Jumping Bean

The kids and I headed into town today to the mall to try and pick up some last minute things for Christmas. We brought the double stroller (which was again... amazing) and enjoyed a fairly empty mall (very surprising considering Christmas is less than 72 hours away). Anyway...

As we were walking along, we came across this acrobatic/trampoleen... Thomas' eyes were wide open as he just stopped and stared at the two young children who were already on it. There was a little girl who I am guessing was about 3 or 4 and a young boy about 6 who were jumping and enjoying it tremendously. Again, Thomas was in awe. After about a minute, I turned to him and asked, "Would you like to go on it?" Before I even heard an answer, Thomas was already taking off his jacket and walking around to the entrace. "OH MY GOSH! He really wants to do this? I don't know if he is even big enough or how much this thing costs??"

We get to the entrace and I read the sign: Minimum is 20lbs - $6 for 3 minutes. OMG again, who on earth would put a 20lb child up on this thing? And am I crazy for paying $6 for just 3 minutes of "I'm not sure if Thomas is really gonna like this?"

I think you can tell all too well that he LOVED it and it was worth every penny that I spent!

This is just the 1st or 2nd bounce... he went much higher once he got the hang of it.
Are there enough straps and harnesses?
Being lowered down after all the bouncing... I think he is bummed here he has to get off.
