Fun with inflatables!


If there is anything Singapore needs more of, it's indoor playgrounds so we don't have to get hot and sweaty and burnt. And last weekend, we had a ball of a time at an indoor playground. There was a fair taking place at the Singapore Expo where there were stalls and at one end, there was a big area occupied by many different types of inflatables - bouncy slides, bouncy playhouse, obstacle course, etc. It cost just $5 for half hour or $10 for unlimited play. Woo hoo!! We first went there on Friday night and then again on Sunday. The kids played for some 3 hours on Sunday, climbing, crawling, jumping; it's amazing how much energy kids have. After 3 hours of standing around, my body was aching! Unfortunately, the playground is not a permanent fixture so I can only hope that such fairs at the Expo will be a regular event.

Those bouncy inflatables are not only fun to play on but they're also safe for the kids.Moreover, they're portable, too. Just deflate and keep or move. Whoever came up with this idea has got brains for kids.

I don't believe how expensive it is to have a go at these bouncy things!!! We get it for free here whenever they have family fun days. You can hire a bouncy castle for $80 a day for a birthday party too. I notice kids love to bounce a lot, which is why a trampoline is a 'must-have' in an Aussie backyard.

The cheap basic bouncy costs $200 to rent for a few hours and anyway we don't have big gardens to place these things
