How a visit works

Questions parents ask

Still wondering? Call (866) 306-1384 and talk to a person.

How long should the character visit last?

Choose a manageable visit window that fits the child's attention and the party schedule. Confirm the actual program length with our team.

Can guests participate without taking turns?

Yes. Consider a simple group wave, movement game or call-and-response, with watching as an equally welcome choice.

What details should I send?

Tell us the date, location, child's age, guest count and requested theme. Confirm venue permission first, then ask us about program details, cost and availability.

Character parties in Herbert

In Herbert, begin with the child's comfort and let the visit build from there. A character can offer a friendly greeting, pause for a photo if the child wants one, then invite guests into a low-pressure activity. Keep the schedule flexible and decide who will help gather children when it is time. Our team can discuss a requested theme, but program details, costs and availability need confirmation. State-level planning guidance does not verify local facilities or policies.

Before you pick the spot in Herbert

Useful rules and places to check, each with its official source.

  1. Start with the state picnic directory

    Illinois DNR provides a directory of state park picnic locations. Use it to identify the exact state-managed property, then check its shelter booking process, facilities and access with the operator. A picnic listing is not a reservation or approval for hired entertainment, and it does not establish rules for municipal parks.

    Official source (opens in a new tab)
  2. Choose a real indoor backup

    For any outdoor gathering, arrange an accessible indoor backup before the party. National Weather Service guidance identifies buildings with wiring and plumbing as stronger protection; an open picnic shelter is not a lightning backup. This is national planning guidance, not a local venue rule.

    Official source (opens in a new tab)

Sources checked 2026-10-04. Check the current venue rules before you plan. Venue guidance does not mean a venue has approved character visits.
