craft host, not a show to watch, so every guest goes home with something they created themselves.
Pick a single headline station like a canvas painting party or slime lab, or pair a calm seated craft with a louder activity for a full afternoon of creating. Stations are priced per child, typically KSh 3,000 to KSh 5,500, and most run about 45 minutes — so you can match the activity to the ages, the budget and the size of the guest list.
Whether it's a birthday in Karen, a school holiday craft club in Westlands, or a playdate in Lavington, we bring every material, apron, mat and clean-up cloth, run the station from start to finish, and tidy it all away. All you provide is a table or two and excited little artists — we handle the mess and the magic.

Craft Party Questions, Answered
Hands-On Kids Party Arts & Crafts in Nairobi
Looking for kids party arts & crafts in Nairobi that actually keep little ones busy? We run hands-on, make-and-take craft stations where every guest creates something of their own — a painted canvas, a tub of slime, a beaded bracelet, a decorated cookie — guided by a friendly craft host. It's making, not just watching, and each finished piece goes home as the party favour. Stations start at just KSh 3,000 per child, so there's an option for a small playdate and one for a full birthday crowd.
How much do arts and crafts cost for a kids party in Nairobi?
Craft stations are priced per child. A drop-in DIY craft corner starts from KSh 3,000, beadwork and jewellery making from KSh 3,500, a slime-making lab from KSh 4,000, a canvas painting party and an air-dry clay station from KSh 4,500, tie-dye and cookie decorating from KSh 5,000, and a hosted kids science experiments station from KSh 5,500. Each price covers all materials, a craft host and the take-home item. Transport is quoted separately by venue.
Painting, Slime & Science: the headline craft stations
Three stations do most of the heavy lifting. The canvas painting party gives each child a real mini canvas, apron and washable paints to take home a masterpiece. The slime-making lab lets kids mix, stretch and glitter-up their own borax-free slime to bottle and keep. And the kids science experiments station turns the party into a pop-up lab of erupting volcanoes, foaming reactions and dry-ice clouds — gasp-worthy fun with a sneaky bit of STEM. Each is run start-to-finish by a host.
Beadwork, Tie-Dye, Clay & Cookie Decorating
For a calmer table or a second station, our make-your-own crafts shine. Beadwork and jewellery making has kids stringing name bracelets and charm keyrings; the tie-dye station sends everyone home with a one-of-a-kind tote, T-shirt or bandana; the pottery and air-dry clay station shapes pinch-pots and clay animals with no kiln needed; and the cupcake and cookie decorating station is an edible craft kids frost, sprinkle and then eat. Pair a quiet craft with a lively one and kids can rotate.
Perfect for Birthdays, Holiday Clubs & Playdates
Our craft stations are built for kids birthday parties first, but they're just as good for school holiday craft clubs, playdates and family fun days. The self-serve DIY craft corner is ideal where guests arrive at different times, while a single hosted station makes a brilliant headline activity. Craft parties also pair beautifully as an add-on to a bouncing castle, face painting or picnic setup — just tell us what else you have planned.
Supplied & Hosted Across All Nairobi Areas
We bring craft stations to Karen, Runda, Westlands, Kilimani, Kileleshwa, Lavington, Langata, Muthaiga, Gigiri, Kitisuru, South B, South C and the CBD. Our team supplies every material, apron, mat and clean-up cloth, runs the station from start to finish, and tidies it all away — so you never end up with a pile of glitter and paint. All you provide is a table or two, water for the paint and slime stations, and excited little artists. Transport is quoted by venue location, and we recommend booking at least 3 days ahead.
