faqs
Q: Is my basement enough space to run the activities?
A: Most basements are perfect. We just ask that you clear as much space as possible before we arrive!
Q: What types of games do you host?
A: We play games similar to the ones kids know from school or summer camps. Examples are: Octopus, Fruit Basket, Relay Race, Human Knot, Bring Me, Clean Up Your Room etc. For smaller spaces, we're sticking to challenges like Cup Stack, Spaghetti Tower, Cookie Face, Card Sorting, Charades, Taboo, Guessing Games etc.
Q: When during the party should I schedule this?
A: Ideally at the beginning (just be sure to tell parents to be on time for the games). It's best done BEFORE eating or a few hours after
Q: I've got a mixture of ages, can we still do active games?
A: We'll touch base with you beforehand to discuss the majority age and your preferences. We usually prefer a maximum age range of 3 years so all children are adequately challenged and engaged
Q: My child has a favourite game, do you take requests?
A: Yup! Just be sure to email it to us ahead of time
Q: Do the kids get water breaks?
A: Yes!
Q: What type of equipment do you bring?
A: Utility balls, pylons, ropes, parachutes etc
Q: Is there anything I should tell the guests?
A: Please remind guests to wear running shoes and something comfortable, as well as bring a water bottle
Q: Do you bring prizes?
A: We typically do not bring prizes, however we can arrange prizes at an added cost. You can also provide your own prizes and we can distribute :)
Q: Our party is outdoors, can you run games outside?
A: Outside is PERFECT! If it is hot, we will look for a shady area and make time for water breaks.
