What should I look for when buying a trampoline for my kids?

Of course, safety should always be your top priority when buying a trampoline. However, aside from all the safety features mentioned before, there is a whole host of other features which could make a trampoline more or less appealing

Firstly, consider the size. Most small trampolines are designed for indoor use only, so you have to have space to use it. If you don’t have enough floor space to fit a trampoline that’s seven feet wide, then you’re going to have to consider something a little smaller.

Storage plays a part, as well. Chances are that your kids are going to fall in love with their new trampoline so you’ll keep it up all the time, but what about those rare occasions when you need to store it away somewhere? Look for a trampoline that’s just as easy to disassemble as it is to assemble, so that you won’t spend hours trying to get it stashed away discreetly.

Alternatively, is it important to you to have a trampoline that you can use and keep outdoors? As mentioned before, most trampolines are designed to be used indoors, but not all. Read the details of each trampoline carefully to find out where it can be used: the last thing you want is to buy a trampoline to use outdoors, only to see the frame rusting and the padding perishing within weeks.

You should also consider the weight limit of each trampoline. The low weight limits found with some of the smaller trampolines might work for a toddler, but what if a friend or sibling wants to jump at the same time?

Remember that kids grow quickly, so if you go for a weight limit that’s too near to your child’s own weight, then you won’t get a huge amount of use out of it as you’ll have to upgrade quickly.

Lastly, look to see if the trampolines come with any added extras. Something small like a shoe bag might not be a make or break factor, but it might just be the cherry on top to help you decide between two very similar models.

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...
