Choose The Right Location!
Ensure you have more than enough space for the jumping castle, the area is level and void of all sharp objects. If you are hosting the party at a park, make sure you have contacted the correct council and have the permits required.
Weather Considerations!
Be prepared for unexpected weather changes, have a backup plan organised or a tent / marquee ready in case of rain or extreme heat.
Guest List & Invitations!
Keep your guest list manageable, more children may mean more chaos, keep in mind the size of the jumping castle and the space you have. Send out your invitations early and request for RSVP's so you know how many people to expect.
Party Timing!
Think about when the party should start, is it going to rain in the morning but clear by lunchtime? Is it going to be REALLY hot at 1pm? How long will set up and cleanup take?
Food & Refreshments!
Keep the menu simple with kid friendly food & drink, finger food and a themed cake. You could also have a designated area for eating and drinking to avoid spilling food on the jumping castle.
Decoration & Themes!
Choose a fun theme for your party and decorate to suit. We also have multiple different banners to match the theme of your party to make it extra special.
Music & Entertainment
Create a kid's friendly playlist to keep the energy high!
Clean As You Go!
Set-up bins around the event to keep the area neat and tidy and to make your job of cleaning easier when the day comes to an end.
