My daughter recently went to a friend’s birthday party at Buckeye Bounce Club. I love being introduced to new places by way of a birthday party, mainly because another parent has already scoped it out and finds it worthy. After doing the dinosaur exhibit at the fairgrounds one year, I came to the conclusion that I don’t like spending money on things that are “meh.” Life is too short and my pocketbook is only so full.
Buckeye Bounce Club is located off of Sawmill Parkway just south of Powell Road. The place isn’t huge like Skyzone, but they have the same type of set up with the trampolines and foam cubes. The staff was friendly and ready to help and guide guests. I had to sign a waiver first thing, and then the birthday celebration began. I didn’t stay for the whole party, but from what I saw it was organized and well-planned from beginning to end. They had a large room with tables for food and gift opening. There was also a waiting area where coats could be stored and mom could work on her laptop or knit (ha!..why knot?!). The place was decked out in scarlet and gray – the colors added an exciting and fun feeling to the space.
My girl had an awesome time and wants to go back. She was there for two hours and during that time did lots of bouncing, playing with friends, and eating pizza and cake.
Now, it was extremely busy. My guess is if you were planning to host a birthday party there you’d want to call a good month or two months in advance. I’d probably recommend this place for kids 3 or 4 and up. The girl whose party it was turned eight, and it seemed perfect for that age group. Toddlers would like the jumping, but there really isn’t a place for them to run around and I can also see them getting bored. BUT, if you want to take toddlers they do offer a “Mommy and Me” jump class specifically for 1 – 3 year olds.
Buckeye Bounce Club offers open jump during the week. Check out their schedule here: Open Jump. It is done on a first come/first serve basis. They also have classes and offer birthday party packages. Definitely worth checking out!
