Jumping at Inflata City

Posted on September 10, 2025September 6, 2025 by Jupiter

Ever since Jump Giants have closed, Robin has been hoping for a new place that just vibes like that. One of the other parents ate school messaged me about Inflata City, which she had a fantastic time at, so we were excited to head there as well and see what it was like. Inflata City is a huge inflation place, with a lot of different areas to explore around. Kai and Amelia can with Dann, Robin and I, though Robin is at the end of the age group for this type of place.
