Can children be amused in a hall without something bouncy?

Hi trying to organise party for three 3 year olds.
We loved the idea of hiring a hall and getting a bouncy castle but apparently health and safety have gone mad and we are really struggling to find somewhere to put said bouncy. (Southside of glasgow just in case anyone knows anywhere). Should we give up on the idea of a hall all together or can we keep 20+ children amused?
Plus all three of us and many of our friends have babies and mine is the oldest at 6mths.

what about a ball pond and 'squish climibing' shapes...our soft paly centre hires them out...maybe you could get the same?

also our local sports centre does parties where they provide the bouncy castle...all part of the deal

Don't know if they've got something like this in you area but near us they have a group called jo jingles which is a woman who does allsorts of party songs and activities which are suitable for kids from baby up to 5. My friend did it for her ds and it worked out the same as bouncy castle etc and the kids absolutely loved it. Other than that what about the ball pool, some tunnels. Fancy dress maybe and some face painting?

What about somewhere like this Glasgow Fort , exclusive use of room for 2 hours from £47 and you can bring your own food.

Me, too, cf

Actually little ones do love just hurtling around in a huge empty space, skidding on the floor etc but I can see that even that would pall after an hour or so!

Cheers all managed to get somewhere today. The glasgow fort thing looks brilliant value would probably have gone with that but its a little far to travel i suppose. But will definately tell anyone else about it.
