Andy's Action Parties has a refined process and typically sets up in about 15 minutes on arrival, then delivers 90 minutes of fully facilitated, high-energy entertainment, which reduces stress for parents and keeps the party running on time.
Andy's Action Parties confirms all details on the Wednesday before the party, then on the day sends a WhatsApp update when the facilitator is on the way, with management monitoring arrivals and keeping communication open so any last-minute changes are handled quickly and calmly.
With reasonable notice, Andy's Action Parties can adapt activities and the overall party feel to suit most themes or special interests, using 25 years of experience to customize while still keeping the structure that makes the party work.
Facilitators are trained to read the group and adjust activities in real time, and because Andy's Action Parties has run parties from small groups of 6-8 kids up to groups of 50, they can switch fast if something is not landing, with enough activities in reserve to keep kids entertained well beyond the standard 90 minutes if needed.
Andy's Action Parties enforces strict safety rules for higher-energy activities such as Nerf and paintball target shooting, including mandatory goggles for Nerf and controlled one-at-a-time paintball handling with all other kids behind a safety line, and in 25 years there have been no injuries from Nerf or paintball parties.

Our team building is built around high energy games and themed challenges that make teamwork visible and memorable. Each activity is fun and physical but designed to surface real dynamics like communication leadership delegation and reliance on teammates. After every step we pause to reflect on what happened in the game and connect it to what teams experience back at work.
Teams experience communication pressure in real time through structured challenges. We then guide a short debrief so the team can identify what worked what failed and how it felt when communication was missing unclear or rushed. That reflection helps teams translate the lesson into a practical change they can apply in the workplace.
Our sessions focus on core team objectives such as communication delegation leadership team roles and coordination under pressure. The goal is not only a great day out but a shared experience that gives the team a clear reference point for better collaboration afterward.
Yes after each activity or phase we run a guided reflection to unpack what the team just experienced. We discuss the behaviours that showed up in the game and how those same patterns might appear in their day to day work so the learning is anchored to a real experience.
We offer a range of experiential themes including Survivor Amazing Race Minute to Win It Nerf Escape Room style challenges and Rube Goldberg machine builds. Each format can be scaled for different group sizes and energy levels while keeping the focus on teamwork and engagement.
It is both but the fun is the vehicle for the learning. The activities create real moments of pressure planning and problem solving and the guided reflection turns those moments into insight the team can use to improve how they work together.
A Rube Goldberg activity challenges teams to design and build a chain reaction machine that completes a simple task through many steps. It is effective because it forces planning role clarity handoffs testing and iteration and it quickly shows how small breakdowns in communication can affect the whole system.
Minute to Win It is a fast paced series of short challenges that keep everyone involved and energised. The format is ideal for engagement because it is simple to understand highly interactive and creates clear moments to reflect on teamwork focus and performance under time pressure.
