Bouncing Castle

Bouncy houses, also known as jumping castles, moon bounces, and inflatable trampolines. It’s an inflatable structure specially designed for children’s entertainment, allowing a group of kids to play together.

A bounce house can provide your kids with a variety of fun activities, such as bouncing, climbing, hide-and-seek, water gun games, and so on. Its inflatable design and durable materials make it a worthwhile investment for both personal use and rental businesses.

The cost of renting a bouncy house depends on the size, design, and time length. For instance, the average cost of renting a medium-sized bounce house for 4 hours is about $200.

Normally, kids aged 3-8 years old are suitable for playing in an 8ft x 8ft bounce house. For kids above 8 years, a large-sized bounce house (10ft x 10ft or more) is a better option.

Although most inflatable products feature an enclosed structure, they can still slightly deflate over time. The breathability of the materials, the aging of the seams, and other various factors will lead to deflation.

The cost of inflating a bounce house can be calculated with the formula: Power x Time x Electricity Rate. For instance, if a 500-watt blower works for 5 hours, the cost of electricity would be 0.5 kW x 5 h x $0.15 (average rate in the US) = $0.375 dollars.

Normally, you can’t wear shoes in a bounce house. Not only because the hard soles may harm other participants but also because they can damage the materials, especially the shoes with pointed parts.

A tarp is a necessary addition to put under a bounce house. It can protect the bounce house from sharp debris on the ground and keep the bottom clean and dry. Some tarps can also increase the friction force of the bottom.

Most bouncy houses are only allowed for kids. The bouncy houses for adults should be large and heavy-duty enough to bear the weight of adults (at least above 15 ft x 15 ft).

Although the water slides of a bounce house are made of durable materials and have side walls, it’s necessary to make sure the house is under supervision by an adult.
