The Growing Market for Children’s Party Franchises and Children’s Play Franchises

Gone are the days of a game of pass the parcel and musical bumps in the front room for a child’s birthday celebration. These days kids parties are big business and children’s party franchises are perfectly positioned to take advantage of this growing market.

Party entertainment is very often a top priority when planning a party and the area where parents are willing to spend most. Starting a children’s party franchise is your chance to be part of a dynamic and lucrative industry. According to a Barclays survey of 1,000 British parents with children under eight or below, the average per party spend is Ā£433.39 (with a separate budget for party bags!).

Community play sessions are often a lifeline for parents and carers. They provide an opportunity to connect with others in the same boat, as well a chance for children to enjoy a range of activities and professional play equipment within a safe and secure environment.

A children’s play franchise is likely to offer sessions in local halls on a weekly or monthly basis. Becoming a fixture in the local community allows for regular business growth and the all-important word of mouth publicity to build year-on-year.

Very often children’s play franchises also have created important links with local nursery schools, groups and events. This expert knowledge of increasing revenue and making the most of your business is one of the key advantages of being part of a franchise brand rather than going it alone.

The Benefits of Buying a Children’s Party Franchise and Children’s Play Franchise UK

No two days are the same when you’re running a party or event business. You’ll be out in the community meeting a wide range of people and having fun while you work.

A party franchise is an opportunity to bring joy to children and families. There’s no greater job satisfaction than seeing smiles on little faces and sharing in special celebrations.

Party franchises often have scope for expansion heading up a team or can be kept as a solo venture if that suits you best.

Running a children’s play franchise is equally rewarding and also gives you the chance to build up relationships with families in your local community. You’re likely to be seeing the same faces each week or month and you’ll get a chance to witness first-hand how a set of young children develop over time.

Play franchises can often be run entirely during school hours which may be ideal if you’re looking for a new career that fits perfectly around family life. If your children are still of pre-school age then you’ll be able to take them to work with you!
