Blippi Explores Billy Beez Indoor Playground - Great to see our Play Structure featured here


Blippi enjoys a day of playtime at Billy Bees in Anaheim, CA. Blippi learns about colors of the rainbow while playing on the rainbow slides, goes through an obstacle course, shoots balls in the ballistics arena, and stops by Honeycomb Village to visit and learn about the different types of stores you might find in a city or a town.

Come explore the wonderous world with everybody's best friend, Blippi. How does a recycling truck work? What does a baker do? What is the best playground around? There are so many exciting things to explore and learn. Feed your kids’ curiosity while they learn about vehicles, animals, the natural world and so much more. Blippi helps children‘s understanding of the world and encourages vocabulary development.

iPlayCO Celebrates 20 years of Fun

iPlayCO Celebrates 20 years of Fun

iPlayCO, 20 years of FUN, Indoor Playgrounds, Trampolines, Custom Designs


iPlayCO, a leading manufacturer of safe, fun play structures enjoyed by children of all ages, is proud to celebrate its 20th anniversary.  Founded in 1999 in Langley, British Columbia, Canada, iPlayCO has installed play structures in over 70 countries and employs over 150 team members at offices in Canada, Italy, Bulgaria and the Philippines.
iPlayCO’s first project, completed in April 1999, was for a restaurant in San Jose, Costa Rica. Twenty years later, we have completed over 4,000 installations, ranging in value from approximately ten thousand dollars to over two million dollars.  Our largest playground order, the 24,938 square foot play center in the Mall of Dharan, Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia is recognized in the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest children’s soft-play area ever built.

iPlayCO’s success is founded on the drive and creativity of its employees.  We are one of very few companies in our industry with the ability to custom-design projects when a customer envisions a play center with elements currently unavailable “off the shelf” from any supplier. iPlayCO designs, manufactures and installs play structures, providing a personalized experience from initial concept to the day a new facility opens its doors to welcome local children for the first time.

The past 24 months have been some of the most satisfying in iPlayCO’s history, as the company shifts its strategy from heavy reliance on a single strategic partner to developing a more balanced, multinational sales mix.  Acquisitions in Europe brought local marketing and service capabilities that would have been difficult to establish on our own.
iPlayCO’s manufacturing facility in the Philippines keeps our team current on industry trends in the Asian market and complements the companies North American and European facilities when we work on special projects.   Strengthening demand for iPlayCO products in Asia is an important part of our strategy going forward.

iPlayCO’s headquarters and core operations remain in Langley, where approximately 60 employees manage responsibilities from design to production planning, manufacturing to installation, and the majority of our senior management functions.  In 2015, we expanded our floor space to approximately 60,000 square feet to facilitate faster delivery times and greater design flexibility.  The increasingly international nature of iPlayCO’s business now sees managers in a variety of roles traveling extensively for marketing, production and other purposes.  It is a sign that we are not only growing but maturing into a truly multinational supplier in our industry.

“Today’s anniversary marks a milestone in iPlayCO’s development that everyone on our team can take great pride in,” said Scott Forbes, iPlayCO’s President, CEO and Director.  “When we think of the millions of families that have enjoyed our play structures, it reminds us why we started this business two decades ago.  I am happy to lead a team that has its eye on product quality and business results, while keeping foremost in mind our mission to provide children with an environment in which to have fun and develop through new challenges.  That is why we have grown and continue to welcome both repeat business and new clients year after year.  It is a credit to our team, and we are only just beginning to realize what this group can achieve.”

How to Plan For a Kids Indoor Playground for Your Facility


How to Plan For a Kids Indoor Playground for Your Facility

Indoor playgrounds are a great addition for businesses who want to add more fun to their day. And if you have already thought of having one, it’s actually simpler than you ever thought. Indoor playgrounds are actually spreading like wildfire since it can be associated with different businesses.
If you look around, there a number of restaurants around town have playground partners. This means that these establishments have created recreational areas for kids to have fun before or after having a bite. Before starting with having your own indoor playground, better make sure to plan it well with these simple guidelines.

Do your Research
Before starting, you should gather information on your prospect neighbourhood. Here are simple questions to get started on doing your research:
Any specific neighborhoods in mind?
Any target location in mind within the neighborhoods you have chosen?
How many children are between ages 0-12
How many competitors within the neighborhood?
If there are, how will you be able to market yours?
How much will be the costing in total?
How big the space needed for the playground?
What is the purpose of the playground?
Even though these are simple questions, these questions help in providing a concrete picture on the progress of your indoor playground. It will also help you establish your own business plan that you will eventually show your potential investors.

Create a Business Plan
After answering the questions above, you can now start with the serious stuff. Creating a business plan is essential to starting a business. Along with the information generated from the questions above, this is where you will indicate calculations and simple analysis of the business: examples are break-even analysis, start-up expenses, and 3-year projections. Moreover, having a business plan can help in convincing investors to invest in the business.

Preparation and Production
After finally deciding on the finances, location and theme of the playground, it’s time to prepare the equipment. There are a lot of playground manufacturers who are skilled in creating safe and high-quality equipment that is recognized by international organizations. Of course, safety is a number one concern of parents.

Playgrounds are a place of fun and friendship for children. That is why safety and quality of materials should be considered in order to lessen the worries of parents and let the kids roam around at their own free will. And when it comes to manufacturing and installing playground equipment, IPLAYCO has been creating FUN since 1999, planning, and designing kid’s indoor playground for any type of business and is recognized by many international organizations.
