Tiger and animal face paint ideas for kids
If you would rather book a painter: from 500,000₫ an hour.

Tiger and animal face paint ideas for kids work best when you match the design to how brave your child feels: a whole tiger face, just a nose and whiskers, or a small animal on the hand. The tiger, cat, mouse and elephant designs below each have a real photo in our photo gallery, so you can show your child what to expect before the party. We go through tigers, cats, a few other animals, and what to do if a full face feels like too much.
Tigers
A tiger is one of the easiest animals to ask for, because a tiger is easy for a child to recognise. In the gallery there is a boy with an orange tiger face, which is a bold, full face design. It suits a child who likes to be the centre of the party and does not mind sitting for a full face.
If your child loves tigers but is unsure about a whole face, do not drop the idea. Ask the artist whether a smaller tiger is possible, and see the section below on smaller options.

Cats and big cats
The gallery has several cat designs. One photo shows a girl with a white cat face and a pink bow. Another shows a child in profile with a kitten on the cheek. Put them side by side and you can see the two ends of the range: a cat that covers the face, and a kitten that stays on one cheek.
Cat designs suit a child who likes soft, friendly animals. A pink bow also makes a natural match for a pink dress. If your child prefers a leopard or another big cat, message us on Zalo and ask what can be painted.
Bears, rabbits and friends
The gallery has more animals than the usual favourites. One photo shows a girl with a red polka dot bow and a mouse nose. Another shows a woman with a grey elephant face, a reminder that adults enjoy animal designs too, and that an elephant is a fun alternative to a cat or tiger.
The gallery also has a boy with a white rabbit face paint and an orange smiling bear painted on an arm. Send us the photo you like and ask whether it is possible for your date.

If a full face is too much
Some children love animals and still do not want a full face. There are smaller ways to say yes:
- Just a nose and whiskers, like the mouse nose in the gallery.
- A small animal on one cheek, like the kitten.
- A small animal on the back of the hand.
Let your child decide, and do not push. A smaller design is also quicker, which helps when many children are waiting. Our estimate is that one artist paints roughly 10 to 15 faces an hour, depending on the design.

Asking for your child's favourite animal
Children can choose a design before the party. Ask "which animal do you want to be?", then show the gallery and save the photo they like. Send it when you book, along with the age of the child and the party theme, so the artist can suggest a size that fits. For more ideas, see our posts on face painting designs for boys and face painting designs for girls.
Prices are 500,000₫ for 1 hour and 900,000₫ for 2 hours, with longer bookings discussed case by case. A big party can have up to 5 artists. You provide 1 table and 2 chairs, plus a shaded spot if you are outdoors. If it rains, the painting moves indoors. You can read more about birthday party face painting and the pricing page. If a child has sensitive skin, tell us when you book; we cannot promise that every colour suits every child.
FAQ: animal face paint ideas
Which animal is the easiest to choose? Tigers and cats are easy for a child to recognise, so they are easy to ask for. The best choice is the animal your child loves, so let them pick.
What if my child only wants a small animal? Ask for a nose and whiskers, a small animal on the cheek, or a small animal on the hand. Tell the artist when you book.
Can adults get an animal design too? Yes. The gallery has a woman with a grey elephant face. Mention it when you book so the artist can plan the time.
