I love the sharing of different words for the same thing :D
In Australia, in my part at least (Melbourne) it's often called a jumping castle. How would we discover these things if it were not for this community of nonogram solvers?

There's a word map for Australia showing words that are different in different regions. It's amazing how many there are, when there is only one dominant language, and only 25 million people. If you search "togs" on the word map you'll see how many different words are used for the things you wear for swimming. A lot of us only know one of these terms, and would be totally bamboozled if someone (maybe a visitor from interstate) used a different one.

I am not sure what togs are. Are they flip flop shoes, or swimwear? It is not a term we use in the US.

This shows some of that information in a different (and much prettier) way.
