Events & Parties

If you are looking for a charismatic, engaging party host for your preschoolers or elementary-aged kids, I’m your guy! I provide comprehensive entertainment packages for birthday parties, school and community events, and more. I combine music, comedy, trivia, and even a little bit of magic to cultivate a unique and unforgettable experience for kids of all ages. I’m happy to tailor the details to accommodate any theme(s) your child prefers for their event.

Philosophy

It’s pretty simple - we encourage kids to be kids! At Wonderstruck, our goal is to unleash the natural curiosity, creativity, kindness, and sense of adventure inherent in all children. When kids play, not only do they learn, they also build resilience, confidence, and a more secure sense of self. At Wonderstruck, we treat all kids with the respect they deserve, encouraging them to be their silly, quirky, authentic selves and find joy in the every day.

We intentionally keep our groups small (five children maximum for both camps and before/after school care) to ensure each child gets focused, individualized attention.

Most importantly, ALL children are welcome at Wonderstruck and we acknowledge and celebrate differences of race, gender, sexuality, ability, religion, and more. If there is anything in particular we can do to ensure your child feels comfortable and safe, please let us know.

ABOUT  LUKE

Hi there, I’m Luke! I live in beautiful North Bend, WA with my wife, Kelsey, and our four children: Henry (13), Tierney (12), Annie (9), Millie (7), and our dog, Murphy (3).

I have worked with kids in a variety of settings over the past 20 years, including as a mentor for middle and high school students, as a camp counselor, as a Snoqualmie Valley baseball and softball coach, as a community volunteer, and as a self-proclaimed Rad Recess celebrity. I also have experience fundraising for local youth organizations, including Friends of Youth and Athletes for Kids.

At Wonderstruck, I am passionate about promoting fun, teamwork, and creativity, and I believe kids are capable of so much when given the freedom to explore their sense of wonder.
