Tried and True, a Bounce House is the Ultimate Christmas Gift
Finding the perfect Christmas gift is never easy. It’s especially challenging when shopping for kids. You want to give them something memorable that they’ll enjoy for a good long time. But how do you find a great gift nobody else is already thinking of?
My mom is a Christmas geek of the highest caliber. She starts her Christmas shopping December 26th and doesn’t take a break until December 24th the following year, and only then because the stores have been stripped bare.
Her fanaticism makes shopping for my own kids all the more challenging. How can I be sure the awesome toy I’m buying hasn’t been sitting, wrapped and bowed, in my mom’s ultra-secret Christmas gift lair for three or four months already? I’d sneak in to find out what she’s bought already, but no one is sure where she actually hides them. That’s been a fiercely guarded secret for decades.
To find gifts my mom hasn’t already bought the kids, I need to think outside of the box. And that means I also need to think outside of the box store.
We’re of course a little biased here at Pogo, but we think we have the perfect solution: a bounce house. Or maybe another of our vinyl crossover inflatables or bigger commercial inflatables. Either way, a bounce house makes for the ultimate Christmas gift. Don’t believe us? Here are ten reasons why we think a bounce house simply can’t be topped!
1. Inflatables Offer Serious Wow-Factor
I’m sure I speak for a lot of parents when I say we want our kids to be positively stunned by their Christmas gifts. The perfect gift is the one that leaves kids utterly speechless … or maybe squealing loudly with joy, so long as you’ve already had your morning coffee. A bounce house slaps a big check mark in that box.

2. A Bounce House is as Unique a Christmas Gift as Gifts Get
One year, three different people all got me the same Christmas gift, not realizing it was something I had bought for myself a few months earlier. This is especially frustrating when they’re gifts for children. Finding a gift that stands out and stands alone can be a challenge, but you can rest assured no one else is buying your kids a bounce house for Christmas!
3. It’s a Christmas Gift that Lasts an Entire Childhood
Most kids love gaming consoles. In 2020, the newest PlayStation and Xbox consoles are dominating the top spot on countless millions of wish lists. And your kids will surely get a lot of mileage out of those game consoles, too … for a few years, anyway. And then they’re made obsolete by the next big console release.
Bounce houses are priced comparatively, but you don’t have to worry about dated graphics or hard drives filled to the brim. If cared for properly, your children will outgrow your bounce house long before your bounce house outgrows them. And that’s not going to happen anytime soon, either.
4. Your Kids and Their Friends Will Use Their Bounce House Through Most of the Year
Depending on where in the country you live, a bounce house can be used through most of the year, year after year. You can safely set it up whenever it’s 40 degrees Fahrenheit or warmer outside. And a handful of you reading this might have an indoor space where it can be set up on even colder days, too.

5. Inflatables are Fitness Friendly
Keeping your kids from vegging out on the sofa can be difficult, but not when you offer them a little incentive. Bounce houses promote plyometric fitness and keep your children moving in fresh outdoor air.

6. The Ultimate Hand-Me-Down!
Are you planning on having more kids down the road? Do you have younger siblings who might have kids? Bounce houses and other inflatables are fantastic hand-me-down gifts. When your kids eventually grow out of their bounce house somewhere far down the road, you can pass it on to a new generation of kids and see them continue to enjoy it for many more years.
7. Super Easy to Clean, Store, and Even Repair
Bounce houses and other inflatables are relatively low maintenance. Read our guides on cleaning bounce houses, storing inflatables, and patching and repairing them to see just how easy it is to keep them in tip-top shape all year.
8. The Bounce House Party Don’t Stop!
Birthdays, graduations, Halloween, Independence day, spontaneous summer barbeques … if you’re a fan of enjoying outdoor parties and activities, your bounce house, inflatable water slide, or inflatable slip and slide will take center stage at all sorts of events throughout the year. Stun your guests and their kids with an incredible inflatable centerpiece that will drop many a jaw to the floor.
9. Plenty of Uses Away From Home, Too
If you’re involved with your PTA, Scouts, church groups, or if you’re otherwise active in your local community, your new Pogo bounce house can play a starring role in fundraisers, socials, and more. Pick up a Hand truck or dolly to make moving your inflatables easier, and you’ll bring an invaluable fun factor to every event you help put together.

10. A Christmas Gift that Brings Your Family Together
Quality family time is a valuable commodity, and it’s important you try to get the most out of those precious moments shared by everyone together. We just spent a lot of time talking about all of the value a bounce house brings to your family, but we saved the best for last.

Bounce houses are affordable, especially given Pogo’s free shipping and relentless bombardment of awesome sale prices all year round. They’re easy to operate and pain free to maintain. But their biggest and best value is the high volume of family time they help facilitate, and the joy they’ll bring to your kids.
You can’t put a price on quality family time. But if you could, it just so happens Pogo’s prices are pretty fantastic.
