We started planning for Planet Bounce in 2013 to give our kids and all the kids in the Pittsburgh area a fun and safe place to be kids. After renting a bounce house for our son’s first birthday in 2012, we saw that bounce houses were a hit with kids and ADULTS! We knew bounce houses were a perfect way to promote healthy exercise for children in a fun environment. A year later, we started planning how to make an out of this world indoor inflatable bounce house play space. As a family-run business, we understand the importance of a play space like this in our community. We are all thrilled to get to share our space with you.
