2. Gathering information on the rental situation of surrounding stores can facilitate later negotiation of lease contracts with the lessor.

3. Conducting a survey on children's maternal and child stores, children's catering, kindergartens, and preschool education and training institutions in the vicinity can provide insight into the relevant market situation.

4. Evaluating the coverage of children in maternity and baby stores, community stores, and surrounding streets is crucial in understanding the target population.

5. Analyzing the operations of other surrounding competitors and evaluating their advantages and weaknesses is important to improve the competitiveness of the children's park.

6. Investigating the number of school-age children nearby, family composition, parents’ salary levels, household consumption levels, etc., can help in determining the number of potential customers the children's paradise can cover.

Additionally, analyzing the frequency of family outings and entertainment activities, determining the consumption power of parents in the community, and studying the affordability of the target audience for children's parks are all essential components of evaluating local consumption levels.

4）Survey of consumption intention

Conducting a comprehensive survey of customers' consumption intentions helps to make operations more efficient and targeted when selecting equipment, setting ticket prices, and developing subsequent business operations. Surveying customers allows entrepreneurs to fully understand their preferences and priorities, consequently improving the overall customer experience.

Questions relevant to children may include: What type of rides do you prefer? What snacks and drinks do you typically purchase at the park? Understanding children's preferences can enable you to make informed decisions regarding equipment selection, ride design, and amenities.

For parents, questions may include: Are you willing to bring your children to the park? How frequently do you usually take your children to play? What is your acceptable consumption standard? Gaining insights into the daily lives of parents can help businesses appropriately target the overall experience, improve customer flow, and determine ticket pricing.

3）Conduct equipment manufacturers

An on-site visit to the manufacturer's facility is also recommended to assess the production plant's capability and capacity, the quality control process, and the manufacturer's overall commitment to quality.

By choosing a reliable and qualified manufacturer, entrepreneurs can ensure that their children's playground equipment is reliable and safe, compliant with appropriate regulations, and can support the business's long-term growth. Furthermore, an effective after-sales service can help maintain equipment, reduce maintenance and repair costs, and provide additional support when needed. Therefore, choosing the right equipment manufacturer is a critical decision for the success of a children's playground business.
