Great Family Outdoor Vacations

You don’t have to go far in the great State of Florida to find a venue to enjoy a family outdoor vacation and it doesn’t mean packing up the SUV with camping gear and preparing for a siege by insects. There’s plenty to do outdoors and all families need to bring is a supply of sunblock.

Walt Disney World

This is the first venue that people think of for a family vacation and most head to the Magic Kingdom. Families can spend the day outside visiting with their favorite Disney characters, riding the Space Mountain rollercoaster, travel the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, explore the Haunted Mansion, and get wet on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride.

Captiva Island

Quiet and serene, it’s a prime location for gathering seashells, birdwatching and spending a leisurely day. For those that book with one of the many nearby resorts, there’s golf courses and tennis courts, pools, bike rentals and water sports.

Everglades National Park

It’s the biggest sub-tropical wilderness in the U.S., with ranger-led programs, trails for spotting wildlife, tram tours and airboat tours.

Fort Wilderness Resort

For a unique experience, try Disney’s campground. Campers can explore walking trails, bike, canoe and kayak. There’s plenty of swimming opportunities, horseback riding, fishing, wagon rides and arcades, along with tennis and basketball. Bring the RV or camp in a cabin.

Anna Maria Island

Slow down with the laid back pace of the island. Visitors can bike, fish, cruise the barrier island, snorkel, explore a pirate ship, or take a dolphin-watching tour.

So Much to Do

There are dozens of family vacation opportunities in Florida where every member of the family can get outside, explore natural wonders and enjoy day trips to a myriad of amusements. Playing in the outdoors doesn’t mean giving up modern comforts and conveniences.

8 Must-See Superhero Movies

Love Avengers Endgame? Here’s 8 Other Must-See Superhero Movies

The superhero movie genre is one of the biggest in Hollywood and it’s not just comic book fans that eagerly await each new release. They’re a good way to escape into a universe where the good guys win. They satisfy the needs and desires of people seeking social justice. They’re also just good fun.

An exceptional crop of superhero movies was released during the past few years that have found favor, but not all superheroes are appreciated as such at first glance. The following are superhero movies that everyone should see that span the decades.

Thor: Ragnarok

With the release of the film in 2017, fans were treated to a comic book superhero that was the embodiment of Norse mythology, amazing special effects, great music, and a rare helping of humor.

Black Panther

Starring Chadwick Boseman, the 2018 film was the first of the genre to feature a black superhero. Set in a fantastically advanced culture, the character’s female guards absolutely stole the scenes in which they were featured.

Wonder Woman

The 2017 film was the ultimate girl power movie starring Gal Gadot as the D.C. Comics superhero. The film was a unique blend of history and myth combined with one of the strongest female role models of all time.

Captain Marvel

One of the biggest of the 2019 superhero movie releases, it has Brie Larson in the title role instead of the traditional male figure, who gets caught in a conflict of galactic proportions between two alien civilizations. It’s the first female-led superhero film by Marvel.

Blade

An oldie but a goodie, the film features Wesley Snipes as an ancient Dhampir that hunts down evil vampires to protect the human race. It was the first in a trilogy and its success provided motivation for Marvel’s following succession of superhero movies.

Aquaman

The 2018 movie stars handsome hunk, Jason Momoa, who must stop his evil brother, save Atlantis, and take his rightful place as ruler of the sea. The underwater world that was created for the film is stunning.

Host an End of the School Year Party with a Waterslide

The end of the school year means moms get to sleep in and kids are happy to see the end of homework for the next three months. To truly celebrate, try hosting an end of the school year party with an inflatable waterslide.

Kids of all ages love water slides and South Florida Bounce has more than 60 waterslides in multiple themes to accommodate youngsters of all ages. Kids don’t get all the fun, though, parents can use them, too. South Florida Bounce is the home of the “Hurricane,” a 40-foot tall water slide that’s the tallest free-standing water slide available.

It doesn’t matter whether youngsters are fans of pirates or superheroes, options are available to make anyone happy. Smaller, 13-foot water slides are offered for younger kids that allow them to have all the fun of the bigger slides. Individuals can choose a stand-alone water slide or create a complete wet and dry wonderland with bounce houses, obstacle courses, interactive games, and carnival games.

