Trivia Question: Who introduced Moon Jumps to Northeast Illinois?
Answer: We did - Moon Jump, Inc.

In 1990 my wife and I looked into renting an inflatable ride for our then 7-year old daughter. After considerable searching we found that the only places that had inflatable rides were the Carnival and Amusement Ride establishments. These establishments were located in Chicago, Iowa, and Indiana and the cost to rent from them was prohibitive. We were disappointed. However, that prompted us into thinking that there had to be a means of renting inflatable rides at an affordable rate and from a local establishment. We had seen this done in other cities. At that point we made the decision to start our own company of inflatable ride rentals. In 1990 we invented the name Moon Jump and started the business. Some of you may notice that many companies refer to their inflatable rides as Moon Jumps. We take pride in knowing that we invented that name.

We have since grown some but have not lost site that we are still a small family owned business and will continue to treat you with respect, give you the personal service you deserve and obviously just as important, continue to keep the rental prices affordable.

To those of you who have been with us since the early years and especially those of you with us since 1990, we give you a great big Thank You. Thank you for your continued support and your continued referrals.
