to let kids out onto the trampoline?

Our neighbours (3 doors down), and fairly good friends, have just bought a trampoline. The last 2 weekends this kids have been outside on it from 7am ish, shouting and screaming and waking us up. Our bedroom backs onto the gardens, theirs is at the front of the house so they may not realise how noisy it is.

I don't want to cause hard feelings but this is too early on a weekend isn't it?

How can I phrase this politely....?

Yes we have noisy birds in our chimney too but I accept it happily. Kids I wouldn't accept though. I'd blame the selfish parents though.

Way too early, just blurt it out, there is no point sugarcoating it, say it how you've said it here. They've probably sent them out so they can have a lie in - at the expense of yours!

Definitely too early. YANBU! My boys want to go out, I've just brought them in, before 10.30 on a Sunday is sacred IMO.

Not too early. Look up noise pollution guidelines. If the tramping is new just remember they will get used to it soon and it won't be a novelty.

Trampoline. Laughing and tramping autocorrect.

School Holidays and weekends our 5DC don't get to go out the garden till 9 am.

I think it's just common decency.

We don't do any chores in the garden till after 9 am neither and I'm careful to make sure the kids are in from the garden by 8-8.30 on the week days when school is in.Just for the sake of any local families that have small children that might be in bed.

You know when you let the kids out to play on the trampoline so early in the morning you are waking us up? Oh you didn't know well you are and I would really appreciate it if you didn't or you told them to keep it down because some people would like to sleep past 7am on a weekend. Thanks.

It is too early even for noise pollution.
It is before 8am and
Noise pollution can happen at any time if it interferes with quality of life. Listening to screaming kids at 7 in the morning and being woken by them interferes with the neighbours quality of life. If op can hear them and she is a few doors down, imagine how loud it is next door.
