What You'll Get
A playground can be the site of a first birthday party, a first paper-airplane flight, and a first doctoral dissertation on the geothermal impact of teeter-totters. Make a scientific breakthrough while breathlessly jumping with today's Groupon for BounceU. Choose from the following options:
- For $19, you get five passes for open bounce (up to a $39.75 value). All children must be accompanied by an adult, and adults and non-walking infants enter for free if accompanied by a paying child. This Groupon may not be used for Parent's Night Out.
- For $22, you get one session of Create and Bounce Art Camp for kids ages 4–11 (a $49 Value).
BounceU transports kids to an inflatable, climate-controlled playground, where they can bounce from side to side and from up to across. Your five passes are valid toward any combination of open bounce sessions scheduled at various times throughout the week or family bounce nights every Friday from 6–8 p.m. (a $7.95 value for the first child, $6.95 for each additional sibling). Kids can imagine they're synchronized leapers in Michael Flatley's Riverbounce as they carom around the inflatable stadium, expending energy with every leap. Adults are welcome to act like eight-year-olds and join the vivacious youngsters in the playground, where they can duel with the foam-shooting equipment or clamber on climbing structures. The attentive BounceU staff monitors the playground at all times, ensuring the facilities are safe and clean. On family bounce night, parents can order a large pizza and a two-liter of soda (not included in this Groupon) so that the kids can spend dinner imagining they're Sir Lancelot and his steed invading the dominion of trampolines.
Create and Bounce Art Camp lets kids let out wiggles during school breaks and holidays. The full-day sessions include plenty of bounce time tempered by imagination-boosting creative activities. Each bouncy camper will receive lunch, snacks, and the daily-recommended amount of fun, games, and newly forged friendships.
Must fill out a waiver to bounce. If under 18, a parent or guardian must sign waiver. Socks are required.

About BounceU Charlotte and Matthews
Inflated structures, slides, and games fill the climate-controlled environs of the numerous BounceU locations that speckle the nation. At each site, staff members closely monitor all activities as little ones traverse obstacle courses or pull on oversized inflatable boxing gloves. The crew also invites parents to join in on the fun, letting them bounce alongside their kids or make sweeping edicts from atop a bouncy-castle throne. In addition to open sessions, the indoor-play haven sets the stage for the Preschool Playdate program, where instructors lead games and activities. Special events include family-bounce night, which lets parents join in the bouncing or relax in the party room and do grownup things, such as eat marshmallows with a knife and fork.
