A simple bouncy castle is often called a bouncing castle. Just like the name describes: they are an inflatable with no slides, no obstacles, just a place to bounce and a basketball hoop. Inflatables of this type tend to be cheap, with most rentals or the cheapest available inflatable castles from sellers. Although many years have passed, this classic style is still very popular and still provides great fun for your party.

The main differences between different castles are style and color. Castles come in a variety of sizes with a 13′ x 13′ or 15’x15′ bouncing area and come in different designs and heights. Castles come in small sizes that take up little space, and come in sizes as large as 20′ x 20′. A small 13′ x 13′ bounce house is usually good for about 4-5 users at a time.

The number of users able to jump at one time will vary depending on the size of the user. The smaller your child is, the smaller the castle is perfect for playing with. As you get older, take your time with the big slides and obstacles. The number of users allowed is an important factor with traditional castles because they have a shared entrance and exit.
