Things to Keep in Mind
Parents can supervise without a ticket
Parents who are solely there just to supervise their kids don’t need to purchase a ticket to do so. However, they will require you to just stay on the carpet the entire time.
Trampoline socks are available for purchase
Folks visiting Flying Squirrels should purchase trampoline socks on-site before joining the fun. This ensures that everyone has a safe and slip-free experience while bouncing around.
Outside food and drinks aren’t allowed
Outside food and drinks aren’t allowed inside Flying Squirrels. That said, they have their own dining destination where visitors can purchase something to recharge their energy.
I suggest eating after the activities to avoid feeling too full while jumping around. Trust me, being too full and bouncing don’t mix well!
