Inflatables bring all the fun of life-size board games to the backyard, but the good times don’t end there. Individuals can also choose from inflatable versions of golf, “hamster” balls, human foosball, billiards, jousting matches, sumo wrestling, and mazes.

For businesses, schools, churches, and other organizations that want to create the appeal of a carnival, there are options for game booths and mechanical rides with an inflatable element such as bungee trampolines.

Obstacle Course

Those that are more interested in competitive endeavors can select from a wide variety of inflatable obstacle courses. Depending on the model, they can incorporate slides, tunnels, barriers and bars, along with rock climbs, pop-ups, and squeeze-through challenges.

Must Haves For An Amazing Spring BBQ

April 22, 2018 sfbadmin

Warm weather brings the prospect of family and friends hanging together in the backyard. Amidst the chatter and laughter is the aroma from the barbecue grill and the free-flowing drinks. Spring barbecues are among the best moments you can ever have as a family. The company is always great, and you could also have some background music as an accompaniment. Better yet, the noise from kids playing is sufficient proof of joy in the air.

A flashback to the previous year and you recall what a wonderful time you had. This time around, you have planned for a spring BBQ, one that will linger in memory for months to come. If that is your dream, there are party items you must have ready.

Cookware

A barbeque cannot come through without a grill or stove. Having bid farewell to the cold winter, preparing an outdoor snack is the in thing. You need a place to light a fire and a variety of meats to throw on it. Choose a grill that comes with an arsenal of grill grates to protect the meat from the coal embers. They also prevent the veggies from falling into the fire.

Charcoal

Gas grills heat up quickly and evenly cook your meat and veggies. However, charcoal-grilled beef or mutton has a distinct taste. It makes the pieces a little smoky and fires up the flavor to levels you never thought of. Try some charcoal this time around and bring variety to your BBQ this spring.

Grilling gloves

Considering the amount of heat generated, you cannot pretend to be a tough guy and handle hot meat with bare hands. Occasionally, a piece of meat will fall on the grate. As you instinctively reach for it, you risk burning your fingers. Gloves protect your hands and arms from heat. They also make it easy to grasp the hot meat and turn it over.

Some beer and wine

Barbecue parties cannot go down well without a drink. Religious affiliations aside, some of your guests could be beer drinkers. You could either opt for summer ale or light beers, but one option is most ideal. To spice things up, stock them in an ice bucket to keep the drinks chilled against the backdrop of warm weather. Moderate drinkers will appreciate some wine too. Have a few bottles in stock.

Lighting

Spring parties tend to get better when the sun sets. As cooking progresses, you need some light especially near the grilling and the seating areas. Festive lighting, the same one you use during summer, helps set the mood. Moreover, it brings a transition in people’s minds that evening has come.

Final word

Springtime comes with a warm relief and opportunity to spend time outdoors. With a barbeque in the offing, check that your cookware is in working condition. Buy some charcoal and ensure that you have gloves for handling the heat. Throw some beers and a bottle of wine as you light up the area with festive lighting. Go on; enjoy your spring backyard BBQ.

Unique Gift Ideas for Girls & Boys Birthday Parties 2017

June 20, 2017 sfbadmin

When it comes to your children, there may not be a lot of guessing on the type of gifts they want. Kids tend to be very vocal in letting parents know what they want as their first gift choices. But, for another child, it may be a bit more challenging. We’ve compiled a list of some of the hottest gift ideas for both boys and girls that might give you some grand ideas and look like a complete hero.

Girls 4-6

Pull up any Walmart or Target ad and your choices are overwhelming. However, some of the hottest trends you’ll find for girls between the ages of 4-6 is are Shopkins and anything from Disney’s movie “Frozen.” One tip to keep in mind is to contact the parents before purchasing these items since there may be a good chance they’ve already got them. Also, either one of these brands does offer a wide selection with this theme. Any young girl will be dazzled when opening these gifts as they are two of the biggest toys to sell this summer.

Girls 8-11

It seems like girls in the age category enjoy crafting. Bead kits can be found on places like Amazon, or your local craft store like Michaels. You really can’t go wrong with this type of gift at this age, as young girls enjoy working with their hands.

Girls 12-16

This age group is a bit trickier as this is also the time where gifts become pricey. If you’re looking to get a gift for a girl between 12-16, think about gift cards. Gift cards are always a good selection because the kid can buy what they want.

Boys 4-6

Kids between the age of 4-6 are practicing things like hand to eye coordination as well as their motor skills. These children tend to enjoy working with their hands and building things. Lego Blocks, toys with gears or pieces where they must think and make are most enjoyed. Another idea for your consideration is drawing or painting kits. Children of all ages love to be artistic, and at this age, their minds are free to imagine and explore. Art Boxes tend to be great presents for both boys and girls in this age category.

