When planning a party or a large special event, the big question always comes up. “What are we going to do with all the kids?” Maybe it’s your child’s birthday party, and you are looking to do something they will never forget. Or maybe it’s a community event, and you are looking for something that will appeal to all children attending. No matter the occasion, a Bounce House can be a wise choice, with some proper planning.

A Bounce house is a large inflatable structure that is entirely enclosed, allowing for users to “bounce” around the inside safely. Children tend to love them, and many times adults enjoy a bit of fun in them as well. Due to their larger size, they can fit several users inside at once. They come in many shapes and sizes, ranging from simple rectangles, to large castles.

Before you rent a Bounce House you need to determine what your needs are. Take into account how many children will be attending, what their ages are, if any adults will want to join the fun, etc. If there are going to be babies or small children attending, it may be worth renting a small “Baby” Bounce House as well, to prevent possible collisions with older children. Also evaluate how much space is available on the property, as Bounce Houses can be quite large.

Next do some shopping around, try to find a good price. For a standard size Bounce House, it should be around $100 US Dollars for 5 hours, and that should include setup and tear-down. Also be sure you try to find one with an inflatable ramp, the last thing attendees are going to want to be doing are lifting kids in and out of the House all day long. All in all, bounce house are a great way to add fun to any occasion.
