About Kids Amusements
Kids Amusements, trading online as Jumping Castle Hire Newcastle, is a party hire business run from Tenambit in Maitland. Its main line is inflatable fun: compact castles for backyard birthdays, combo castles with slides and knock-down bollards, a two-level castle, toddler soft play and inflatable obstacle courses. Children's parties are the bread and butter, but the team also brings gear to weddings, engagements, corporate days, school fetes and festivals. For a private party the crew turns up and sets the castle up, then returns after the hire window to deflate it and take it away. Backyard hires run for four hours, and the price includes delivery, set-up and pack-down within the core service area. Larger attractions, including the giant dual-lane slide, bungee run, merry-go-round, gladiator ring and the big obstacle courses, go out with trained, uniformed operators who supervise them, and any public event is staffed the same way for insurance reasons. The business carries public liability insurance and says its equipment is cleaned and safety checked often. Bookings need no deposit and there is no cancellation fee, which helps when an outdoor party depends on the forecast. Alongside the inflatables, Kids Amusements hires pop-up marquees from three by three metres up to six by six, folding tables and chairs including kids' chairs, giant lawn games, carnival games such as laughing clowns, and fairy floss, popcorn and snow cone machines. It also offers face painters and can run rides on a commission basis for school fetes. Delivery covers Maitland, Cessnock and Dungog as standard, with a travel fee beyond those areas.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a jumping castle cost from Kids Amusements?
A small four-by-four metre castle starts at $280 for a four-hour backyard hire, delivered, set up and packed down. Combo castles with slides start at $380 and the two-level castle at $450. Supervised hire for public events starts at $650 for three hours.
Do I need to set the castle up myself?
No. The crew delivers the castle, sets it up and comes back after the party to deflate and remove it. Some larger attractions must be run by their trained staff for the whole hire.
Which castles suit younger children?
The four-by-four metre castles are built for children aged about two to ten and fit smaller backyards. The combo castles with slides suit kids up to twelve, and there is soft play equipment for children up to eight.
Is there a deposit or cancellation fee?
The website says bookings need no deposit and there is no cancellation fee.
Can I hire a marquee or tables with the castle?
Yes. Pop-up marquees start at $200 for a three by three metre size, delivered and set up, and tables and chairs are available for hires of up to three days. A soft play setup can also be paired with a small castle for an extra $150.