Boys 8-11

These little tikes are more advanced than the other the post-toddlers. They enjoy sports, video gaming and a variety of other activities. The key word is ‘active.’ This year we’ve seen many kids wanting Drones and Quadcopters to fly around. Although it’s a great gift, you may want to check with the parents as these toys can sometimes cause a problem.

Boys 12-16

This age group presents a little more challenge. But, one item that is flying off the shelves is GeekerCity’s Mini Flying RC Drone. This cool gadget changes colors, and it’s safe to use. The price point is excellent too under $20.

While these are just a few of the toys listed for boys and girls, there’s plenty of great ideas you can explore. We hope you find this blog helpful.

The Ideal Pajama Party for Kids

June 20, 2017 sfbadmin

Who can forget the fond memories of your first pajama party? When it comes to being a kid, these are one of the most exciting events you’ll ever remember. As parents, it’s our job to be sure these sleep-over gatherings are safe, fun and memorable. In this blog, we point out how to throw the pajama party of a lifetime that’s also ideal for you.

Plan Your Child’s P.J. Party Carefully

When it comes to planning your child’s pajama party, plan carefully. Things like snacks, where to sleep and who to invite are part of what makes your son or daughters slumber party a success. Invite the wrong mix of kids, or leave the activities up to your kids and his or her friends could end in disaster. Involve your children when prepping for the gathering. Make a list of what the night will entail such as watching movies, playing games and serving snacks are all a part of the organization for a big success.

Designate a Time for Pick-Up and Delivery of Each Guest

Everyone in the neighborhood has that one kid who moves in temporarily. While one extra child may not seem all that bad, if 12 kids were hanging out at your house hours after the party is over, you may get a bit cramped. Be sure to facilitate appropriate times for pick up and drop off so you can get on with your life!

Think Outside of the Box or Your Child’s Bedroom

Sleeping arrangements can be ultra-fun and easy if you think outside of your child’s bedroom. Pitch a tent in the backyard, or on the living room floor, make tepees and use decorative lights to make it more festive, throw sleeping bags on the floor, whatever you do, be sure to make it special. You’ll be much happier as your kid’s room might have a chance at staying clean!

Planning any child’s birthday party can be fun and enjoyable when planned properly. Visit places like Pinterest and Martha Stewart for more details and ideas.

If you’re anticipating a larger event, don’t hesitate to call us for our inflatable selection. We’ve got the largest selection in South Florida for Bounce House Rentals, Obstacle Courses and Waterslides. Call for your kid’s big day, you’ll be their hero.

Plan Your Party at a Local South Florida Park

May 30, 2017 sfbadmin

When it comes to South Florida, one thing you can bet on is there are a plethora of parks to plan your next party. There’s more than enough of these natural jewels are filled with tropical brush, lots of wildlife and of course plenty of acreages to set up even the biggest events. Planning your party is important especially if you project throwing your celebration outdoors. Here are some tips for you to consider if you are expected to organize at one of the many national parks nature centers.

The first thing you’ll want to do is reserve a pavilion if you plan on hosting a large enough party. Not all parks have pavilions which can make things challenging. Give yourself ample time to locate one of these structures as they tend to get booked very fast. In most cases, there is a cost associated and the fees can vary from park to park.

Next, plan your menu with the idea the food should not carry dairy or anything that can quickly spoil in hot temperatures. Many of the caterers will supply the correct equipment to keep food cold or hot. Be sure to plan accordingly for both grilling’s. Some parks will not allow outside grills so to be sure to call ahead of time.

Once you’ve secured the locations and planned the food, be sure to pay attention to signs for predators. It seems strange to mention such a thing, but we should remember safety first. Snakes and alligators are present in most of the places where these natural parks are built so take the extra precaution necessary to keep friends and family safe.

In addition to the elements at the park, don’t forget to check the weather. We Floridians understand weather can change quickly and we must remember to take care. Be sure there are solid structures or leave the party if it becomes threatening with things like lightning.

Besides the weather, animals and your planning, remember to keep America beautiful and always clean up afterward. While there’s plenty of trash cans and other devices that will help you, do not forget to bring a few extra trash bags and leave the park like it was when you got there.

Don’t forget; we’ve got the best selection of bounce houses and obstacle courses ideal for park settings. We’ll be happy to assist you with the planning.

Be sure to contact us for any further questions on making your visit at the park and planning your gathering a success.
