Playground Equipment for Party Centers
Playground Business - Equipment Design
Playground equipment for indoor fun centers, party centers and children’s entertainment centers have been around since the early 1980’s, attracting families with young children for safe, open play fun and indoor parties. One of the challenges for new amusement entrepreneurs looking to start a indoor play ground business – is creating the best indoor playground designs for both toddler play and older children.
As any parent (especially mom’s) know, entertainment centers that have mastered the design of fun and exciting play will create an incredible pull for repeat visits from it’s core demographic of young users.
We call this pull the ‘Nag Factor’ and it is a party center’s greatest word of mouth asset. RULE #1 if it’s fun, the kids will want to come.
In our opinion, the second pillar of great indoor play ground design is a focus on play-a-bility and the natural repeat desire a professional designer can apply to the creative aspects of strong playabillity.
The first pillar of great design, of course, is safety from compliance with industry standards and guidelines laid out by ASTM and others. Not only in the actual playground design, but just as important – the installation of that play structure onsite.
Once your amusement center conquers the Nag Factor, the next step in creating a strong new and repeat customer base is making sure the check-signer (also mom) is willing to come back to your center, because you have ticked all the boxes top of mind for her:
- Safety
- Cleanliness
- Visibility
- Convenience
- Value
The softplay structure you choose, and have professionally installed will directly affect your profitability and the life of your business. Choose wisely, my friends.
