Wow…there are no words for the amazing balloon sculpture Zappo made for my employee for her 40th, it was African themed with animals and the flag colours… stunning!

In the past Zappo has also made other balloon sculptures for my daughter which were fantastic, a unicorn, a horse, an elephant balloon cup….just to name a few…a true artist.

Also he generously gave his time and did two magic shows for our scout troop to help get them to Jamboree… such a great community act of kindness.

What a fantastic show for the Feilding Library today! It was funny, well planned and performed, and so interactive – there were balloon animals, ventriloquism, jokes and magic, something for everyone. It reminded me of a British Pantomine. l have never heard children laugh so hard and my little girl has been talking about it ever since she got home. Thank you for the great show, Zappo!

Zappo performed at my daughter’s sixth birthday party and made it a special day for all the kids attending. He had the children by turns entranced with his magic tricks and howling with laughter at his jokes. He made such an impression that after he left the kids were trying to do their own tricks for hours.On a professional level, Zappo was friendly, prompt and courteous, we’d highly recommend him for your child’s party.

You were wonderful Zappo. I hadn’t seen a show for a long time due to an exit from the Kindergarten scene. But our Junior School were in awe of you! I could see their brains ticking over trying to work out all of your secrets!! Personally, I was pleased to see your own progress and your new tricks. Thank you for coming to James Cook School in Marton. We will certainly have you back!

I cannot speak highly enough of Zappo and his shows, and its obvious that he puts a lot of time and effort in to his craft, and into providing the best show he can for those he entertains.

I have had the privilege of watching many of Zappos shows over the last few years and can vouch for their consist quality. Go ahead and book him. You truly will not be disappointed

Oh my, I don’t know where to start! This talented and amazing man can (and does) bring a smile to the face of everyone his show touches.

His love of magic, and his natural rapport with both the children and adults he entertains shines through in everything he does, and he has the rare quality of being able to appeal to children and adults alike.

Thank you again for coming in and providing us an amazing show and a great night for the Children,we look forward to seeing you again next year!

Thank you for much for a wonderful afternoon Saturday. This event was enjoyed by staff and service users. nga mihi

We love having Zappo visit us. It is an annual event added to our programme. It is educational and relevant to current theory and practice BUT mostly it is HILARIOUS. Our tamariki just about cry laughing. It has even got to the stage where parents come even if their child hasn’t.

Zappo, you were a tremendous hit at our school this week. The children were enthralled and mystified from the 5 year olds to the 13 year olds and not to forget the teachers and teacher aides. This was the first time we have had Zappo at our school and I was the only one who had seen him before but everyone is raving about how much they enjoyed the show. It certainly won’t be the last time we ask Zappo to entertain our children.

Just a note to say thank you so much for entertaining Thomas and his friends on Saturday. Everyone loved it! You are a born entertainer!!!

I just wanted to let you know what a great shown you provided yesterday. It is awesome for us to be able to provide these new experiences for the children at Maxwell & Districts Kindergarten. The big kids from Waitotara School really enjoyed the show as did all of the adults present. We will see you next year!

Zappo delivered an amazing performance for my two kids on the Wellington to picton ferry on 31 Dec 15. He was fantastic. You need to book him – if I lived in welly he would defo be at the top of my list for kids parties. Thank you Zappo – you made this ferry crossing a very pleasant experience. My kids were seriously disappointed not to see you again on the return crossing.

Thanks very much for another great birthday party magic show. The kids and adults both loved it. You have such a great way with kids. Hope you keep going for many years!

Thanks again for the tickets and what amazing seats they were! The show was fantastic and Alfie was so chuffed to be invited up on stage with you, he has been practising his magic tricks since and took his hat and wand into school to share for his ‘news’. He loved the experience. Watching your former helper up on stage with you it’s clear that you really do inspire and make a difference to those children you entertain and that you remember them too which makes your shows so delightful. As parents we appreciate what a fantastic and genuine role model you are Thank you for contributing to make Alfie feel so confident and outgoing. I hope you have a relaxing weekend planned!

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say an enormous THANK YOU for such a wonderful show that you put on for my son’s 5th birthday yesterday. The children had an absolute ball, and your magic show was just the icing on the cake! The children were so fully engaged in your show, and the laughter from them was magic.

Thank you once again, I would certainly have no hesitations to recommend you to other parents in the midst of organising parties, you finished off our birthday party in style and your show was one of the best moments of the special day!

Thank you so much for your amazing show on Saturday for Alex’s 5th birthday. The way that you drew the children out and made them all feel involved was amazing and incorporating Alex’s own magician costume into his tricks made his day. He came home telling me he really was magic – just like Zappo! The parents loved your tricks as much as the kids did and the room full of laughter was everything a birthday party should be. I know we will all remember Alex’s magician birthday as one of the best!

Just wanted to thank you for putting on an awesome show for our daughters 5th birthday and making it such a memorable occasion . It was great to hear so much laughter from the kids (and adults).

Thanks so much for coming to Korokoro School and sharing your magic with the juniors. It was great to see the students so engaged and their laughter was infectious. Your show fitted in so well with our topic this term ‘What is a performer?’ Thank you!

I just wanted to say thanks again for making Samantha’s party so wonderful. She commented to me last night when she was thinking about all the coins coming out her sleeves and the glass bubble “he really is magic you know mummy!

Thank you for giving Brynn such a marvellous birthday party. He has been practising his magic ever since seeing you and slept with the marble/bubble under his pillow last night. Absolutely perfect. He reckons he’s going to have Zappo for every birthday party!”

Thank you for making Tui’s birthday party extra special and really fun. We all enjoyed the show and meeting you. You are a wonderful person.

We just love to see the wonderment and awe on faces as Zappo works his magic on teachers, whanau and tamariki alike. There is laughter, giggles and permanent smiles as he engages us all with his relevant and topical performances.

One of the most inspiring things about Zappo is his ability to captivate his audience and involve them in his interactive style. We especially appreciate the effort he goes to in providing an experience that reflects the principles of Te Whariki, and his ease of use with Te Reo Maori. Zappo’s props are well thought out, his performance is polished and he really knows how to get his messages across… thanks Zappo!
