As the temperatures are setting record highs in Dayton, and the surrounding area, people are desperately looking for ways to cool down.  First, drinking lots of water is imperative, so don’t shy away from the H2O!  Second, finding ways to have fun outside may be difficult, so let me suggest an idea.  WATER SLIDES!!  Truly, these are life savers in the summer for parents who are looking for something fun for their kids, but don’t want to be outside.    My idea is that a group of parents could chip in to rent a slide (remember, slides cost a bit more than bounce houses because of the height, it requires a more detailed design) and then have a party for the entire day!  Utilizing a group rental minimizes the cost for all involved but truly maximizes the fun.  Now you may think, “What if the kids get tired of it?”, or, “What if they don’t use it the whole time?”  They will.  I didn’t believe it myself, but while I was working the 5th of July festival at Hueston Woods, I ran the water slide.  A&S had four other premiere rides at that event, and there was never a line less than 15 people for the water slide.  Some kids rode it continuously for FIVE hours!  One kid even rode it over FIFTY TIMES, until his mom finally pulled him away!  This showed me just how popular water attractions are in this big heat, enough that I had to try riding it myself and I agree, it is fun!  So if your kids are looking for something fun to do in this blazing heat, why not look through the listings for A&S Play Zone’s slip n slides and water slides!  Stay Cool!!
