In the United States, Indoor Playgrounds were established in 1990s and gained
immediate popularity. In the Philippines, the concept of an indoor playground was adopted in the
late 1990s basically by fast food restaurants which later on spread and emerged as play centers
in malls. The researchers have noticed that the kids in the indoor play centers have the chance to
be exposed to more physically activities and not only that they also tend to develop socialization
with other kids. In addition to these benefits, as the kids play, the parents are guiding them, thus
establishing a strong parent-child bonding.
Indoor play centers serve an increasing need in our local society. Based on studies
(Dollman, Norton, & Norton, 2005; Lester & Russell, 2010), children are becoming less active
and less fit than they were, probably due to increasing time in front of television sets and
gadgets, and high calorie-high fat diets. Less active children are more likely to be overweight,
and overweight children have a greater propensity to become overweight adults.
In view of these alarming health problems, the researchers believe that establishing an
indoor in our local community, which is Deparo, will help address these health problems and
also help create a strong parent-child relationship, bringing this industry to the locale will
provide more accessibility foe the people. In addition to this, the researchers also believe that the
proposed business, which will be a new industry in the area, can help attract more people and
promote the area as well. The purpose of this study is to understand if a childrens play center
could be feasible in Deparo which will then give the ability to provide the service, its benefits for
the people of the community and at the same time meet their needs and satisfy their wants.

CHAPTER 2
INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Indoor playgrounds, also known as indoor play centers, are playgrounds located in
interior environment. They are specifically designed for kids to play in and have tremendous fun
with. The soft-contained structure and play equipment are wrapped in soft foam to absorb the
impact when children fall or bounce around. As such, an indoor playground is usually a safer
play area compared to an outdoor playground.
BRIEF BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Since its origination in 1990s from the US, indoor playground has enjoyed immense
popularity all over the world. Today, it has evolved from simple indoor climbing frame, to
complex children play center that includes multiple play areas serving different age groups.
Aside from letting the children play as one of the main source of income, the revenue of indoor
playground comes from a diverse source of childrens entertainment and services such as:
hosting party, kids art and craft, drinks, and more.
In the Philippines, the concept of an indoor playground was adopted in the late 1990s
mostly by fast food restaurants which later on spread in malls. The researchers have noticed that
the kids in the indoor playgrounds have the chance to be exposed to more physically activities
and not only that they also tend to develop socialization with other kids. In addition to these
benefits, as the kids play, the parents are guiding them, thus establishing a strong parent-child
bonding.
Indoor play centers serve an increasing need in our society. Based on studies (Dollman,
Norton, & Norton, 2005; Lester & Russell, 2010), children are becoming less active and less fit
than they were, probably due to increasing time in front of television sets and gadgets, and high
calorie-high fat diets. Less active children are more likely to be overweight, and overweight
children have a greater propensity to become overweight adults.
aware of the healthy aspects of their lifestyles, enrolment in adult health clubs, aerobic exercise,
recreational activities, and attention to nutrition has increased dramatically. This trend will
continue as parents attempt to provide a healthier lifestyle for their children. Another area of
parental concern is their children's safety. Nationally, as well as locally, concern for the physical
well-being of children has created a further need for a safe play environment.
Therefore, the researchers believe bringing an indoor playground to our local community,
which is Deparo, will help address the rising problems with the childrens health issues. It will
also be introduced as a new industry in the area that can help attract more people and promote
the area as well. The purpose of this study is to understand if a childrens play center could be
feasible in Deparo, which is now a rising and advancing community. This advancement has
highlighted an opportunity to go with the trend that meet the needs of the community and ensure
the relevance of an indoor play center for all customers, especially for children and their
families. The proposed business will be called as BRAGZ Playhauz which offers a unique
service since its aim is to establish a strong bond between the parent and the child through play.
Determine the appropriate business organization, the people who will be involved
both before and during the operating periods of the proposed business and their
functions;
Determine the profitability level of the proposed business how can it maximize its
business.

