Planning a Corporate Family Day: Choosing Activities by Audience

How to build an activity lineup when your colleagues bring toddlers, primary children, teenagers and adults to the same event.

Identify who is coming

Ask your HR or committee contact for the age breakdown: how many toddlers and preschoolers, primary school children, teenagers and adults are expected. A family day with mostly young children needs different equipment from one with a heavy teenage and adult turnout. Share the breakdown when you request a quotation so the vendor can suggest age-appropriate items.

Activities for younger children

For a younger-child activity area, compare ball pits, kiddy rides and soft play. Confirm the permitted age range and supervision requirements for each item before booking. If you have older children at the same event, ask the vendor whether separate areas or time slots work better than mixed use.

Activities for primary children and teenagers

Bouncy castles, inflatable obstacle courses and carnival game booths are options to discuss, subject to the selected model's permitted ages and operating requirements. For teenage guests, compare claw machines and arcade games. Use the catalogue to shortlist models, then ask BounceParkSG to confirm the permitted ages, maximum users and operating requirements for each selected item.

Activities for adults

For adult guests, compare carnival game booths, arcade machines and food stations. Photo booths and fringe activities like caricature drawing offer a different activity format alongside the games. Ask about items that allow parent and child participation together.

Compare the activity and the quotation separately

A Cube Gashapon Machine and Arcade Basketball offer different formats: capsule vending and a scored basketball game. Ask which supports your programme, and confirm capsules, prizes, branding and staffing separately. An item appearing in the catalogue does not establish its availability or what your event quotation includes.

Food for a mixed audience

For a mixed audience, compare the published menus and confirm dietary needs, serving quantities and the venue's catering rules. See the carnival food page for the published menu. If your venue has dietary requirements or catering restrictions, mention them in your enquiry so the vendor can confirm options.
