My Project

HES has the best students! These remarkable students deserve to have a bounce house. I plan to use a bounce house to improve my students' physical and mental health while jumping and playing with their friends.

Bouncing provides a fun way for kids to burn off excess energy and unwind, helping to improve their focus and concentration on other activities.

Jumping enhances coordination and balance, which is crucial for children's physical development. Dr. Porcari states to New York Times, that in addition to being a cardiovascular workout, bouncing is "fantastic" for balance, building muscles in your feet, ankles, and calves."
