Many party supply rental outfits will gladly rent you an enclosed bouncer, and they will come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, but… does it come with a slide?
If you want that added fun dimension, then you may want to consider the Little Tikes Shady Jump N Slide Bouncer. This bouncer has an arching shade canopy to help provide all-day outdoor fun.
Kids love to attend parties because they are able to hang out and play with friends, while adults gossip, commiserate and scan the environment for good looking young single dads (or moms as the case may be). Ok, just checking to see if you were paying attention. No, you’re not reading a script from a scene of Desperate Housewives, but anyway, back to the Slide Bouncer…
Traditional bouncers, particularly those rented from party supply outfits, are completely contained, and the temperatures can get elevated inside the bouncer. Moreover, from time to time, you can run into a rental that’s grungy, smelly and what not. So, how would you like to own your own bouncer, whose cleanliness you can control? Enter the Little Tikes Shady Jump N Slide. For about the price of a rental, you can own your very own bouncer.
The Little Tikes Shady Jump N Slide bouncer sports two mesh doors, and uses hook-an-loop closures to protect the bouncing munchkins. Parents are able to keep an eye out for their little ones, as visibility is good with this mesh enclosed bouncer. So parents, sit back, relax, catch up with all your friends, and rest assured that you can easily see what the little one is up to inside that big bouncer.
But wait, there’s more… this bouncer comes with a slide! That’s right, a nice, wide, red slide. So while other bouncers on the market allow you to do but one thing -bounce- this Little Tikes Shady Jump N Slide adds another fun dimension. The slide. Kids will particularly appreciate that when it comes time to exit the bouncer, they won’t have to face to big jump just to dismount the thing. This presence of the slide may also have an added benefit: kids cycle in and out of the bouncer, rather than just settling for monotonous bouncing inside. The more movement the kids end up doing, generally the more they have. And in this case, what’s not to love about a big, wide, red slide?
The Little Tikes Shady Jump N Slide attraction measures 140 by 104 by 84 inches. The aforementioned is equipped with two mesh doors, and closures are the hook-and-loop kind. The arched canopy design keeps the interior cool, while giving head clearance for would be bouncers. The jumper is held in place by stakes and inflated by a heavy-duty blower with GFCI. Thease all come with your purchase, as does a repair kit and a storage bag. Made from puncture-resistant material, this bouncer should give your kids (and no doubt the neighbor’s kids as well) lots of fun for years to come. Recommended age: six years old and up, but no one over five feet should attempt jumping inside.
Parents love that it is easy to construct and equally easy to take down. They also note that the motor is quiet. A single mom also noted that she didn’t have problems, as it was simple to fold and roll up.
The thing that parents found against the jumper is that the velcro closure on the back of the bouncer opens really easy. This may not be a concern for older kids, but those energetic munchkins under two years old may not realize the velcro problem and go crashing into it. One parent intimated that she might add some industrial strength stuff to make it harder to exit.
All in all, parents who own this jumper are extremely pleased with it given its ease of deployment and storage, as well as its ability to bring out the giggles in everyone who gets to play in it. What more could one ask for?
