It's like a giant bubble bath that kids and adults can dance, play, and splash around in!" } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is the foam safe for children?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Absolutely! Our foam solution is hypoallergenic, non-toxic, non-staining, and biodegradable. It's safe for all ages, including toddlers. The foam is similar to what you'd find in a gentle bubble bath." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How much space do I need?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "We recommend a minimum of 20×20 feet of flat outdoor space for a basic setup. Larger crowds may need more room. We can also set up on driveways, backyards, parks, and fields." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What about cleanup?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Cleanup is included in every package! The foam dissolves naturally and leaves no residue. We handle all equipment breakdown. Your space will look just like it did before we arrived." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How long does the foam last?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "We run foam for the length of your event window. After the machine stops, foam naturally dissolves within 1-2 hours. You can speed cleanup by rinsing with a garden hose. The foam solution leaves no stain." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What should guests wear?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Comfortable clothes they don't mind getting wet — swimwear, shorts and a t-shirt, or athletic wear works great. Bring a change of clothes and a towel. The foam rinses out of clothing with a normal wash cycle." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What ages are foam parties appropriate for?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "All ages — from kids as young as 4 to adults! We serve birthday parties, school field days, VBS and church events, corporate team-building, and neighborhood block parties." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How far in advance should I book?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "We recommend 2-4 weeks in advance, especially for weekend dates in spring and summer. Peak summer weekends book fast. Call or text (309) 245-2468 to check your date." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What if it rains on my event day?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Light rain doesn't cancel a foam party! We do not operate during lightning, thunderstorms, or high winds. If severe weather forces a cancellation, we'll reschedule at no charge." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Can you set up at a school or church?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Absolutely — schools and churches are some of our most popular venues. We carry liability insurance and can provide proof upon request. Book early for school and church events as these dates go fast." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you serve areas outside of Farmington?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes! We serve Farmington and the surrounding Central Illinois area. Check our Service Areas section or call (309) 245-2468 to confirm we cover your location." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you offer bubble parties?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes! We add a bubble machine to any foam party for free, and our Foam + Bubble Party Package includes 7 GIANT bubble stations where kids make huge bubbles." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What does a foam party cost?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Our Foam + Bubble Party Package is $500 and includes 7 GIANT bubble stations, and our Foam Party Package is $400. Both include music, an on-site attendant, delivery, setup, teardown, and clean, safe foam. Having a large event? Our Large Event Package is custom-quoted — call or text (309) 245-2468, or request it in the booking form and we'll call you right back. A delivery fee applies outside Farmington — $100 for Peoria, East Peoria, Morton, Dunlap, and Chillicothe, and $140 for Bloomington/Normal and Springfield." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What cities do you serve?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "We're based in Farmington and serve Central Illinois, including Bloomington/Normal, Chillicothe, Dunlap, East Peoria, Farmington, Morton, Peoria, and Springfield. Call or text (309) 245-2468 if your town isn't listed." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How is payment handled?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "We accept all major credit cards, cash, and Venmo. No deposit required for most bookings — payment is due at your event after setup is complete. Your booking is confirmed once we reach out to verify your date." } } ] }, { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "FAQ", "item": "/faq" } ] } ] ```
