Last year, my kids and I decided that we were going to have a big yard sale to get rid of the many things in our house that we no longer need or want or use anymore. The sale was a huge success and I asked my kids what we should do with the money. They both decided that they wanted a trampoline.

I am not a huge fan of trampolines. Maybe I am just overprotective, but I have heard way too many horror stories about kids getting hurt on them. I decided to see if I could find any bouncy castles for sale. I figured that these would be a whole lot safer and I would feel better about it.

I found one that was reasonably cheap and it even had obstacle courses in it. I figured it would be great because the kids could both bounce on it, like a trampoline, or they could play games like hide and seek in it.