Water slides have become one of the most popular party features across the nation. They’re a great way to beat the heat and are especially welcome for homes without a pool. They provide all the fun of a waterpark outing without leaving the comfort of home.

They’re also a great way for kids to release all that pent up energy, tire them out while getting fresh air and exercise, and get them to take a break from electronic devices. Even better, parents can get in on the fun and spend quality bonding time with the kids.

The first waterslide was introduced in 1923 and was actually a water toboggan. Today’s fun seekers need only go as far their phone to book their South Florida Bounce inflatable waterslide for an end of school summer celebration party.

Sun Protection Done Right

Millions of people flock to sunny locales every year to catch some rays, but many find a painful sunburn instead when they don’t take appropriate precautions. The most important rule everyone should remember is to apply sunscreen anytime they go outdoors. The UVB and UVA rays emitted by the sun are always present, even on cloudy days.

UVB rays are the primary cause of sunburn and play a role in skin cancer, but UVA rays are equally dangerous. They penetrate below the outer skin level, damage DNA, hasten the aging process, and play a significant role in skin cancer. There are a variety of precautions that can be taken to have fun in the sun while minimizing the risk.

Know the Danger Zone

The sun is strongest between 10 a.m.-4 p.m., thus increasing the risk of sunburn. Try finding activities in the shade or in filtered sunlight during those times. Babies age 6 months and younger should be covered and kept in the shade at all times.

Sunscreen

Sunscreen should be applied at least every two hours and every hour by those that are swimming or sweating. The SPF numbers tell how many minutes it will take the sun’s rays to begin reddening the skin, assuming that the sunscreen is applied exactly as directed. Use a high SPF

However, it’s important to understand that the lighter the skin tone, the quicker the skin will turn red. Apply 15-30 minutes before going outdoors and don’t forget to apply lip balm with a minimum of SPF 30.

Sunglasses

Eye protection is particularly important on the beach or on a boat. Sand and water reflect the sun’s rays and increase the potential of damaging eyes and getting sunburned. People have permanently damaged their vision by spending several hours on the water without sunglasses. Choose a pair of chic shades that provide 99-100 percent UV absorption.

Clothing

Long-sleeved shirts and long pants of breathable material provide an added layer of protection. Tightly woven and dark colored clothing block more of the sun’s rays. There are also garments made of specialized sun-protective fabric.

Hats

Accessorize every outfit with a wide-brimmed hat that shades the eyes, face and ears.

Play it Safe

Sunburn is painful, damages the skin, and can lead to skin cancer down the road. Individuals that take certain medications that make them more sensitive to the sun should use additional care. Fun in the sun is even more enjoyable when the proper precautions are taken and sun protection is done right.

Uniquely Florida Mother’s Day Gifts

Millions of children are racking their brain for a unique Mother’s Day gift, but they may not be thinking far enough afield. There’s a wealth of unique gifts for Moms living in Florida, along with those that find themselves transplanted to other locales around the world. Here are some suggestions to make Mom’s day extra special.

Key Lime

Floridians are serious about key lime and there are a number of shops throughout the state that will deliver a basket of lime-based goodies direct to Mom ranging from lotions to sweets. Or you can take her for key lime pie on a stick.

Garden Gladiators

Florida is home to some of the most beautiful and diverse botanical gardens and arboretums in the U.S. Consider an outing to one of the state’s many gardens specializing in tropical plants, roses, orchids, herbs or collections from six continents.

Sports

Let Mom display her team spirit with jerseys, jackets, sweatshirts and hoodies, totes, bags and footwear from the Miami Dolphins, Jacksonville Jaguars or Tampa Bay Bucs.

Mystery and Puzzle Fans

Take Mom into a real-life mystery that’s part puzzle and part scavenger hunt to locate clues in an hour-long escape room adventure. No one will be disappointed with one of these adventures.

The Need for Speed

For the Mom that doesn’t believe in slowing down, take her on a Walt Disney Driving Experience. Mom can take a ride-along for six laps with a professional driver in an exotic high-performance car.

