Being in charge of your child's elementary school fundraiser is a big responsibility. You have to plan an event that the kids will love and the parents will participate in, and spend some money on. Fall carnivals are school favorites. You can give the other committee members the responsibility of catering the food and setting up the games while you research rental carnival rides that everyone will remember.
The ride that seems to be the favorite of all the kids right now is not even an official ride. It's called the Spider Zone, and it is actually a huge inflatable slide with a multi-level climbing structure attached. Children climb through seven levels, all mesh enclosed, to reach the top of the slide. A number of kids can play on the Spider at one time making it a good option for events with a crowd of children.
The Dragonfly is another favorite of the older elementary school kids. Everyone who has attended a state fair has seen this ride. There is enough room for thirty riders in individual seats. As it gets going, the seats start to pull away from the center of the Dragonfly. At its top speed the arms are sticking straight out.
The Six Spin has some similarities with the Dragonfly, but it will not hold as many riders. It requires much less space than the Dragonfly. There are six seats with one rider each. Every rider has controls. When the Spin speeds up, the operator gives it a thirty degree tilt. The riders make the ride go backwards, up, and down by pushing the control bars back and forth.
You want to make sure there are rides for the youngest students. The Turbo Tub is a fun ride that little ones can get on with or without their parents. The ride spins in a circle, and the riders can spin their individual tubs or lock them so they do not spin. This gives parents the option of deciding how much of a ride their kids can handle.
Meltdown is an action game rather than a ride. Eight people can play at one time. The players stand on individual podiums, and two foam spinning arms try to knock the players off balance. To avoid the arms players have to duck or jump. This is a game that requires agility, stamina, and quick reaction times. It's not for little kids, and the game can take awhile to play if the participants are good at it.
You can not have a fall carnival and leave out the mechanical bull. This is a perennial favorite. Most of the bulls will adjust to the age and weight of the rider. The bigger the rider them more speed the bull will pick up and the more enthusiastically he will buck.
A fall carnival, well planned, will be a big hit with everyone who attends. As long as there is plenty of food, challenging games, and fun rides, the profits will be impressive. More importantly, everyone will have enjoyed themselves, and the school will benefit.
