The Bigger Kid Session is a focused, high‑energy inflatable event built for young jumpers—open to any child 15 and under and particularly aimed at the 8–15 age range. For three hours the site becomes a controlled playground of slides, obstacles, and bounce houses where parents may cheer from the sidelines free of charge when they are only spectating.

THE SESSION

Three hours of non‑stop inflatable play

The Bigger Kid Session is an action‑packed block of time tailored to older children, featuring multiple inflatables and high‑energy free play designed to keep 8–15 year olds engaged for the full 3‑hour session.

THE RULES

Clear age and ticketing rules keep it safe

Attendance and participation follow strict rules: anyone 15 and under may bounce; adults may only bounce if they are a paying parent/carer accompanying a child and using a parent/carer ticket; socks are required at all times and a ticket is required to use the inflatables.

THE SPECTATOR FACTOR

Parents can watch for free

Parents and carers who remain spectators do not need to pay—only those who plan to bounce are required to purchase tickets—creating a family‑friendly balance between supervision and child‑led play.

What the day feels like

What the Bigger Kid Session Feels Like

From check‑in to the final bell, the session is built as a concentrated window of play: a three‑hour run of inflatables where kids cycle through slides, obstacle courses, and open jump areas while staff supervision and simple rules maintain flow. Parents can sideline‑cheer without purchasing entry; children selected for the event range up to 15 years old and the program is especially suited to older elementary and middle‑school ages.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this session suits — and who should look elsewhere.

1
Active Kids (8–15)Ideal: this session is geared toward energetic children in the 8–15 age band who can run, climb, and jump independently under basic supervision.
2
Parents/Carers who want to superviseGood fit for parents who want to watch from the sidelines for free; if a parent or carer plans to join the inflatables they must purchase a parent/carer ticket to participate.
3
Families with very young childrenNot ideal for unaccompanied toddlers: children aged 3 and under cannot bounce unless accompanied on the inflatables by a paying parent/carer with their own ticket.
4
Adults without childrenAdults who are not accompanying children are not permitted to bounce—only adults accompanying children with the appropriate ticket can participate.
