One thing that children love about summer is going out to have fun at various outdoor events such as carnivals, fairs, and many other themed community events. Many of these events contain special interactive inflatables that are actually fun-filled games. In today’s post, we’ll talk about different kinds of games that are interactive inflatable games. We’ll discuss some of the types you can find and when you might want to use them.
There are several types games that are interactive inflatables. Many of them are sports related, to one degree or another. One interesting game that isn’t necessarily sports related is the Bungee Run. Basically, these interactive inflatables have a soft runway in which someone tries to run to the end while attached to a bungee chord. This can prove a wonderful challenge due to the strength of bungee cords, as well as the fact that the fabric of these interactive inflatables doesn’t allow for much friction to help you run.
Another great game is the Velcro Wall. These interactive inflatables can be thought of as giant flypaper walls. What you do is you put on a Velcro vest and then bounce as high as you can before jumping into the wall. The goal is to stick yourself to the wall as high up as you can. Whoever sticks the highest wins the game. This can keep kids entertained for hours, as well as tire them out.
There’s a great inflatable game that is geared more towards older children. I’m talking about the inflatable Joust Mattress. These interactive inflatables are basically jousting arenas similar to what you might see on American Gladiators. In this game, you have two people standing on platforms above the rest of the inflatable mattress. They have large padded jousting sticks. The goal of the game is to knock your opponent off their platform and onto the soft mattress below.
In terms of interactive inflatable games, this is just the tip of the iceberg. There are many more inflatable games out there for children to have fun with at any kind of outdoor or large indoor event. You can check out our main page to see if we can help you find one that matches your situation.
Have you ever seen or used any of these interactive inflatable games? If so, how did the children react to them? We’d love to hear from anyone who has stories about great times with these interactive inflatable games in the comments section below.
As summertime approaches, more and more outdoor inflatables can be seen being used. However, it’s going to get so hot outside that perhaps people might not want to go outside to experience whatever fun these inflatables represent, wherever they are.
There is a solution to both keeping cool while being able to go to events and enjoying them. There are outdoor inflatables that can most certainly keep you cool. There are a couple types of these inflatables.
In today’s post, we’ll talk about at least two types of outdoor inflatables that are perfect for dealing with the insane heat of the summer. One type that will be talked about is more geared towards children. The other type is great for people of all ages.
First, let’s talk about what kind of outdoor inflatables children might really enjoy. In the summertime, children like to keep cool with water. It’s well known that they like to play in sprinklers and have water gun fights. There are also special waterslides that children can play on, which have their counterparts in our giant inflatable waterslides. These kinds of slides have the personality of regular inflatable slides, but they can be hooked up to a water source for children to have a total blast with their friends.
There are inflatables that children and adults alike can use to great effect during the summertime to stave off the heat. Regular inflatable tents are a staple of any major outdoor event. These inflatables offer respite from the sun’s blazing glare, especially when you keep coolers of chilled drinks underneath them.
There are even inflatable tents that offer more cooling power than their shady brethren. Inflatable misting tents spray fine mists of water over anybody who walks through them. They may not necessarily soak you, but they offer a refreshing blast when the day is at its hottest.
As far as outdoor inflatables that use water go, we’d like to remind our readers to exercise caution when using them. For one, children should be monitored when using inflatable water slides. Also, when you put away your inflatables, make sure they are completely dry before you store them, otherwise you might have to deal with mold destroying your inflatables.
Next time you want to get outdoor inflatables to beat the heat, try some of the ones mentioned here. You can find them at our main web page. Also, if you have some experiences about them to share, please leave a comment in the comment section below.
Using a giant inflatable that looks like food to promote food seems to be fairly common these days. Many restaurants have large versions of their food hoisted on top of their businesses or tied down out front. Why would anyone want to use a giant inflatable for food promotion, anyway? Isn’t food so desirable that you don’t need to convince people they should eat? Well, the fact of the matter is that there are many different food services out there all competing for a place in your stomach. Getting a giant inflatable to promote your food may be what gives you an advertising edge.
