– All the children invited will need to have access to either an iPad/tablet, computer or laptop with webcam w/ microphone and speakers
– All the children invited will need to have access to a medium to strong internet connection
*Top tip*
To get an even better experience, connect your laptop up to the TV via HDMI cable to display the picture onto the larger screen – just position the webcam so that we can still see you
Do I need a ZOOM account?

How many children can I invite to my Zoom Online Kids Party?
We recommend up to 10 children/screens involved (including the birthday child). Although siblings can join in too if they share the screen. With too many children/screens involved, it can get very noisy and then, hard to hear your entertainer and everyone else.
How will I ‘join’ the Zoom kids party on the day?
You will receive a meeting ID, and a password to join your Zoom party, on the day and time that you choose. You will also receive a link which you can use to join the meeting. You will need to pass these details onto the children invited too.
