Bounce Houses For Kids – Toddlers
August 26, 2009 – 2:57 pmThere are bounce houses that are not the giant play areas for crowds to jump in, but are designed specifically for toddlers and very young children. These bounce house inflatables can be set up in a basement or living room or play room and may cost as little as $45.
One is called the Castle Bouncer, which is a small castle inflatable bouncer that a 3 year old can play in every day. It’s small at only 85 inches by 76 inches. This bounce house comes with a set of balls. It can be ordered online.
Bounce House Review
These small indoor bouncers for young children and toddlers have been widely used and therefore there are many parents who have commented on their safety and practicality as well as their usefulness and durability. An inflatable bounce house can be a great place for a child to exercise instead of sitting in front of the TV.
- One family who decided to buy an inflatable bounce house for their 2 year old said they used it every day. After a couple weeks the inflatable bouncer got a hole, but they said it was easily repaired. Some bounce house owners have commented that your toy should not be overly filled because that can make them susceptible to damage.

Another mother has commented on buying one and being so happy with it that she has bought more than one over the years. She says that a bouncer, if used daily or very frequently, will last about a year, but since the indoor varieties are so inexpensive, under $100, it’s not an issue to replace them because children absolutely love them.
There have been a few parents who were unhappy with their purchase because they also had pets. Their bouncers had frequent holes due to pets entering the inflatable toy and causing them to deflate. It seems that if you have dogs and cats in the same space where you want to put a bouncer, this will not be a good idea.
An Indoor/Outdoor Bounce House
A very famous brand for small to medium bounce house trampolines and castle bounce houses is the one that is made by Little Tikes, and the most popular appears to be the 5 in 1 Super Sports Inflatable Bouncer. It can be used indoors or outdoors, but if it will be for indoor usage then be sure that you have sufficient space because it is 10 feet by 10 feet by 7 feet high.
Most owners have found it to be best outside. But it may be the best activity centre in the house because it includes 2 basketball goals, 6 baskets along the walls, soccer and hockey goal and a volleyball net suspended in the middle. Be careful with the hockey sticks. This is good for children over 3 years of age. Don’t forget that children in bounce houses, no matter if they are completely enclosed and have mesh netting, will require adult supervision.
