The Original Toy Company Trampoline

This trampoline has a cute blue/yellow/red color pattern and is basically tied for first place with the Bazoongi, you can’t really go wrong with either of them. It folds up into a really compact footprint that can fit in a small closet or trunk, which is a big plus. Sometimes it’s nice to put these things away for a month or two, then take back out for renewed interest! It has no metal springs, instead using a series of heavy duty elastic straps, which are excellent.

While bungee cord attachments tend to break after 8-12 months of heavy use, these elastric straps have proven themselves far superior, lasting for several years. We also thought this was one of the easiest trampolines to unfold and set up in our test living room, and liked that it used 6 instead of 4 legs to increase stability and safety. It also felt very sturdy and well built. This 36″ diameter trampoline also has the highest weight limit we could find, coming in at 150 pounds (!) so even mom might be able to have some fun!

Now for the fun parts: it has a nice wide bouncing surface, has a great bouncy elastic to the trampoline itself while still being firm enough to prevent kids from jumping too high, and a padded upper handlebar. This trampoline ended up #1 on our list for four primary reasons: first, it uses the elastic straps rather than the unreliable bungee cord, second it has a very high weight limit, third because it feels very sturdy with its 6 leg design, and finally it is super easy to assemble (took about 10 minutes).

The only downfall, like some others, is that once your kid gets heavier they might put more weight on the handlebar and make the back of the trampoline lift off the ground during jumping. While we highly doubt it would ever actually tip over, once your kid gets a bit bigger (60+ pounds) you might want to consider putting a little weight on the back legs (like a dumbell or bag of sand/rocks).

Best Trampoline for Kids and Baby

Image
Over the past few years we have tested over two dozen different trampolines. Some designed for toddlers ages 2-3 or so, and others designed for bigger kids aged 4-7 or so. There are also much larger ones for bigger kids aged 8+ and we include one of those in the list below, simply because we’ve had such great experiences with it. We focus primarily on toddler trampolines and “big kid” trampolines: The toddler trampolines usually are smaller, provide less of an elevated bounce, and have an attached handlebar with padding to ease kids into learning how to bounce on their own. These are very low to the ground (usually 4-6″), usually have a weight capacity under 80 pounds, and use either springs or bungee cords to hold the jumping surface onto the frame. Our boys have never fallen off one of these (knock on wood!), even in the beginning, and they are not the most coordinated boys in the world! But they have succeeded in bouncing the trampoline into oblivion and breaking t

Nikon Z 6

Image
Nikon is new to the full frame mirrorless category, and while the Nikon Z 6 may not be quite as refined as Sony’s third generation, the new camera still packs a powerful punch. The Z 6 uses a 24.5-megapixel full frame sensor that captures excellent images. DxOMark ranks it right below the Sony a7 III by a single point. The camera body also has stabilization built-in. This can help in those low light shots if the baby isn’t moving around. As part of Nikon’s new mirrorless series, the Z 6 has access to a lot of existing Nikon lenses using an adapter. This could be reason enough to choose the Z 6 for photographers that already own some Nikkor glass. Like most mirrorless cameras, there’s a silent electronic shutter for when being quiet matters. And the Z 6 is even faster than the a7 III with a 12 fps, though that’s in an extended mode with a few limitations. The Z 6 is lighter than Nikon’s DSLRs, though not by a lot if you use a heavier Z lens or once you add t
