Although we can think of few things more appealing than leaving a child to hang in an elastic death trap, we must avoid the Bounce Bounce Baby! Door jumper, despite its potential for comedy. It seems the jumper is a “Hazard: The plastic clamp that attaches the jumper seat to a door frame can break, which can cause the unit and child to fall to the floor. This poses an injury hazard to young children.”

If you’re going to hang your precious pumpkin from a door frame, please, do it the old fashioned way. Salt liberally and bind with baling twine for one long-lasting childhood.
