The length of projects varies depending on the size, design elements desired, and any customization. There are many aspects of starting an indoor playground — market research, design and planning, obtaining business licenses, installation — and some projects naturally take longer than others, depending on what’s needed. Similar to cost estimates, knowing the project’s scope lets us provide a more accurate time estimate for a given project.

Contact us with specifics regarding your vision for the project so we can determine an accurate project timeline.

In addition to our pre-designed play components, our design team lets you create custom play creations unique to your business and brand. For example, one of our frequently customized products is our playable foam sculptures. They’re engaging for all ages, extremely durable and easy to maintain. All of our playground components and products can be tailored to fit your project.

Accommodating multiple age ranges in your playground design encourages various kids to play in the same space with different opportunities. One of the best ways to do this is to design your playground to include different types of play. For example, including areas dedicated to imaginative play, social play, physical play, and more provides play opportunities for kids of different ages.

Another way to accommodate multiple age ranges is to include playground components various age groups can play on. For example, our adventure play equipment attracts kids of all ages, encouraging entire families to participate in the fun. If you need help deciding how to accommodate multiple age ranges in your design, consult with our design team. We can tailor our products and play components to different age groups to meet your needs.

The owner’s manual for your Soft Play equipment contains cleaning instructions and recommended cleaning chemicals, as some products require different cleaning procedures.

Using the proper materials on our play equipment helps keep them in optimal condition for longer.
