Bounce Houses/Jumper Tents


Yesterday Tyler went to a birthday party with all the kids from his football team. The parents had rented a big jumper with a slide for the kids to play in. During the course of playing, the tent started in deflate while the kids were in it and climbing the slide. Because it was deflating, those that were in it fell and hit the ground. One of the kids broke her arm and another was taken with a bad back injury. Tyler was one of those that were in it and fell and hit his jaw on the pavement. The paramedics were called and they checked out everyone that was in it for injuries. Luckily he is ok, he just has a swollen jaw that is black and blue. No broken bones or serious injury. The scary thing is that because the Soccer Queen had 2 games, I was not able to be at the party and they did not call to tell me anything had happened. My sister in law picked him up and that is when he told her what happened.

OMG! I'm so glad his injuries weren't more serious like some of the others! Poor kiddos! Here I thought the most dangerous thing about those things was the big kids jumping and crashing into the itty bitty kids!
