Employee Appreciation & Family Day Rentals
The measure of a good family day is whether people bring their kids. Here's how to make sure they do.
Employees decide whether to bring their family based on what's there for the kids. Catering and a DJ get you a company picnic. Attractions get you a family day.
Give us your expected headcount, the age split, and your open hours. We'll size the attraction mix so nobody's standing in a line for forty minutes on their day off — and we staff every unit so your HR team can actually enjoy it.
Build for three groups at once
- Little kids. Standard bounce houses and combo units. High turnover, low supervision burden, parents can see them from a table.
- Big kids and teens. Obstacle courses, zorb balls, knockerballs. They'll be bored by anything gentler.
- Adults. This is the group most family days forget. Archery tag, axe throw simulator, velcro wall, the 26-foot rock wall — and a dunk tank with a willing executive in it.
The dunk tank rule
A dunk tank at an employee event only works if someone senior gets in it. If leadership won't sit in the tank, spend the money on a rock wall instead — an empty dunk tank is worse than no dunk tank.
We staff it so you don't
Trained attendants on every unit for the run of the event. On an employee appreciation day this matters more than at any other event type: the whole point is that your people are being appreciated, not put to work running a bounce house.
Where these happen
- Company parking lot or campus grounds. Most common. Concrete gets sandbagged, grass gets staked.
- A park. Note that every park requires a generator from us, one per inflatable, and most require a permit and a certificate of insurance. Check our venue guides before you pick one.
- An indoor venue. Ballasted, not staked. Ceiling clearance decides what fits.
The practical stuff
- Power: dedicated 20 amp circuit per blower within 100 feet, or generators from us — one per inflatable.
- Insurance: certificate naming your company and the property, at 4.5% of the order for commercial locations.
- Access: 36 inches for a bounce house, 42 for a bigger game.
- Supervision: one monitor per unit. 200 lb per rider — a real constraint at an adult event.
- Lead time: 30 days is comfortable. Spring and fall weekends go earlier.
Common questions
Do you provide staff for the attractions?
Yes, and for an employee event we'd push you to use them. Your HR team shouldn't spend the day operating equipment.
How many attractions for 300 employees plus families?
Depends on your open hours and the age split. Give us both and we'll size it honestly, including telling you when you're renting more than you need.
Can you do this at a park?
Yes, with the park's permit and a generator per unit from us. Some parks prohibit inflatables entirely — City Park does. Check the venue guides first.
What about adults on the equipment?
Most units have a 200 lb per-rider limit. Archery tag, axe throw, velcro wall and the rock wall are built for adults — that's what we'd steer you toward.
