Bounce Houses in Outdoor Play

What ages are bounce houses suitable for?

While there is no set age for bounce houses in general, you should always check with the specific bounce house manufacturer's recommendations. Many parents believe that children under the age of 4 and over the age of 12 should not be allowed to play on bounce houses because they could get hurt or hurt other kids. Younger children may also get confused and not be able to figure out how to exit the bounce house. Some manufacturers may make a small single-child bounce house for toddlers and preschoolers.

What kind of extra features can I find in bounce houses?

Many bounce houses come with extra features like slides, tunnels, climbing walls, and other bouncy versions of classic playground equipment. Many come with ball pits, and some of the bigger ones even have kiddie pools incorporated into their designs. You'll also find bounce houses with games like tic-tac-toe, and some are even designed to look like soccer or basketball courts.

Is it cheaper to rent or buy a bounce house?

As bounce houses become increasingly popular, they've also become less expensive to purchase. However, it really depends on how much you plan to use it. If you only want it for a birthday party and don't think your child or children will use it throughout the rest of the year, renting might be a great option. But if it's something your children really enjoy, it may be a good investment that will lead to hours and hours of family fun.
