The Presidents' Day three-day weekend is just around the corner (February 14-16, 2026), and Cape Coral and Fort Myers families are already planning how to make the most of that extra day off! While some families will head to the beach or take a quick getaway, smart parents know the secret to an unforgettable long weekend: turning your backyard into an epic party zone with bounce house rentals from SWFL Amusements!
Why Presidents' Day Weekend Is Perfect for Bounce House Parties in Southwest Florida
Let's be honest - Presidents' Day weekend in Southwest Florida is basically a gift from the party planning gods:
- Perfect Weather: Mid-February in Cape Coral and Fort Myers means sunny skies and temperatures in the mid-70s to low-80s - ideal bounce house weather!
- Three Full Days: Saturday, Sunday, AND Monday off school means you can party all weekend without rushing
- No Major Conflicts: Unlike holiday weekends with family obligations, Presidents' Day is wide open for fun
- Before Spring Break Rush: Beat the spring break crowd and get first pick of SWFL Amusements' best equipment
- Kids Need It: By mid-February, kids are itching for a break from the school routine - give them something to remember!
The Ultimate Presidents' Day Weekend Party Lineup
Here's how Cape Coral and Fort Myers families are maximizing their three-day weekend with bounce house rentals:
Option 1: The All-Weekend Rental (Friday-Monday)
Why limit the fun to just one day? Our weekend rental packages let you keep the bounce house from Friday afternoon through Monday evening. That means:
- Friday after-school surprise party (imagine your kids' faces!)
- Saturday birthday bash or neighborhood gathering
- Sunday family fun day
- Monday morning "last hurrah" before heading back to school
Popular choices for all-weekend rentals include our Tiki Island Bounce House Combo and 55' Large Obstacle Course - they offer enough variety to keep kids entertained for days!
Option 2: The Saturday Super Party
Go all-in on Saturday with a mega party setup combining multiple inflatables. Our most-requested Saturday party packages for Presidents' Day weekend include:
- 14' x 14' Castle Bounce House + Home Run Derby Baseball Game = Sports & bounce combo
- Pirate Ship Bounce House + 35' Double Lane Bungee Run = Adventure zone
- 70' Straight Obstacle Course + Double Basketball Challenge = Competition central
Option 3: The Monday Marathon
Some families prefer to save the big party for Monday - the "bonus day" when everyone's relaxed and no one has to wake up early the next morning. This is perfect for:
- Extended family gatherings (grandparents can come too!)
- Neighborhood block parties (everyone's home on Monday!)
- Combined birthday celebrations (February birthdays unite!)
- Last-minute "we need to do something!" parties
Presidential Party Theme Ideas for Your Bounce House Bash
Why not lean into the Presidents' Day theme and make it educational AND fun? Here are some creative ideas Cape Coral families are using:
1. Red, White & Blue Decor
Deck out your yard with patriotic decorations around our bounce houses. String up American flags, hang red/white/blue streamers, and use star-spangled tablecloths. Our Castle Bounce House looks amazing surrounded by patriotic bunting!
2. "Presidential Physical Fitness Challenge"
Turn your bounce house party into a fitness challenge inspired by the Presidential Fitness Test (remember gym class?). Set up stations:
- Obstacle course time trials (55' Large Obstacle Course)
- Bungee run races (35' Double Lane Bungee Run)
- Basketball free throws (Double Basketball Challenge)
- Home run derby (Home Run Derby Baseball Game)
Award gold, silver, and bronze medals (or just fun participation ribbons from the dollar store!)
3. "Mount Rushmore Summit"
Create a photo booth area with cutouts of the four presidents from Mount Rushmore. Kids can pose with foam crowns and presidential sashes. Bonus: Print out fun presidential facts and create a scavenger hunt around the yard while the bounce house action continues!
4. Historical Snack Bar
Serve food inspired by presidents:
- "Lincoln Logs" (pretzel rods)
- "Washington Cherry Tarts" (cherry hand pies)
- "Roosevelt Root Beer Floats"
- "Jefferson's Jerky" (beef jerky sticks)
