The Goofinology Philosophy
The Goofinologists believe in the power of laughter, fun and of course, GOOFINESS. We strive to provide excellent, interactive entertainment to ensure that your special day will never be forgotten.
"The short time that we are children should be filled with laughter and joy. We should never forget what it is like to be a child and to have the ability to see the delight in the more simpler things in life. Sometimes we forget what it's like to experience simple joy and laughter."
