We all know how addictive and fun trampolines are for children. Unfortunately, we often find that children have some safety accidents caused by playing on the trampoline. This is entire because the children do not understand proper safety precautions before they start jumping.
As a parent, it is important to monitor trampoline activities to ensure the safety of your children. Here are some tips to keep your child safe while on the trampoline.
Do not allow tumbling
Tumbling presents more opportunities for injury. If your child wants to tumble, consider enrolling them in gymnastics, where a professional can teach them how to tumble safely with the right equipment.
Consider trampoline placement
The placement of the trampoline is important. It should be on a flat, level surface. Avoid cement or hard surfaces and try to place the trampoline on soft, cushiony surfaces like grass. Try to place it in a relatively open area, with few trees, keeping other objects like tools and toys far away. If you don’t have space like this, reconsider purchasing a trampoline as it could present immediate safety concerns.
Maintain the trampoline
Pack your trampoline away in the winter so the natural elements don’t weaken or destroy it. Check the trampoline netting, padding, poles, and screws each month to make sure everything is still tight, attached, and secure. There shouldn’t be any holes or deflated cushioning. It’s wise to also install a safety net upon purchasing a trampoline.
One child at a time
There should only be one child jumping on the trampoline at any time. More than one child increases the chance of an accident.
Never leave your child alone
Kids should always have an adult spotter to watch them while they’re jumping. That way if there’s an injury, an adult can be there immediately to assist.
Take injuries seriously
For children, it is important that parents take seriously any injuries they receive on the trampoline. If you see your child feel pain while playing, make sure they rest, lift and apply ice to the injured area. As always, stop using the trampoline before your child recovers from the injury.
