6 Jumpstreet Get into kid mode and bounce around in this indoor trampoline park in Glendale or in Chandler. This unique facility features multiple lanes of colored trampolines, trampoline dodge ball courts, and blow-up trampoline fixtures. Plan a private event or grab a group of friends and your kids and take to the trampolines. Practice your tumbling and jumps for cheerleading or your tricks for the skate parks and snowboard slopes, race your friends, challenge them to a jumping contest, or simply tucker yourself out! Jumpstreet is available for private events as well as public birthday bashes and more. All participants will be asked to sign waivers before beginning. Prices vary by day. Visit gotjump.com for location addresses, phone numbers, pricing, and additional information. And be sure to stretch before and after—if it’s been a while since you bounced, you’ll be sore!
7 Handwritten Letters In this fast-paced world where news is instantaneous and text messages, tweets, and Facebook statuses dominate communication, a personal touch is extra special. Don’t discount the importance of a handwritten letter, a note, or a card. These are the pieces of communication we store in our shoe boxes as keepsakes, the bits of our history that we show our children, and the gentle reminder of our loved ones’ personalities when they are no longer with us. Something handwritten communicates more in context than do its contents—it means you’ve taken time out of your ever-busy schedule to focus on the recipient. It’s personalized, and for those members of older generations who not only put less stock in modern forms of communication but also choose not to use them, handwritten pieces of paper are a great way to express how much you care. An added drawing, design, cutout, or pop of color adds a little pizzazz!