in the Philippines (UNICEF Philippines, 2012) show that only 3 out of children aged 0-6 years
old have access to day care or any form of learning. Some parents are generally unaware that
various forms of play actually keep children healthy and sharpen a childs skills in listening, selfexpression, observation and other skills for beginning literacy. Play-based learning could be the
key to develop an early love of learning, which can improve school attendance, creativity and
ultimately, spell the difference between the success and failure of a child when he starts formal
school. Through active play and the use of manipulative toys and learning materials, the childs
natural curiosity to explore could be encouraged, his creativity could be developed and most
importantly, a positive learning experience could be provided. It will give them a solid
foundation in basic literacy and numeracy and teaches them to develop focus, learn group
dynamics, and share with others. This produces children who are eager to learn and because they
are ready for school and able to handle their social interactions with other children, they are less
likely to drop out.
FOREIGN LITERATURE
Free Play and Play Space Design
Over the past decade, there has been a growing consensus that childrens active play
opportunities are declining, particularly in modern industrialized contexts. A systematic literature
review indicates that childrens declining physical activity levels in a variety of community
contexts is a significant public health concern (Dollman, Norton, & Norton, 2005; Lester &
Russell, 2010). In Australia, less than half of Year K, 2, and 4 students are currently meeting the
Australian physical activity guidelines for young people (NSW Department of Health, 2011).
Therefore, there is a continued need for play spaces that promote and afford children with
opportunities for active free play.
Play spaces are often designed with a certain age group in mind who will play in certain
ways. However, play spaces can be multi-age and in a commercial setting, particularly where
families or groups of families might gather for play, it is important to consider the range and
variety of play opportunities that are suited to a range of ages. Babies from a young age are able
to enjoy the positive elements of a play environment and if catered for can be provided with a
play space alongside children of other ages. Managing the play space and designing with this in
mind takes some care. Toddlers once mobile can start to move around a space and test
themselves, climbing and clambering up low structures. They like to play alongside others
(parallel play) but often play alone. Toddlers with older siblings might follow their siblings and
attempt to mimic their play and siblings will often act as pseudo carers to these toddlers. As
children become older in their early childhood years and middle childhood they will seek to
engage in play with others, sharing play experiences, building spaces to hide and pretend (this is
the age of the cubbies) socialising talking about their play adventures, making rules and testing
their risk taking skills (Rogers, 2008). Play spaces need to accommodate this versatility by
designing explorative and creative elements with a balance of climbing and skilled play. With
increasing age children normally will also play in more integrated or cooperative ways.
Identifying the level of social participation in play activity can be representative of a child's
maturity in social and cognitive development. The best play environments for children are those
which are developed on the basis of children's natural play needs, taking into account the play
behaviour engaged in at different developmental periods, including the social, physical and
cognitive forms of play. Conflicts or withdrawal are more likely to occur when children are
crowded and play equipment and materials are limited. Even in play environments with
considerable space, paucity of equipment and materials limits children's play options and leads to
increased levels of boredom and aggression and lack of social, physical and cognitive
development.
How play spaces function that is their affordance to promote certain activities and
meanings, are often more important to children than the aesthetics or physical structures of place.
That is, even in small places which may not contain a lot of physical elements or even be very
aesthetically pleasing, children will show a great desire to connect and have a sense of ownership
of a play space, especially if it becomes part of their every day or regular play experiences.
Wohlwill and Heft (1987) extended the use of affordances by articulating the environment-child
relationship in play spaces in terms of three characteristics: affordances, sensory stimulation and
response feedback. So affordance is the functional aspects of play environment, what a child
enacts in the function of their play opportunities in a place and this can vary according to their
age, skills, experience, and motivation.
Response
feedback alternatively focuses on how the play environment has the capacity to respond to the
desired activities of the child during play. Free play is also a culturally mediated activity that
may take different forms in different groups. Recently, researchers have begun to explore the
cultural dimensions of childrens play in order to understand how childrens expression of culture
impact on the form and content of their play choices. Interestingly, cross-cultural research also
suggests that children enact cultural-specific themes, reflecting activities and values that are
important within specific communities, although there seems to be some universal dimensions of
play. For example, research has tended to notice that 2-4 year olds universally use similar objects
in pretend play and that for children of all ages and ethnicities, play is a key site for engaging
social interaction between children. Providing cultural references (McConaghy, 2008) through
the play whether as permanent or temporary play elements also encourages childrens cultural
literacy. There is much to learn about the potential to build play spaces that engage with
childrens self-made cultural references though play designers such as Ric McConaghy and
others in Australia who have been working to build opportunities for children to be creative in
articulating childrens cultures through play space design.
It is important that children feel socially included in their play space. When considering
