Perth and Fremantle have plenty of options for families, from outdoor adventures to hands-on activities and inflatable entertainment. If you’re planning something for a group of children rather than just your own family, there are also plenty of activities that can be brought directly to your school, club or venue.
Here are five ideas worth considering.
1. Get Active with an Obstacle Course
If your kids enjoy a challenge, Inflatable obstacle courses can turn an ordinary afternoon into a bit of a competition.Our obstacle-course range includes options such as the Mega Obstacle Run, a 17-metre inflatable with climbing walls, crawl-through sections and a finishing slide. It can suit school events, community events, sports club activities and other group events.
For a school holiday program or group activity, you could organise short races and let children take turns tackling the course. Before choosing an inflatable, check the available space, age suitability and supervision requirements to make sure it’s appropriate for your event.
An obstacle course is also a useful option when you want children to stay active and involved rather than spending the afternoon sitting around.
2. Try an Interactive Sports Activity
You don’t have to be particularly good at sport to enjoy an inflatable sports game.Monsterball’s current sports range includes activities such as Giant Inflatable Dart, Footy Dart, Bungee Slam Dunk and Mini Golf, giving kids different ways to compete, practise their skills or simply have a go.
These activities can work particularly well for school holiday programs, school events and sports club events because children can take turns rather than everyone needing to participate at exactly the same time.
For a larger group, you can also combine a few different activities and create separate challenge areas.
3. Cool Down with a Water Activity
Perth summers are made for getting wet.Instead of taking the kids to the same swimming spot every weekend, consider adding a water activity to a school, community or private event.
Our current inflatable water-slide range includes options such as Big Kahuna, Bruce the Shark, Fantastic Surf, Green Lagoon and Single Lane Super Slide, with larger options available for bigger events.
Water attractions do require more planning than a standard inflatable. You’ll need to consider the available space, water access, power, site conditions and the age of the children taking part.
If you’re planning a summer school event, our team can help you work through the requirements before choosing an attraction.
4. Head to Fremantle for an Inflatable Adventure
If you’re looking for something different during the spring school holidays, Monster Village Fremantle is another option when it’s running.The latest Monster Village setup at Esplanade Park featured 80 metres of giant obstacle courses and nine inflatable attractions, giving kids and teenagers plenty of opportunities to climb, slide, bounce and race.
It’s a good example of how combining several inflatable activities can keep children moving for longer than a single attraction.
If you’re organising your own school holiday program, school event or community day, you can take a similar approach by combining several activities at your venue.
5. Create Your Own Activity Day
You don’t always need to take the kids somewhere to give them a fun day out.For schools, OSHC programs, community groups and larger family events, we can bring the activities to you.
Our current range includes bouncy castles, obstacle courses, sports inflatables, water slides, climbing activities, giant games and other interactive attractions. We can help you put together a combination based on the age group, available space and type of event you’re planning.
For example, a school holiday program could combine an obstacle course with sports games and a smaller inflatable for younger children. A summer event could add a water attraction to the mix.
The idea isn’t to fill the entire day with activities. It’s to give kids enough options to stay active, try something new and spend time with their friends.
