'Bounce house' injuries skyrocketing

NATIONAL - An average of one child every 45 minutes was treated in an emergency room for inflatable bouncer-related injuries!

Inflatable bouncers, such as bounce houses and moon walks, are popular at children’s birthday parties and summer carnivals. While they can be a source of fun and entertainment for children, inflatable bouncers can also lead to serious injuries, such as broken bones and concussions. In the past 20 years, the number of injuries associated with inflatable bouncers treated in hospital emergency departments in the U.S. has skyrocketed, and now equals more than 30 children a day, or about one child every 45 minutes.