making a play space inclusive to all children the designer needs to consider access as a physical
and social issue. An inclusive environment considers access for someone who uses a mobility
aid, such as a wheel chair, access because of age or size, and inclusion as a social norm. A play
space for diverse users should be viewed as available and inclusive of all children regardless of
their age, ethnicity, and finally participation. What opportunities exist for different types and
levels of participation of play activities at the site? Having a variety of different types of play
opportunities, with a range of elements and features not only caters to the broad range of children
who will come to the play space but also ensures that multiple visits will not find children bored
and uninterested.
All children need to play and children with disability have exactly the same range of
interests and needs as any other child or group of children (Jeavons, 2008, p. 108). Play
therefore is also a key site to support children of all physical abilities to be able to engage in
open-ended opportunities that will extend their own physical capacities and allow them to
interact with other children easily. According to Jeavons (2008) there are three universal ways to
improve general access and engagement in play spaces. The first is the value of seamless
physical access into play spaces, so accessible surfacing, paths and same level entries and exits,
second is the importance of front on accessibility for children who use wheelchairs, and the third
is providing seating for carers. Past research conducted in collaboration with people with a broad
range of abilities has revealed a number of important considerations and best practices for
designing inclusive play spaces. Integral principles include creating spaces that: take into
account a diverse range of users; can be used by more than one child at a time; and provide a
variety of pathways and activities. Best practices in inclusive design, and particularly for
children with physical disabilities include: integrating accessible surfacing (e.g. rubber, rubber
tile, wood, etc.) with less-accessible surfacing (e.g. sand, pea gravel, wood chips, etc.);
accessible entry to, as well as throughout the play space; sloped and flat terrain with ramps if
required; knee clearances (e.g. at play tables); wider spaces for children who use wheelchairs;
and appropriate seating and shade (Standfield, 2008). Additionally, design ideas based on nature
of ability, will include sensory considerations, such as textured and coloured patterns, coloured
cues on key play areas (e.g. steps and level changes), distinguishable hand grips at multiple
levels, fencing and partially enclosed areas, and sensory experiences, such as touch, sound, and
smell, with nature (Department for Victorian Communities, 2007). These best practices can be
integrated into the overall design to create a rich and inclusive play space for all children.
Through free play, children learn about cultural identity and inclusion. Not all children,
however, have equal access to play or play facilities. This may be due to adults lack of
awareness of its importance, restricted availability and resources, difficulties in physical access
or fear for childrens safety.
communities with many research projects illustrating that adults who take children to play spaces
and play with their children are more likely to make adult friends and more likely to feel
connected and less isolated in their community. The value of the play space therefore isnt just
about children and their free play needs but about the opportunity for children and their adult
carer to connect with others. This is a fundamental principle when considering how to design
inclusive and valuable play spaces.
Safety is an important consideration in all play spaces and there are a number of
standards and requirements provided by the government that need to be followed. Australian
Playground standards are largely about play equipment, its construction and maintenance and the
surfaces where children might be in contact with the ground. Natural play spaces often offer a
number of benefits for children and if designed well can often provide much more open ended
and variable play opportunities than hard structures and prefabricated equipment. Supervision is
a fundamental ingredient for safety and ensuring the provision for parents and carers to be
immersed in the play space allowing them to participate playing with children or close by where
they may enjoy their own solitude alongside children in the environment but keeping a watchful
eye adds to the safety and enjoyment of the play space by children and their families.
Specific opportunities to connect with nature where children can encounter and engage
with a range of natural elements are also seen as critical to childrens development providing
them with rich play opportunities, and potential physical and mental health benefits (Elliott &
Davis, 2008). Elliott and Davis (2008, p. 8) note there is no doubt that natural and synthetic
playspaces promote physical health, but there are some subtle advantages to be recognised in
natural play spaces. Childrens lives in suburban Australia are often very structured in built
environments with the majority of play opportunities now being focused on hard play equipment
rather than engaging and encountering with natural objects and elements. While issues of safety
and standards dominate designing of public play spaces there are now some very well designed
play spaces that provide both structured and free play elements that incorporate natural
components. Research has shown the effect of leafy green spaces on children is very positive to
their emotional well being and beneficial to allowing children to feel calmer and less agitated.
Also socially, natural spaces enhance cooperation and more associated play as children share
objects, observe and interact about their experiences. Attention restoration theory for example
maintains that even just by being in a green place or looking at greenery, the sense of a persons
overall well being can be improved significantly through the lowering of stress levels. Many
believe children like adults crave these opportunities and in our busy lives opportunities to be in
nature are being dramatically restricted. This is especially critical at a time when children are
engaging in less and less free play outside of school and the home.

