I'm going to throw an "end of school year" party at home for my 11 and 12 year old boys. What are some ideas?

I thought about possibly having a water/combo slide, along with music, food. I'm just not sure what would be a good idea for this type of party. Any suggestions?!?!

Answer
What you have so far is good ideas! heres some more things you could do
-have squirt gun and water balloon battles
- set up a station with some type of video game,like a wii if you have one.
-trampoline, bounce house
-play kickball at a local park or in your yard
-play baseball with plastic bat and a wiffle ball, really fun
-have board games
-maybe a funny movie showing once it gets later

What is the most effective and cheapest way to keep leaves and acorns off my trampoline?

I have a trampoline but I live in the woods and I always have to clean it. I've heard of trampoline covers but do they work? Could I use a tarp? Anything else I could do?

Answer
Someone already mentioned trampoline tarps--it's a great way to keep off any sort of debris.

For already existing stuff, any kind of broom or rake will do the job just fine. A hose with good water pressure might be a good idea too if birds decide to use your trampoline for target practice--if they haven't already. You could use soap to really get it out (and I hear the slipping and sliding around is a small part of the fun), but I've also heard too much soap can damage the mat over time.

Hope I was of help! :)
