school holidays 60mins+ per dry day.

term time, at least 30mins a day on dry days.

i have a cooleroo sun sail to set up and hopefully the trampoline and enclosure will fit inder it, so it can be used more.

DD 2.9 is mad about trampolining. Currently we only have a small toddler sized one with a hand bar and I am looking to get the next one for her. Our neighbours' children (8 and 5) have a full size adult trampoline with safety net surrounding and DD is desperate to get round there every day to play. We have friends with a smaller trampoline, again with safety net for use up to 9 years and so this seems better for us but I know she will be disappointed. Do you think the adult sized one is safe enough or am I being stupid? Finally, what is a cooleroo sun sail? - sounds like I need one!

its a big big sail that goes across the garden to give shade. my mum gave it to me. i think its waterproof as well, so should shopefully mean they can play out on it on wet days.

I have 4 dc aged 9,7,3 and 2. They all love the trampoline.
DS's live part time at their Dads but if its dry the trampoline is the first place they go when they get here.
Had 10 children here for a party saturday.All they wanted to do was go on it,was a hard job keeping them in for games!

We have had ours for 3.5 years now. In hols still +60 mins per week. Not much use last term but DS just started secondary so too much h/w (too dark) & DD doing GCSE courswork. DS did go out on it last weekend though (out this w/e so no time).

In summer they love bouncing under the sprinkler.