MARKET STRATEGIES/PROGRAMS
SWOT Analysis (Strength, Weakness, Opportunities, Threats) is a strategic
planning tool used to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats to a project. It
involves specifying the objective of the project and identifying the internal and external factors
that are favourable and unfavourable to achieving that objective. The strengths and weaknesses
usually arise from within an organisation, and the opportunities and threats from external
sources.

the safety of the equipments that will used by the children in order for them to enjoy their
experience in our playground. The location of the proposed business is also near on the
residential areas and school that is convenient for the researchers target market, families. The
jungle themed indoor playground educates the children about these animals and increases their
familiarity and their love for nature. Every now and then there will be an educational film
viewing and storytelling to improve the creativity and the imagination of the children.
BRAND
Bragz playhouse is a name owned by the company, and is made by the owners
only for the company. The name Bragz came from the combination of the names of the
owners. To create a new twist, the researchers added an animal mascots that represents the

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
The organizational structure will be a flat type structure that has few or no levels of
middle management between staff and executives, thus bringing the top management in direct
contact with the frontline employees and customers. The idea is that well-trained workers will be
more productive when they are more directly involved in the decision making process, rather
than closely supervised by many layers of management. Faster response time to changing
conditions and customer preferences are some of the advantages the business can benefit to.

business.
CONTRIBUTION TO THE PHILIPPINE ECONOMY

As it is a new kind of business in the area this will be the new trend in the community especially
for those families with children as young as 6 months old and as old as 12 years old this
statement can be supported by the survey that the researchers conducted.
BOOST ECONOMY- REDUCES UNEMPLOYMENT
The business aims to provide jobs for those who are unemployed in the area to help the
community to grow. The owners will prioritize those who are qualified for the job that resides
within the area to avoid wasting their time on hiring employees outside the community, in that
way, both parties will benefit.