Giant inflatable food comes in many different varieties. I’ve already mentioned that people use giant inflatable food to promote their specific food products at their place of business. There are other kinds of ways to use giant inflatable foods for product promotion. One particularly fun way to do giant inflatable food promotion is by using inflatable food costumes.
Inflatable food costumes are a bit different than the typical giant inflatable food. Inflatable food walk abouts are actually for real live people to wear around to give personality and life to pieces of various kinds of foods. This type of promotion can be used for more than just restaurant food promotion.
Suppose there’s a new grocery store in town that wants to get new customers in through their doorways. They have a great selection of food products, but people aren’t used to shopping there, and they might not even know that the place has opened. If a few of the employees of the grocery store were to wear different kinds of food inflatable costumes, then they might more likely draw in customers by dancing around to get their attention.
Even though giant inflatable food can be used to promote what a business has to offer more directly, it doesn’t always have to be that way. In some instances, giant inflatable food can be used to promote other things. For example, a big opening could use giant inflatable food to make the event more attractive to guests. Giant pieces of food would add a more fun and relaxed atmosphere.
There are many ways to use giant inflatable food for promotion. Whatever you are going to do it for, make sure you find quality inflatables. When you find out what you want, you can check out Inflatable Design Group to see if we can help you. Also, we’d like to hear what interesting ways people use giant inflatable food for their promotional efforts. Please leave your comments in the comment section below.
Like many things, inflatables are not indestructible, no matter how cool they look or how well they are designed. An important aspect of looking for an inflatable manufacturer is whether or not they have services related to repair, maintenance, and storage. While we at Inflatable Design Group aren’t going to give you up-front details about these services on our main web page, we are more than happy to talk about handling your giant inflatables.
To start off this blog post, as an inflatable manufacturer we want to talk about some ways you can properly handle your giant inflatable products, no matter where you get them from. Your giant inflatable lizard might look imposing, but the truth is that all inflatables are made of fabrics than can easily be ripped when handled improperly.
Ripping doesn’t only occur when an inflatable is inflated. Inflatables can also take a bit of damage while in storage. Inflatables need to be properly cleaned before they are stored. Even tiny bits of debris can have a devastating effect on the material that an inflatable manufacturer makes them out of. Make sure your inflatable is clear of any sand or dirt before you pack it up.
One thing you can do with your giant inflatables is to lay them flat on a clean surface and then sweep them off with a brush or broom. The kind with bristles should be fine, but if you have something that can remove debris with air blasts, go for it. Once you have cleaned off the visible debris, you can go ahead and clean it off with water.
When it comes to washing your inflatable, don’t forget to let it dry completely before you pack it up. This is also something that should be paid attention to when it comes to giant inflatables that use water, such as water slides.
The reason an inflatable manufacturer would advise this, is for a very simple reason. Water in dark places will cause mold to grow. Over time, mold can eat large and small holes through your inflatables.
At the end of the day, your inflatables will not last forever. Rips will happen at some point. When this does happen, be sure you know an inflatable manufacturer who has repair services. For more information about this, you can check out our main page. Other than that, we invite you to share any maintenance tricks you might have related to giant inflatables in the comment section below.
Small businesses can always use a promotional boost, and using a giant inflatable to achieve this is one of many ways. Since there are so many different kinds of giant inflatables and ways to use a giant inflatable, what are some ways a small business owner can effectively promote their company with inflatables? In today’s post, we’ll try to help you come up with some ideas for using inflatables to promote your business.
A great way to use a giant inflatable to promote your small business is to have some sort of event at your place of business where the giant inflatable draws a lot of attention to your business. For example, if you own a new restaurant, you could have a giant inflatable menu item that is unique to your style of restaurant, such as a hot fudge sundae. It could also be a giant logo. If you go this route, you might need to have it custom made so that your brand is built stronger in the minds of your customers, as well as potential customers.
Back to the restaurant example---instead of a giant inflatable menu item or logo, you could use an inflatable costume. This is also a great way to motivate employees to get in the spirit of your company. As with the earlier example, the inflatable costume could be a piece of food, or whatever product you want. Even better, it could be an inflatable mascot, if you have a mascot. This way, customers can have a great interaction with your company as they walk up to the door and are greeted by whoever is wearing the inflatable costume.
