Summer Elementary Open Play
Jump Around JoCo hosts open play for elementary age children in an indoor inflatable playground. Kids can bounce, jump, and slide while burning off energy, with air conditioning helping everyone stay comfortable no matter the weather. These sessions are held every Wednesday throughout the summer, and admission is $15 at the door, making it a simple option for playdates or meeting up with friends.
