I am considering buying a quite large bouncy castle for my 5 year old daughter for the summer holidays.  Will it be a one horse wonder and cause me a lot of extra work moving it to save the lawn dying and storing it through rainy periods?  If anyone has any experience, will the pro's outweigh the con's, as children seem to have so much fun, I hope it may entertain her for hours with friends and it's good exercise.  Any tips from personal experience would be great.  Many thanks.

we had two cos they kept punchering, and if u dont get a big one they topple on there sides easily which kids discover and do a lot!

Both of ours were only a 2 day wonder and once they discovered how to topple it by jumping at the walls it soon punctered. and my daughter was 3 and a half at the time!

I agree with twiglet.  Look into buying a decent size trampoline.  I bought my girls (5 and7) an 8 foot one with safety netting and have never looked back.  It builds up their stamina and knocks them out at night time.  We paid about �180 for it from a specialised firm my husband found on the net.  Worth every penny.

yeah, agree, 2 different friends have trampolines and they are much better, especially if u have the netting around it. Toys r us sell them with the netting
Trampolines - sound OK but I have heard of 2 friends who have broken neck/back recently. Take care.
