Bounce House Rental

Can I Put My Bounce House on Grass, Cement or Gravel

Bounce houses are one of the most popular inflatable rentals for children ages 6 to 12. If you’re
considering renting one of the amusements, there are some things to keep in mind, especially
placement.
Surface
Grass is the preferred surface for a bounce house, but the entertainments can also be set up on
cement or concrete – providing the surface is smooth. The inflatables can be placed on smooth
gravel, but it’s not a good idea in terms of child safety.
Even asphalt is acceptable, providing it’s in the shade. Asphalt can reach temperatures of 125°
F. on a 75-degree day, posing a danger to children and the inflatable. Bounce houses should
never be placed near water or on a slope.
Obstacles
Safety should lead the way when setting up a bounce house. Make sure the ground where the
bounce house will set is free of sticks, rocks and other sharp objects such as sprinkler heads.
Never place a bounce house near power lines or other utilities, fences, structures, or low
hanging branches.
Keep in mind that children often stumble when they exit a bounce house and can fall. There
should be ample space on all sides of the bounce house that’s clear of any objects that
youngsters may potentially fall on.
Bounce House Supervision
Your bounce house rental will provide hours of fun for youngsters, but children should never be
left alone in the amusement. You’re going to need a responsible adult to supervise usage for
safety. Only children age 6 to 12 should be allowed in a bounce house. Youngsters under the
age of 6 don’t have the coordination, strength or balance to right themselves if they fall.
The adult will also need to ensure that children remove their shoes, jewelry and glasses before
entering and don’t have any sharp objects in their pockets that could puncture the bounce
house. Take care to limit the number of children using it at one time and ensure that
youngsters of the same height, weight and build use the device at the same time. The ripples
created by jumping can knock smaller children off their feet and lead to injury.

Food to Have at Your Southern Style BBQ

Like the U.S., South Florida is a melting pot of people, culture and customs. From catered events to backyard BBQs, food plays a central role in the festivities. There are a number of must-have dishes served, but cultural and regional influences from the diverse Florida population have added new nuances to traditional favorites.

Main Event

Meat takes center stage at a BBQ and each griller typically has their own BBQ sauce recipe. Favorite meats for the grill are ribs, pulled pork and chicken.

Vegetables

Try some corn on the cob, wrapped in aluminum foil with a generous helping of butter and left to cook on the grill. Another favorite is bell peppers stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese, cheese and bacon. Rice can be added if desired. No southern BBQ would be complete without fried okra, fried green tomatoes and collard greens. Potatoes are typically cut into chunks and grilled with any combination of spices.

Select Sides

Mac & cheese is a well-known comfort food. The southern version is marked by cheese – and plenty of it. Each cook has a preferred blend of cheeses for a delicious and filling side dish. Baked beans are a staple at southern BBQs. Onions, bacon, and rum or whisky may be combined for a unique taste treat. Individuals will also find deviled eggs that includes paprika to bacon bits.

Salads

Coleslaw, potato salad, and macaroni salad are essential. Coleslaw can be made with green or red cabbage. Potato salad encompasses potatoes, boiled eggs, onion, and mayo. It may contain a pinch of sugar, green peppers, pickles, celery, and mustard, depending on the cook’s individual recipe. Substitute macaroni for potatoes and the rest of the ingredients are similar for macaroni salad.

Bread

Cornbread, biscuits or both may be offered for eating as-is or making pulled pork sandwiches.

Desserts

From key lime pie, lemon meringue and pecan pie, the pastries play an integral role. Ambrosia is often called a salad, but typically served as a dessert. It combines whipped cream, oranges, cherries and pineapple for a delicious treat. Coconut is often included.

Beverages

Guests will be able to wash all that delicious food down with a tall glass of lemonade, sweet tea or a soft drink.

Trending Waterslide Rentals

Waterslides are the preferred rentals for two reasons – they’re fun and they’re great stress relievers. People playing on a waterslide release adrenaline and endorphins that make them feel good.

Rentals for Your Office Party

Office parties are typically tame affairs that are long on food and drinks, but short on entertainment. There are a number of rentals available to ensure seating and comfort, along with amusements that are designed strictly with fun in mind.

Chairs, Tables & Tents

One of the most overlooked essentials for any party is adequate tables and seating, whether the party is held inside or outdoors. Individuals can choose from cocktail tables, along with standard round and rectangular tables, and folding chairs. There are even child size tables and chairs for family-oriented parties. Don’t forget tents so attendees can take a rest out of the sun.

Karaoke

Anyone can create a playlist for a holiday party, but a karaoke machine offers an extra level of fun. It’s a unique form of live entertainment that connects singers with the audience in a sense of camaraderie.

Photo Booth

Adults are as eager to post photos on their social media accounts as teens. There’s nothing like a photo booth to create a memento of the party and a memory for social media. Party planners can also choose a 15-ft. snow globe for a unique photo op.

Games
