Savvy mum makes DIY bouncy castle mat using £2.99 B&M vacuum packs & it’s SO easy to do
NOTHING tires our kids out quite like a bouncy castle – but thanks to lockdown, we don’t remember the last time they had a good go on one.
Well if your little ones are (quite literally) bouncing off the walls in lockdown, then we’ve got the perfect solution.
In a viral TikTok video, mum-of-five Libby revealed how she turned B&M vacuum bags – which you can buy for £2.99 each – into a bouncy castle mat.
After seeing the “life hack” online, Libby stocked up on a value pack of the bargain bags and filled them balloons.
Next, she sucked the air out of the vacuum bags to prevent the balloons from popping.
In awe of how the simple DIY toy kept her kids entertained, Libby then captioned the clip: “TikTok made me do it.”
As the video racked up over 22,000 “likes”, she added “none [of the balloons] have popped so far [with] four kids playing on them.”
One fan replied: “I’m ordering vacuum bags for a get-together!”
Another added: “I love this idea for little kids!”
Meanwhile, a third gushed: “They’re pretty good for sleepover beds too.”
