We had the incredible honor of being the exclusive partner for the Seattle Seahawks Kids’ Holiday Party, providing all the play-based entertainment for over 300 kids and families. The event was a big success, filled with energy, excitement, and plenty of unforgettable moments.
Our setup featured fan-favorite attractions like the White Palace Bounce House, Double Bubble House, Toddler Bumper Cars, and Custom Soft Play Packages, giving kids a safe and fun space to enjoy throughout the event. Seahawks dancers and even Blitz, the Seahawks mascot, were in attendance, making the experience even more special for the young fans.
Bringing the Event to Life
Bringing an event like this to life took countless hours of planning and an all-hands-on-deck effort from our team. We started at 6 AM at our office, loading and preparing everything for the day ahead before heading to the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue for setup. With a crew of over 20 Party Baby team members, every detail was carefully arranged to ensure everything was perfect before the first families arrived.
After a full day of non-stop excitement, the final crew didn’t return to the office until 9 PM—making this one of our largest and most rewarding events of the year.
Planning a Great Event—Big or Small
The Seahawks Kids’ Holiday Party is a great example of how thoughtful event planning and structured play areas help create an engaging, well-balanced experience. The event layout, interactive attractions, and flow ensured that kids stayed entertained while parents could relax and enjoy the celebration.
These same principles apply to gatherings of any size—whether it’s a corporate holiday party, company picnic, school event, or private celebration. The key is creating an atmosphere where kids can play, families can connect, and the event runs seamlessly.
For companies planning a family-friendly corporate event or an annual company picnic, adding structured play areas and interactive entertainment is a great way to keep younger guests engaged while making the event more enjoyable for all attendees.
Looking Back at a Great Event
This year’s Seahawks Kids’ Holiday Party was a huge success, bringing together families for a day of fun, laughter, and celebration. Seeing kids enjoy the event—whether bouncing, racing around in bumper cars, or meeting Blitz—was a reminder of how impactful a well-planned event can be.
A huge thank you to the Seattle Seahawks for having us—we loved being part of this special event, and we can’t wait until next year!
FAQ
What are some fun ways to entertain kids at a corporate event?
Great kid-friendly entertainment options include soft play zones, bounce houses, face painting, bubble houses, interactive games, and activity tables—all popular choices at Seattle-area corporate events.
How do you make a corporate event family-friendly?
Designating kid zones, hiring experienced children’s entertainment, and offering age-appropriate snacks or activities helps create a more inclusive, family-friendly experience for employees and guests.
Are bounce houses appropriate for corporate events?
Yes, bounce houses are a great fit for corporate picnics, open houses, and company family days. Just make sure the bounce house is age-appropriate for the children attending. Companies like Party Baby offer a range of bounce house sizes and styles to suit toddlers, older kids, and mixed-age groups—making it easy to match the right setup to your event.
Bounce houses designed for younger children are typically smaller and take up less space, which means you can even rent multiple units for different age groups if space allows. For older kids or high-energy setups, consider something more adventurous like our Cloud 9 Adventure Course—a fast-paced inflatable experience that keeps bigger kids entertained and active.
What age range is soft play best for?
Soft play rentals are ideal for toddlers and children under 5. They offer a safe, enclosed space for active play at both indoor and outdoor corporate events.
Can we rent kid-friendly entertainment for indoor corporate events in Seattle?
Absolutely. Many options like soft play areas, ball pits, and activity stations are perfect for indoor use and can be set up in lobbies, office spaces, or event venues around Seattle.
How do you keep kids of different ages entertained at a corporate event?
The best approach is to offer a mix of entertainment options tailored to different age groups. For example, soft play zones are ideal for toddlers, while bounce houses, games, and activity tables keep older kids engaged. Choose multiple products or stations to create an inclusive experience for everyone.
How do you make a corporate event feel memorable and Instagram-worthy?
Creating an aesthetically pleasing event space is key. Use well-designed setups, cohesive themes, and fun entertainment that photographs beautifully. Before hiring any vendor, check their Instagram or past event photos to see how visually strong their work is—this ensures the event is something employees are proud to post and share.
How much does it cost to rent kids’ entertainment for a corporate event in Seattle?
Pricing typically starts around $500 for small events, depending on the type of entertainment, event length, and number of children. Larger events often require more elaborate setups, multiple packages, and staffing requirements, which we can scale to meet your needs and budget.
What should I look for when hiring kids’ entertainment for a company event?
Look for vendors with experience in corporate event setups, who understand how to entertain kids while working within a professional environment. Bonus points for companies that offer flexible packages, have strong client reviews, and can share photos or videos from past corporate events.
What are the non-negotiables any kids’ entertainment vendor should have?
At a minimum, a vendor should be licensed, insured, and able to provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI). Safety should be a top priority, especially for events with children. Clear communication and transparent setup and teardown procedures are also essential.
