Honestly, for that age group, variety is key. They need something physically active and a few quieter moments too. We tried the Soft play bus near me for my son’s 6th birthday, and it kept everyone busy for ages—the mix of climbing, sliding, and different games inside meant they never got bored. You could also try doing small challenges or treasure hunts on the bus if the host is up for it. Outside of soft play, things like scavenger hunts or simple relay races work, but having a contained space made it so much easier.
