Home trampoline – which one to choose to make it safe and fun for kids?

As longer and warmer days are coming, the more we crave more time outdoors. Hungry for sunshine, activity and fresh air, people are looking for fun ideas to spend time with their families. The dream of many children, as well as a fun activity for adults, is a home trampoline. Were you thinking of a fun activity for your child which also encourages an active lifestyle? A garden trampoline would be a great option. However, in order for it to be fun and most importantly a safe activity even for the youngest participants, it is important to keep in mind important characteristics when purchasing one, including the quality of the frame, the maximum load, the strength of the mat, the presence of a safety net and springs protection.

Basic knowledge for safe trampoline use

In order to use a trampoline safely, there are a few important safety measures that need to be followed. Firstly – always remember to remove a child’s footwear and any accessories that could stuck, cause cuts or other injuries before getting on the trampoline, and remove any objects such as toys, balls etc. from the trampoline before using it. Make sure the trampoline has a special net to keep a child safe while using the trampoline. It is not only the presence of the safety net itself that is important, but also the right way to install it.

Finding a place to put the trampoline is extremely important – there should be no plants or other objects or tools under or next to the trampoline. Remember to attach the ladder to the frame properly, so it stays stable when the child enters or exits the trampoline. Pay attention to the maximum load of the trampoline and respect the permitted number of people on it at the same time.

Remember that a trampoline is an activity for everyone. It is important to be aware of any health conditions that may restrict such activities. Hypertension, injuries, and blood clotting disorders are some examples of contraindications.

Trampoline with an inner or outer net?

There are different types of trampolines on the market – with a net on the inside, outside or completely without one. A trampoline with an inner mesh is the best choice for young children, as it not only protects them from falling off, but also from the hard parts of the frame, which can contribute to injury in case of a fall. A trampoline with a mesh on the inside is a safer choice for toddlers, but for older children and adults, a model with an outer mesh will be a more comfortable solution as it gives more freedom, space to play, does not restrict movements, and therefore makes the activity more enjoyable.

To sum it up, it is important to match a trampoline to the age and capabilities of its youngest users. It is also important to remember to use the trampoline wisely. If used properly, trampolines can improve motor coordination, strengthen muscles and balance. However, improper use can lead to injury, trauma and have potentially negative effects on the pelvic floor muscles. Remember that only one person can jump on a trampoline at a time and children should only use it under adult supervision.
