Harrison and Alex love nothing more than playing on bouncy castles, so we were absolutely thrilled to be invited to Hatton Country World last weekend for the BeBop fun event organised by Toyz World.
In a field away from the main shopping village were two awesome bouncy castles, ready for a thorough testing from the kids. I spent a lovely couple of hours chatting to Zena from Zena’s Suitcase and Zoe from Mama Geek in the sunshine whilst the kids burnt off plenty of energy on the bouncy castles and kicking the footballs about.
The first bouncy castle was a 13.5ft fortress. It really was the ultimate all in one bouncy castle, with a slide, bounce area, ball pit and a splash pool. Perfect for the beautiful weather we have been having! The whole things is enclosed in netting to stop anyone falling out. Alex needed a bit of a hand climbing up the wall to get to the slide platform, but Harrison was up and away!
The second castle., the bounce spin combo, was even bigger, with all the features of the first one, plus a curved slide and basketball hoop. The kids loved it!
Both castles retail at £399.95 from Toyz World, which isn’t bad if you think that hiring one for a day is about £80. The super durable materials mean that the bouncy castle will last for years to come.
When the kids were well and truly bounced out, we headed over to the events marquee for lunch. Harrison, who is an absolute nightmare for eating demolished his – he obviously burned off plenty of calories whilst playing!
After lunch, we were free to go on and do our own thing in the adventure farm. Last time we went to Hatton was Christmas 2013. It was really hot by this point so we had a quick look and stroke of the animals and a play on the JCB area. We spotted even more bouncy castles but I think the boys were all bounced out by this point. Harrison did have a go on the inflatable slide though – he is absolutely fearless!
We all particularly loved going down to the strawberry fields and picked a massive punnet full of strawberries – they enjoyed playing at being farmers!
We decided to head home at that point because it was getting incredibly hot. Within seconds of being strapped in they were both spark out in the car – all the bouncing obviously wore them out!
A huge thankyou to Toyz World for inviting us for a lovely day!
