JumpStreet's vast trampoline arena delights jumpers of all ages with a room covered top to bottom in springy surfaces and safe padding, cultivating a fun way to unleash pent-up energy and engage in physical activity. In addition to the bounce-inducing ground, tilted trampolines stretch midway up the wall for extended propulsion possibilities and airborne orations of the Gettysburg Address. Visitors aged 8 or older can gravitate toward the dodge-ball courts, where they strategize, aim, and propel soft orbs at opponents while undulating on an unstable surface. With fun passes, older kids can also cling to a bucking mechanical bull as it threatens to toss them onto the foam.
Food Tours of America pairs local cuisine with hefty servings of history. Spinning anecdotes and engaging tales, guides lead walking tours that let groups sample Dallas's eclectic culture firsthand. The trips wind through Uptown locales such as West Village and State Thomas Historic District, home to structures dating to the 1880s Victorian period. Along the way, groups pause to sample cuisine from restaurants such as Primo’s Tex-Mex Grille, Bread Winners Cafe, Bailey’s Uptown Inn, Baboush, I Fratelli, Red Mango, and Ketchup Burger Bar. Food Tours of America's staffers also incorporate tours into private events, such as birthday parties and birthday-party reenactments.
Shecky's Girls Night Out makes planning a social outing between friends easy with its dozens of fashion, jewelry, and beauty product displays and samples to peruse.

Take a peek at one of Shecky’s past events, where, like the locker room at a WNBA game, men are conspicuously absent.
Years before founding In Home Wine Tasting 4 You, Jeannine Jiral was just a girl of 5, living in small-town Texas, watching her family ferment various fruits into homemade alcohol. From those days she knows how much skill it takes to make a delectable drink. Now she puts that knowledge to use, helming In Home Wine Tasting 4 You's knowledgeable servers as they pour flights of quality wine suited to each patron's taste and style.
Before hosting custom parties, patrons fill out a questionnaire to declare their white and red preferences and ability to play Stairway to Heaven on half-full glasses. Then personnel supply the libations, including wine, beer, or a combination of the two, as well as tasting notes, food-pairing suggestions, and tips for hosting future tasting parties. Through its partnership with The Wine Therapist, In Home Wine Tasting 4 You also outfits clients with wine-drinking accessories such as tumblers, glasses, and cheese boards, and can host tastings for those who don't want to throw a party in their own home or who have recently misplaced their pet cobra.
Since 2007, the Robots-4-U team has been teaching kids a program of STEM—science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Kids absorb skills and knowledge through entertaining interactions with instructors, other campers, and robot kits. The camp maintains a 16:1 student to instructor ratio, ensuring kids receive the proper amount of individual attention. Campers build robot kits comprising a brain unit and sensory appendages, which replicate seeing, hearing, touching and reading minds. Once the bots are assembled, kids enter their creations into racing, dancing, and battle-bot challenges.
