As a full-time children’s magician, I’ve had the privilege of performing for thousands of NYC birthday parties, and I can tell you details about each one.
It’s that important.
That’s why my heart sinks whenever I see a NYC birthday party melt into a disaster that could have easily been avoided.
I recently came across this article in the Telegraph, for example, which describes an alarming increase in the number of injures caused by bouncy-castles.
Here are just a few of the startling statistics:
In 2010, 1 child was sent to the emergency room every 45 minutes due to bouncy-castle related injuries
Researchers studying hospital statistics found a 15-fold increase in wounds including broken bones, head injuries and cuts since 1995
43% of all bouncy castle-related injuries are caused by falls
Sounds like a lot of unnecessary tears, stress and headache, if you ask me…