result their involvement will increased to promote not only the indoor playground in the
community but also the community itself.
PROMOTE SENSITIVITY TO CULTURAL DIVERSITY
Social interaction through playing can break unfamiliarity, fear and any factors related to racism.
Children will learn to react positively not only in the area, but in a broader community. This will
promote a healthy relationships between different people.
INCREASE PROPERTY VALUE ATTRACT NEW BUSINESS
recreation areas can have a positive effect on nearby residential property values, and can lead to
proportionately higher property tax revenues for local governments. It can also attract new
business to compete with our firm. With that, industry will grow in the area.
ADD THE NUMBER OF TAX PAYERS
As a new business arises, the number of registered employees also rises. It means that additional
tax payers can give support to the government to help the economy grow. The business aims to
help the country by providing a good tax payer.
ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS
Small businesses, like any business, need to stand out from the crowd in order to survive. They
must serve a legitimate need in the community and do it better than their competitors. Having
multiple small businesses all striving to be unique, innovative, and better can result in a healthy
marketplace and well-served consumers

establishment but also on the society itself

living of its employees.
SOCIAL DESIRABILITY
1. Learning
Playing indoors helps children to develop their learning abilities. By putting educational
equipment indoors, children are soon learning through play, which is a fun way of helping
children to learn new information and skills. As well as this, indoor learning encourages children
to think of learning is an ongoing process instead of just something done outside.
2. Creativity
Indoor playgrounds are more focused on the creativity of the children. Unlike outdoor
playgrounds children are more likely to get distracted with the surroundings, or get tired because
of the heat of the day. Unlike indoor playgrounds amenities and different kinds of materials
unseen in outdoor playgrounds are present. Kids will be able to focus more and will be more
comfortable with where they are.
3. Health
There are numerous health benefits to playing inside indoor playgrounds. With more room to
play in, children are often more active when inside, which helps them to build strong bones and
good fitness levels, while also enabling them to burn off extra energy and calories. As well as
this, being in the in the safety of four corners, indoor playgrounds. Equipments are more safe and
coated with PVC foam and more safe for them when they play. Safe equipment means safe kids.
Safe kids means healthy children.
4. Social skills
As indoor spaces are usually less crowded than outdoor playgrounds because the space is
organized, children will be more willing to join in games and activities, while they will also be
more likely to talk to different children and make new friends. This all encourages children to
learn social skills and how to interact with other children away from adult supervision.
6. Independence
The kids see new kinds of obstacles and more equipment to play with so they tend to play for
hours without even noticing that they have been doing things all alone because of their curiosity
and fun with the equipment that really isnt in outdoor playgrounds.
7. Explore
Often indoor play equipment has a little more risk than outdoor toys. Whether it is encouraging
children to use slides they might be a little afraid to go down, or to try challenging play trails;
indoor play equipment can help children to learn to push their boundaries and become good at
risk assessment. It also teaches them to explore new games and become confident in learning to
try new things without being guided by adults.
Family bonds are improved by the sharing of leisure time. Families that recreate together tend to
be closer, more cohesive and improve their chances of staying together. This is true with both
parent-child relationships and married couples.
Families are the cornerstone in promoting well-being and healthy development in children.
TAKE CARE OF LATCH KEY CHILDREN EDUCATE CHILDREN AND ADULTS
PROVIDE CHILD CARE
Recent studies show disturbing trends about children who regularly come home to an empty
house: higher than average drop out rate, drug abuse, truancy and depression.
Good news for working parents! Many communities parks and recreation agencies provide after
school and summer child care.
In Fort Myers, Florida, 80% of the adolescents who enrolled and participated in the STARS
(Success Through Academics and Recreational Support) program improved their grades.
BUILD SELF-ESTEEM
When young people feel good about themselves they operate more effectively and productively
in our communities, families and schools. Adventure programs teach the importance of trust,
appropriate risk taking, supportive social interaction and personal challenge while creating
valuable life long memories.
Leaders are trained, developed and nurtured through leisure organizations such as teen clubs,
camps and programs.
REDUCE STRESS RELAX!
In Nationwide polls, 89% of all Americans report that they often experience high levels of stress
and 59% claimed that they feel great stress at least once a week. Positive and enjoyable
recreation experiences can decrease stress and psychological tensions. Leisure activities provide
people with the opportunity to expel energy and emotion not being released in other aspects of
their lives. Psychologists found that activities such as a walk in the woods gave a boost to the
