Standard Bounce Houses

A Standard Bounce House is a popular choice for parties and events, offering a fun and safe jumping area for kids. The typical size in our inventory is around 15' x 15', providing ample space for multiple children to enjoy at once. Larger bounce houses offer an even bigger surface area for bouncing fun. Each standard bounce house features an inflatable pad at the entrance, ensuring a soft and safe entry for riders, who must crawl under a safety net to enter the bounce zone. Additionally, most bounce houses are designed with netted windows on the sides, which promote air circulation and allow parents or guardians to easily watch their children while they play. This combination of safety features and visibility makes the standard bounce house a great option for any event! The recommended age for bounce house riders is 4 and up, but it’s important to keep similar-aged children together while playing. Mixing younger children with older ones can pose a safety risk due to size differences, so it’s always best to supervise closely and ensure everyone is having fun safely!

Combo Bouncers

A Combo Bouncer is a step up from the standard bounce house, offering a variety of activities that go beyond simple jumping. Every combo bouncer features a large bouncing area, along with an inflatable slide, which can either be located inside the unit or on the exterior. In addition to the slide, combo bouncers come with a basketball net inside the bounce area, and some units even have a second basketball net outside. Certain combo bouncers also include obstacle features for even more interactive fun. With the added climbing feature to reach the top of the slide, combo bouncers are ideal for children who can climb unassisted, making them best suited for ages 4 through 13. The variety of activities provided by combo bouncers ensures that jumpers stay entertained for extended periods, making them a fantastic choice for any event!

Toddler Bounces

Toddler Bounces are specially designed to introduce young children to the fun of inflatables in a safe and comfortable environment. These units are typically open-air, meaning there is no top, so children don’t feel closed in while they play. The features are spread out on a smaller scale, making them perfect for toddlers. Inside, you’ll find age-appropriate versions of obstacle course elements, such as small stair climbs, gentle slides, and pop-up obstacles that are themed and child-friendly. Toddler bounces also have a suitable bouncing area and, in many cases, a ball pit filled with large playground-type balls for sanitary reasons. These units are best suited for children ages 1 through 6, making them the perfect choice for younger guests at any event. Which toddler bounce house will be best for your event?
Obstacle Courses

An Obstacle Course is a dynamic inflatable that adds an element of adventure and challenge to any event. We offer two types of obstacle courses: playground obstacles and race obstacles. Playground obstacles are designed for younger children, typically ages 13 and under, and allow them to navigate through the course at their own pace, exploring and enjoying the experience at leisure. Race obstacles, on the other hand, are built for friendly competition, allowing two riders to race side by side from start to finish, making them perfect for parties with older children, teens, and even adults. As long as a child can climb unassisted, they can participate in the race obstacle course, making it suitable for ages 4 through adult.

While these two types of obstacle courses differ in purpose, they share many exciting features. Riders can crawl through tunnels, maneuver around pop-up obstacles of various shapes and sizes, navigate through horizontal tubes, climb walls, and experience exhilarating slides. Some courses even include inflatable rock climbs and wall drops for an extra thrill. Obstacle courses are not only fun but also great for building endurance and improving motor skills, making them a fantastic option for physical activity and entertainment in one!

Slides

Inflatable Slides offer a thrilling experience for events of all sizes, but they’re especially well-suited for larger gatherings where you need to move participants through quickly. With their fast-moving lines, inflatable slides ensure that everyone gets plenty of turns. There are two types of inflatable slides: wet slides, which are perfect for cooling off in the summer, and dry slides, which offer year-round fun. For extra safety, double-lane slides feature an inflatable bumper between lanes to keep riders in their own lane, preventing collisions. Additionally, safety handles are placed along the stairs, whether they’re longer rectangular steps or rock-climb-style steps, providing secure climbing for participants. Inflatable slides are best for children aged 5 and up who can climb unassisted, and they’re even great for adults, depending on the slide. We also offer smaller slides, such as the Shark Waterslide, designed specifically for younger children, making them a great choice for pre-teens and under.
Extreme Interactives

Extreme Interactive Inflatables are designed for high-energy events where you want to provide a unique and thrilling experience for your guests. These inflatables go beyond traditional bounce houses and slides, offering exciting challenges and activities that get everyone involved. Some extreme interactives require safety gear, like the Hungry Hippo or the Wrecking Ball, where participants face off in fun, competitive games. Others, like the Mechanical Bull and Bumper Cars, come with trained 3 Monkeys staff to ensure the event runs smoothly and safely. Whether you're looking for something daring or competitive, extreme interactives are perfect for older kids, teens, and adults who want an unforgettable experience at your event.
