Breaking a Guinness World Record!
Kids’ People were lucky enough to witness history and to be part of it! The Kids’ People team were called to an exciting location where more than 600 kids made breaking a Guinness World Record very fun indeed! CITV’s show “Scrambled!” was there to film the whole day. …..What was the challenge?! Nothing less than trying to break the record of “Most People Doing ‘The Floss’ Dance Move Simultaneously”. Could this be any more fun?!
Our very important role
The record specialists from “Officially Amazing” needed Kids’ People to be the very important invigilators, involved in all the action as well as containing the kids in one place and making sure everything ran as smoothly as possible. All the kids plus their teachers were situated on the school playground, as we needed a big space to fit them all. The Kids’ People team had to do more than helping with the organisation, as we were trusted with a very important mission; to become the assistants of the record specialists. Each and every steward had to make sure everyone was following the rules to make the record valid. The rules were simple: Do the floss for one-minute straight, non-stop. If there was anyone not doing the floss, stopping during the length of the challenge or even doing the floss the wrong way, they unfortunately had to be eliminated from the final count.
The cameras are rolling!
The ITV crew at the ready, kids in position, cameras rolling, the stopwatch ready to count a whole minute and… go! All the students did the floss like there was no tomorrow; all excitement, all energy. Some of them stopped, others didn’t do it exactly right… would it be enough to break the record?! After 10min of waiting and counting all the valid numbers, the results were in… They broke the record by far! Over 600 kids did the challenge perfectly, beating the last record with 350 people approximately. It was a complete success and Kids’ People were so grateful and excited to be a part of it!
“Everything went very well! The staff were on time and found the location which is always a bonus! They were all very helpful. Thank you.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Lucy and Sophie from Kids’ People. They were not only incredibly organised leading up to the party but made sure we had everything set up and ready for the children’s arrival. We have used other companies in the past, but it was so refreshing to have two woman who genuinely cared about the event. Having seen the references from other big companies too, it was an easy choice. Thank you, Lucy and Sophie, for making the day so special.”
“I am really happy with how the event went, and very impressed with the calibre of the staff. They did a tremendous job all day and it all ran very smoothly which was fantastic. I couldn’t have asked for more and certainly have no issues to report. The team here were also pleased with it all and commented on how slick and organised it all was! So, extremely happy thank you, and excited for the remaining three events!”
“I thought the event was first class and there had clearly been a lot of effort put into getting the right people to staff the event so a huge thanks for that. I thought the Santa and associated gifts were fantastic, with his set dressing for the grotto very atmospheric. The Balloons were excellent too and helped showcase the elevated nature of the party this year. The feedback from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive, so, that’s a huge thanks from us to you for an excellent job organising the event.”
