Kids are better than adults at bouncing because they’re more flexible and gravity hasn’t had as much time to build up ill will toward them. Stick it to gravity with this Groupon.

Choose Between Two Options

• $45 for 10 open-bounce sessions (a $90 value)

Val-U party packages provide 10 kids, three party pros, invitations, and a T-shirt for guest of honor, who spend one hour of private playtime in the bounce rooms and 45 minutes in a private, decorated party room. Parents can also take advantage of discounts on pizza, drinks, and party favors. Additional kids may attend for $10 per child.<p>

BounceU

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.
