When most people think of playing darts, they picture throwing sharp objects at a small board — perhaps in a pub or a basement. There's no doubt that this type of darts can be fun, but there are other options for you to think about. If you're planning a large outdoor event for family and friends, and you're interested in renting some inflatable attractions to keep people entertained, an inflatable dart game is one idea to consider. This game features a giant, inflatable dart board and a quantity of soccer-sized balls. The balls stick to the board with hook-and-loop fasteners, and people can either kick or throw the balls toward the target. Here are three reasons to rent an inflatable dart game.

Safer

Traditional darts can be fun, but this game isn't necessarily a good choice at large gatherings. In a crowded space, it's risky for people to throw darts because of the chance of a dart hitting someone and causing an injury. An inflatable dart game is much safer because it doesn't involve anything sharp and pointy. You never want anyone to get hurt at a party you're hosting, and you'll be confident in everyone's safety when you have an inflatable dart game for people to play.

More Involvement

It's easy to get more people involved in an inflatable dart game than a traditional game of darts. The latter is best suited for just two players, which may not be ideal if you have a large gathering. When you set up an inflatable dart board in your yard, several people can easily play the game at the same time. Kids at the party who aren't actively playing will even enjoy running around and retrieving errant balls. The large size of the board means that people can have fun observing the game from a distance.

More Physical

Many people who host gatherings that include children look for physical activities that will keep the children engaged — and eventually tire them out a little. An inflatable dart game is a good option in this regard. Not only will its unique nature likely mean that kids will play it for hours, but they'll also be constantly running, kicking, and throwing. This can help to tire them out throughout the gathering so that they're not full of energy and potentially acting out.
