REVIEW – Jump In Trampoline Park Summer Passes

#Ad This is a sponsored post

When I asked Erin what she wanted to do during the summer holidays, there was one thing that came out top of the list – trampolining. We have only been trampolining once before last summer for Erin’s birthday, and she had an absolute ball, jumping and leaping around doing star jumps and flips as if her life depended on it. As well as having a great time whilst we were there, it came with a hidden silver lining from a parent’s perspective – she was so exhausted when we got home that she slept like an absolute dream! 🙂

Jump In Trampoline Park Summer Passes to the rescue!

We all know that school holidays can be expensive, and it can be super hard to find fun activities to entertain the youngsters during the school holidays, and the cost of going out on day trips and meals out can soon add up. That’s why at Jump In Trampoline Parks they have recently created their Summer passes, which can be purchased NOW and used up until 31st August 2019.

Saving a massive discount on the usual entry fees, Jump In Summer Passes can be purchased in advance, choosing from £35 for five one-hour jump sessions or £60 for 10 one-hour jump sessions. Even better, you can share the fun around as the passes can also be used by friends and family to enjoy Jump In together.

With three weeks of the Summer Holidays left here in the Midlands, Jump In Summer Passes are a great way to keep the little ones busy this Summer without blowing the budget!

Last week we headed along to Jump In Trampoline Park in Warwick with Erin and her two cousins to see what the Jump In Summer Passes can offer in terms of family friendly fun. Firstly let me apologise for how blurry these photographs are – clearly my equipment isn’t up to the challenge of photographing children that are moving at lightning speed!

Our Experience at Jump In Trampoline Park Warwick

We headed along to Jump In Warwick for when it first opened at 10am and this seemed like a good time to go, as it wasn’t too busy at all.

When you first arrive you are given wrist bands to wear and some special Jump In socks which are required for health and safety reasons and have special grips on the bottom. These cost £2.50 each, but can be kept for your next visit, so you only need to buy them once.

Just before your session time, you are invited to watch a short group safety briefing video which outlines some behaviour guidelines for using the trampolines, including having one person per trampoline to avoid bumping in to other people.

There is a small cafe on site where you can purchase reasonably priced food and drinks (ideal as all that bouncing around can work up quite an appetite!) and a large number of small lockers where you can stash away your bags and belongings before you go on to the trampolines.

The Jump In trampoline park is split into different zones, some of which have age or height restrictions, and with three kids in tow ranging from 4 to 7 years, we worked our way around the majority. There is also a small special trampoline area for toddlers with balls and soft play characters, which is great if you have little ones who want to jump but are nervous about some of the older skaters jumping close by.

In addition to the trampoline activities, there is also a small soft play area on site at Jump In Warwick for under 5’s, which was great during a two hour jump if younger children get a bit tired or want a small rest bite from the bouncing.

Jump In Open Jump

The largest area at Jump In trampoline park in Warwick is the zone of interconnected trampolines – with each child being able to jump in their own space, and not get flicked around by or bump into other people! Nathan and Erin absolutely loved having little competitions jumping off the ledges at the count of 3, and seeing who could bounce back up off their bottoms!

At one point Erin did land a little funny on her foot, and a member of staff very quickly came over to see if she was OK. He had a great manner with her, very quickly calming her down and asking her to rate how much it hurt on a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being so bad we need to chop her foot off). This very quickly made Erin laugh, and before we knew it she was up and about and bouncing around again! I found the staff really friendly and although parental supervision is required at all times, it’s good to know there is another pair of eyes looking out for your family too.

Jump In Foam Pit

As well as the free jump area, Nathan and Erin were also big fans of the foam pit – which consisted of two trampolines where you could bounce straight into a giant pit full of soft grey cubes. They loved having a bit of a run up and doing their best star jumps, and with a guaranteed soft landing they didn’t to worry about the descent!

It was really funny watching them try and scramble their way out of the foam, with an almost quick sand like effect it was easier said than done!!

Jump In Battlebeam

One of my personal favourites at the Jump In trampoline park was the Battlebeam – which took me straight back to the 90’s and my Saturday night evenings watching Gladiator. I had to resist the urge to shout 3,2,1 READY when Erin and Nathan battled it out in their safety gear! The Jump In Battlebeam allows two players to try and knock each other off using the padded pugel sticks. Erin was surprisingly good at this, knocking Nathan off twice before he even had chance to take a retaliating swing! For older children, and to make this a bit harder, you can stand up on the balance beam to really put your balance and coordination skills to the test!

Jump In Giant Air Bag

For taller or older guests, the Giant air bag zone at Jump In trampoline park is a fab opportunity to really put your bravery (and fear of heights!) to the test. With two high bases to jump from and a giant air bag to catch your fall, you must be able to climb on to the bases without assistance in order to jump. Obviously the kids were a little too young for this one, however Mike very quickly volunteered to give it a go!

Jump In Twist Ladder

Erin was also a massive fan of the Twist ladder – a real test of upper body strength, determination and balance. The aim of the game is to climb the ladder (which easily twists and turns) all the way to the top and ring a bell – much harder than it may first appear! At only 6, Erin didn’t quite have the body length to ring the bell at the very top, but bless her heart was so determined to get to the top!

At times there was a little queue of children waiting for the turn (only four or five at a time) and it was actually really lovely to see the children supporting who ever was having a turn, giving them little shouts of encouragement and a big cheer when they made it to the top. We watched a little girl who was only a little bit older than Erin who absolutely put her heart and soul into ringing that bell, not giving up even when her hands kept skimming past the edge of the bell just millimetres away from her target!

Overall we had a fantastic time at Jump In trampoline park in Warwick, and despite being a little sweaty, bedraggled and exhausted, the kids all left with huge smiles on their faces. With the Summer weather being so unpredictable, I think the Jump In Summer Passes offer a great way to entertain the children whatever the weather and ensure that you can fill multiple days with an activity that will help them burn off some pent up energy!

With a wide range of different zones to suit every age, there really is something to entertain every child – in our case Immy was quite happy in the free jump zone and spent most of her time in there, whilst Nathan and Erin were happy to embrace their inner Adrenalin junkies and set themselves more of a physical challenge.

With lots of areas to stand on the side lines and watch / support / snap photos, adults don’t have to jump but it’s a lot more fun when you do!