Dolphins and Manatees

Mom can swim with dolphins at Discovery Cove, Dolphins Plus, Gulf World Marine Park, and Miami Seaquarium. If Mom is a fan of manatees, adopt one for her at Save The Manatee that works to preserve the gentle, endangered national treasures of Florida.

Bounce House and Slides

For a day at home that lets Mom rest or join the fun as she desires, South Florida Bounce has water slides, bounce houses, interactive games, photo booths to commemorate the day, and food machines so she doesn’t have to cook.

Keep Your Pet Safe in the Florida Heat

Millions of people flock to Florida each year to spend time in the summer sun and they often bring their pets with them. What you may not realize is that the very warmth you seek can make your pet ill or even kill them if you don’t take appropriate precautions.

A majority of the pets that people take with them are dogs, but cats, birds, fish, ferrets and even pet pigs can experience heat exhaustion and death if left in a car, truck or motorhome for even a short length of time on a mildly warm or humid day.

Animals don’t sweat – they can only pant to cool themselves off. Vehicle temperatures can elevate by 20 degrees in just 10 minutes and increase exponentially. Leaving a window cracked doesn’t help and can actually exacerbate the situation. The following tips will help keep your pet safe in the Florida heat.

Never leave an animal in a parked car, even for 5 minutes
Don’t walk pets on paved surfaces or on hot beach sand – it burns their feet
Avoid walks and playtime during the warmest and most humid parts of the day
For pets with medical or breed-related conditions, be aware that even a short walk can endanger them
Always make sure your pet has a sufficient supply of fresh clean water, plenty of shade and a non-paved place to rest
Provide your pet with access to air conditioning – they need it even more than you do
A hair trim is fine to help your pet in the heat, but never shave them – they’ll sunburn
Regular grooming can help pets shed loose hair that can contribute to overheating
If you see a pet trapped in a vehicle on a hot day, notify authorities and stay there until help arrives

Humidity adversely affects pets as much as heat and Florida experiences its share of both. The danger increases when the two are combined. You and your pet can enjoy your sojourn in Florida by taking appropriate precautions to keep them safe and factoring in the weather conditions for the time of year you visit.

Ditch the TV and Try these Ideas

Picture a TV customized to the size of your outdoor living space. There’s no fighting for position to get the best view – everyone can easily see every moment of the action. While that day hasn’t arrived, the next best things are the bounce houses, water slides, carnival games and mechanical rides available at South Florida Bounce.

Themed bounce houses are available to pique the interest of all ages and they can be combined with water slides to transform any yard into a wonderland for the young and young at heart. South Florida Bounce has the tallest free-standing water slide with a 40-feet drop that will thrill and amaze. Dry slide options are also available and can be paired with bounce houses and obstacle courses.

For thrill-seekers, tune your outdoor “TV” to an adventure channel with an activity that combines the fun of a trampoline with the excitement of bungee jumping. You can also choose a four-sided rock wall for climbing, an inflatable corn maze, a giant hamster ball course, or human foosball. You can also choose an inflatable 9-hole golf course, interactive space or sumo arenas, gladiator jousting, water balloon wars, and the ever-popular skee ball.

South Florida Bounce lets you bring the fun of a carnival midway to your back yard. Add ambiance with a bubble machine while friends and family try their luck at the dunk tank. Multiple game booths are offered, along with “Plinko,” a cash cube, and a trackless train.

Keep the masses fed with food options that capture the look, feel and scents of a fair with machines to create snow cones, cotton candy, and popcorn. Hot dog rollers and steamers provide a more substantial offering to keep everyone energized.

You can take a break with a selfie booth featuring a variety of props and backgrounds. Even better, choose the innovative new “strip” photo booth that utilizes state-of-the-art digital technology. It’s the same type of photo booth that’s become a popular must-have at celebrity gatherings.

You can’t clutter your outdoor space with a Godzilla-sized TV, but you can fill it with the live action of bounce houses, water slides, a myriad of interactive games, rides, and the excitement of a carnival. The many options available at South Florida Bounce enable anyone to set their channel for adventure.