If using a giant inflatable isn’t enough promotion for your small business, you can always get sealed units. Essentially, a sealed unit is a point-of-purchase piece that you can put inside your business. They can be product replicas, logos, or anything else that represents what your business is all about. People respond well to sealed units because they can be carried and they seem to be very fun. Imagine picking up a giant can of Monster energy drink!
There are more ways to promote your small business with a giant inflatable, or any inflatables, than we can cover in today’s post. Whatever you decide to do, make sure you do your market research first. Once you know what you want, check out our main page to see if we can help you get a custom-made giant inflatable for your business. Beyond that, if you have any ideas you’ve used to great effect, or any other comments, feel free to leave a reply in the comment section below. We look forward to hearing from our readership.
As you may know by now, there are more than a dozen ways for you to promote your business using custom inflatables. A really fun way to do this is with product replicas. If you can’t already tell, product replicas are essentially custom inflatables that look like the product your company sells to consumers. The numbers of types these are limited only by what your company has to offer to people. This is the sort of thing where you want to let your imagination soar.
In today’s blog post, we are going to talk about different uses of custom inflatables in terms of product replicas. We’ll give some hypothetical scenarios, as well as real examples. There are too many to talk about, so we’ll cover only a small fraction of what’s out there.
Let’s start with the very small. What I mean is point-of-purchase custom inflatables. Basically, point-of-purchase pieces are inflatables that aren’t necessarily larger than a human being in size. Let’s say you own a fast food shop that sells tacos. For your grand opening, you have a special promotion to show off the kinds of food you want people to try. You could have inflatable tacos and drinks to show where people can try them out at your promotional event. These inflatables are small compared to other types, but they are large enough to catch people’s eyes.
Another example of product replicas could be even larger than that. In fact, most examples of product replica custom inflatables tend to be larger than life. Our main web page actually showcases a few we’ve done in the past here at Inflatable Design Group. Imagine being at an event and seeing a gigantic Lay’s Classic potato chips bag towering over you. This would more likely draw your attention than booths without such a presence.
When you’re ready to get product replicas, it’s possible that you could get other products for an event to show where to find certain things. However, the best way to use product replicas is if they are custom inflatables. These kinds of custom jobs are best for companies looking to build brand recognition for better promotion.
Product replica custom inflatables are just one of many types used for advertising and promotion. They can be one of the best ways to get people to try a product. We’d like to hear from people who have used product replicas in their promotional efforts. What worked? What didn’t work? Please let us know in the comments section below
Over at the main website for Inflatable Design Group, we offer many different kinds of inflatables, including an inflatable animal collection. In this catalog, we feature a few different animals. There is one inflatable animal that has a tendency to stick out and draw questions.
The inflatable animal that sticks out to some is the union rat inflatable. We’ve been asked why it’s called that and what it is used for, considering it doesn’t look very pleasing to children who generally like animal inflatables. In today’s post, we’ll discuss what the union rat is, where it comes from, and what it is used for.
To start, the union rat is an inflatable animal that is in the shape of a giant rat. The design of this inflatable animal is not such that it will be pleasant to look it. It is generally grotesque to look at because it is used to draw lots of attention and immediate reactions.
People who are a part of trade unions use the union inflatable rat when they start protests and strikes against their employers or nonunion contractors, which are commonly referred to as rats. The inflatable rat is sometimes called Scabby the Rat. This is in reference to strikebreakers, who are often called scabs.
Strikebreakers are people who work for a company during a strike against the company to keep it running. To be considered a scab, you can either be hired during the strike, or you are a strikebreaker who stops striking and crosses the picket line.
There’s not much more to the tale of the union rat inflatable animal. They have been used for years, with accounts dating back to 1991. They may be unsightly, but they are effective enough for people to want to keep using them.
We at Inflatable Design Group won’t get involved in the politics of your picket, but if you are looking for this type of inflatable animal, we can deliver on the goods. If you want it to look more grotesque than what we feature on our website, you can always get a custom quote from us. Our team of designers can handle anything.
This concludes our post about the inflatable animal known as the union rat.
