We are throwing my daughter and nephews birthday party together she is turning 2 and he is turning1.......?

Question

We have decided we are gonna get a bouncy house and have a lil cookout, cake and presents but we have a HUGE family and there is expected to be like 30 kids there and 1/2 of them are big kids(5-9) and the other 1/2 range from 1-4!! Now at a previous family party we had to stop the "big"kids from jumping just to allow the little ones to because the big kids were playing too ruff but that caused havoc because there was nothing else for the "big" kids to actually do and when it came time to take the little ones out and let the bigs kids jump again all the lil ones began to cry. So does anyone have ideas on what to do..like should i get 2 sepreate bouncers or what else can i do to keep the big kids busy while the little ones jump and vice versa.

Answer 1

games for bigger kids...maybe water balloon games!!! have fun!! Also make sure u have tylenol on hand..lol

Answer 2

If you can afford it, get 2. We had the same problem with my daughter's party. We just couldn't afford 2. Good luck & have fun.

Answer 3

personally i have a huge family too and we have problems with the older ones being too rough just in general so i say get the bouncy thing for the little ones and have other games for the bigger ones and tell them they cannot jump in it unless all the little ones are out and you are not taking the little ones out just for them to jump it is a party for the little ones birthdays and they should be the ones to enjoy it the most good luck!
