Trampoline Safety Tips For The Whole Family

A backyard trampoline can bring hours of fun for the whole family this summer. But unlike toys in the sandbox, a trampoline is not something that can just be “played with.” This has to be fun time that is supervised especially when young children are having fun with the bouncing. Here are some trampoline safety tips the whole family should embrace:

Age Restrictions

No children under five should be allowed to go on an adult trampoline. If this causes problems, then you might want to consider getting a mini trampoline for your toddlers. These are small trampolines close to the ground that allow them to have just as much bouncing fun as the big kids.

Supervision

The time that your kids spend on the trampoline should be supervised just as much as you would with a swimming pool. Although you might think they are just having fun, kids like to experiment. That means getting into all kinds of gymnastic stunts that they’re not ready for. Even if you establish the rule of no wild antics, you really can’t turn your back on them.

Padding and Net

You can make your backyard trampoline safer with the addition of perimeter padding. These specially designed pads will go around the rim of the trampoline covering the springs. A trampoline net can also be erected around the entire unit, which can prevent jumpers from flying off the side.

No Gymnastics

As mentioned, your family shouldn’t engage in gymnastics especially if they don’t know what they’re doing. Bouncing somersaults might look easy but they take a lot of skill and practice to master. If this is something your kids want to get involved in, then you might want to look into certified instruction. Along those same lines, you should not allow more than one jumper at a time. It’s too easy for them to fly into each other.

Inspect the Trampoline before Each Use

Before anyone climbs onto the trampoline, you want to make sure that it is totally dry. It will also help to take a quick look at all the springs to make sure they are connected. If it looks like the springs are rusty or the trampoline is becoming frayed, then it might be time to replace the entire unit. Obviously, this is something that you can’t merely toss out in the trash. Instead, call on Junk King Denver for reliable removal of your old trampoline. The two-man team assigned to this task from Junk King will also be able to haul away any other unwanted items you want to get rid of from your yard or inside of the house. It’s a great way to get rid of clutter.

Use these tips to keep everyone safe and happy on your backyard trampoline this summer.
