TUESDAY TRIVIA Did you know that this is the only princess to have brothers? All of our other princesses are either only children or have sisters for siblings! How many does she have? Can you name them all?

"And as the years go by Our friendship will never die You're gonna see, it's our destiny You've got a friend in me."... Making new friends is one of our favourite things about what we do!

These are characters that you won't find with anyone else around us! :o Characters such as our Magical Nanny, Grecian Goddess and Fairy Godmother get the same love and attention as all of our popular princess and hero characters. We can't wait to bring them to our outdoor events in the future! <3... Who would you want to meet first?!

MEET THE MAGIC MAKERS This next cast member is someone that you've likely all become familiar with over the last little while. From wrangling princesses to donning her own crowns, Shelby is always one of the first to jump in with "what do you need?" She always has our back and we can't thank her enough for her constant support, enthusiasm and for letting Alexandra bug her with ideas on a weekly basis! <3 Shelby ... Growing up, Shelby was always a fan of fairy tales, whether they involved strong-willed princesses, mysterious magic, or extraordinary heroes. Naturally, her favourite characters were Disney’s Mulan and Megara, but she always had a penchant for plucky rebels from a galaxy far, far away. Alongside her duties with The Glass Slipper Company, Shelby is a videographer, radio host, and voice over artist with a passion for storytelling. She’s also a receptacle for a wealth of Marvel and Star Wars trivia but be warned, once she gets going, it’s hard to get her to stop.
