Keep Your Child Active

By Richardo Manning


Let's face it. Bouncy houses are fun. Super fun. But for most grown-ups, they also come with that sickening feeling in the pit of your stomach. As great as it is to watch your kid bounce around with that gleeful smile on his or her face, it's equally awful to have to pull them out crying from some kind of accident. As fun as bouncy houses can be, they are undeniably dangerous. So do you just make them stay out forever? That's up to you. If you do decide to let them go on bouncing, here are a few tips to minimize the risk and keep your babies safe!

Every year at a younger and younger age, children own electronics or even smart phones that are able to download games and applications to entertain them. Children no longer have any obligation to go anywhere for anything as they can do practically anything they want via the Internet. As they have lost the motivation to get up and go, they have also started to lose interest.

As it may be difficult for you to relate to their childhood, here are a few tips and tricks to be able to keep your children active and healthy before they even have time to realize it.

Establish Rules

Make sure you know the accommodation limits of each bouncy house. If only six kids are allowed in at a time, make sure that no more than six kids play at a time. It is also a good idea to run through some of your own rules with your kids. For example, you could tell them no fighting, no bouncing into other kids on purpose, no lying on the ground, no bouncing off the walls. Whatever makes you feel more comfortable!

It is also important to make sure that only kids of the same size are playing together in the bouncy house. Larger kids tend to be more reckless and often don't realize how fragile their smaller peers are. Even responsible older kids could cause serious damage to smaller bodies if they lose control and fly into a smaller child. The same goes for adults. No matter how careful you are, accidents can easily happen. In the battle between adult body and toddler body, the child will lose.

Although less a problem for kids, it still might be smart to make sure your kids aren't wearing any jewelry, hair pins, or anything that could hurt them or other children in case of a collision. Chopsticks in the hair, for example, would be a very bad idea.

For special events and activities, consider renting an inflatable bounce house in Utah. Not only are they safer than trampolines as they provide cushioning to fall on, but they are also clean. Children and adults alike love to use them and the bouncy houses keep you working out while still having a great time with family and friends. Don't reward your children with food, healthy or otherwise, when they have won something. Reward them with something fun that will continue to keep them active - such as an inflatable rental house in Utah.
