Children's workshops for birthdays, kindergartens and schools
A kids' birthday workshop is held at home, in a cafe, at kindergarten or in the host's studio: each guest decorates gingerbread or paints a tote bag, makes slime or a candle and takes it home. Pick a host by photos of kids' work and reviews, or describe the party in an order and wait for responses.
Children's workshop hosts
How much a kids' workshop costs
What affects the price
Per child or per group
The price is most often given per participant. A large group may need an assistant and more kits, so the total cost goes up.
What each child takes home
A child takes their piece home, so the blank sets the price: a gingerbread cookie, a plaster figurine, a tote bag or a T-shirt all cost differently.
Heating and setting time
For candles and soap the host brings a heater and containers, and the wax or soap base has to set, so these sessions run longer and usually cost more than painting.
Aprons, packaging and cleanup
Aprons, table covers and boxes for the finished pieces may be included in the price or charged separately, and so may cleanup after paint and glitter.
St. Nicholas Day and New Year
Before St. Nicholas Day, New Year and kindergarten graduations, dates are booked early, and prices can be higher than in an ordinary month.
Prices come from specialists' profiles on Nexperity and update automatically. You agree the final price with the specialist directly.

How to choose a workshop for a kids' party
- 1
Children's work, not samples
Ask for photos of pieces made by children the same age as your guests: the host's sample shows the idea, children's work shows what the guests will actually manage to make in one session.
- 2
Age-appropriate materials
Ask what the slime is made of, what they paint with and whether children will work with hot wax or soap base. For little ones there are no-heat options, such as rolled beeswax candles.
- 3
Edible pieces and allergies
If you will decorate gingerbread or cookies, find out what is in the dough and icing, and warn the host about guests' allergies in advance.
- 4
Will it dry before the party ends
Icing on gingerbread and paint on tote bags or plaster do not dry at once. Ask how children will carry their pieces home and whether a design on fabric needs to be set with an iron later.
- 5
What to prepare at the venue
Check how many tables, chairs and outlets the host needs, and whether the workshop can be held at a shared table in a cafe or outdoors.
What to put in the order
The occasion and date: a birthday, a kindergarten party, a school celebration or a family event
How many children, how old they are and whether adults will join in
What you want to make: slime, candles, soap or painting — or the host's choice
Where the session will be: an apartment, a cafe, a kindergarten, a classroom or a yard — and your district
How much time in the party program is set aside for the workshop
Payment per child or for the whole session, and whether aprons and packaging for the pieces are needed
Questions about Nexperity
How Nexperity works — separately for clients and for specialists
For clients
Nothing. Searching for specialists, sending requests, posting orders and receiving responses are free.
No. You agree the price and the payment method with the specialist and pay them directly. Nexperity does not take payments and is not a party to your deal.
A request goes to one specialist — from their profile. An order is posted for everyone: specialists send you responses, and you choose which one to accept.
How the specialist will do the task, a price — fixed, a range, hourly or “on request” — and, optionally, an estimated timeline.
30 days from publication: all that time it is visible in the feed and specialists can send responses. The exact end date and time are shown on the order in your account. From that moment the order is closed and a response can no longer be accepted. You can cancel it earlier, and if no specialist turned up, post a new one.
Yes: you can hide your name and photo in an order. The anonymity lasts until acceptance — the specialist whose response you accept sees your name and photo. The task description is public: anyone visiting the site can read it.
Only after acceptance — when you accept their response or they accept your request. And only the contacts you chose to show.
After acceptance you see the contacts the specialist chose to show, and they see the ones you chose. You can also message on Nexperity when the chat is on: on an order you decide that, on a direct request the specialist does.
Once the work is done, mark the order or the collaboration completed in your account — then you can say whether you recommend the specialist. A review can only be left for a collaboration that happened through Nexperity: one per specialist, which you can change or delete at any time.
For specialists
Nothing for now: this is the free period, and no subscription is needed yet. Nexperity takes no commission on deals — you settle with the client directly.
Sign up, fill in your specialist profile and add your services — each with a category, a description and a price. Once the profile is complete, it appears in search and on the category pages.
Two ways: clients send you requests from your profile, which you can accept or decline; and you see public orders in your categories in your account and can respond to them.
You describe how you will do the task and give a price and, optionally, a timeline. The client compares responses and accepts one.
Contacts set to “Public” are visible to everyone on your profile. A client sees contacts set to “After connection” once you accept their request or they accept your response. “Hidden” ones are not revealed in new connections: a contact already revealed to a client stays visible to them.
Each service has a fixed price, a range, an hourly rate or “on request”. Prices show on your profile and in search results, and you agree the final price with the client.
Through search and the category pages of your services. The order depends on your clients' reviews — how many of them recommend you — and in search also on how well your services match the query.
A photo, a description, your region and way of working — online or in person — your contacts and a portfolio: photos of your work, each with a short caption if you like.
A client leaves a review after completed work, and only for a collaboration through Nexperity: they say whether they recommend you and may add a few words. Each client counts once, however many times you work together.
