Little ones can spend hours bouncing up and down on bouncy castles. And with good reason. It's the perfect birthday party entertainer and a fun addition to any celebration.
Bouncy castles are an easy way for little ones to interact with one another (even the normally shy and introverted ones), have fun and loads of giggles.
Instead of going to a crowded park for a day out on a bouncy castle, they can also be easily installed in convenient places such as function rooms and multi-purpose halls. Just be sure that it's safe.
There's always a chance of getting a bump or a bruise on a bouncy castle, but as long as they are not overcrowded and used properly under supervision, the risk of accidents is also minimal.
Also know that when planning an outdoor party with no sheltered area for the bouncy castle, most companies don't offer refunds or last-minute postponement options in case of wet weather and it's considered too dangerous to allow play time, even during a drizzle.
Likewise, it's important to note the size that each bouncy castle requires and that there is sufficient space based on the measurements indicated.
