Time for gymnastics

Il ne faudrait pas négliger l’aspect « défi », que l’on peut associer au trampoline. Sauriez-vous nommer 5 types de sauts différents, que vous pourriez pratiquer en compagnie de votre gymnaste favorite, à la maison?
Trampolines have their "challenges"! Can you name 5 different types of jumps to practice at home with your favorite gymnasts? Your junior Olympian can probably describe the jumps and teach you the stop, pike, group, sit, crawl, twist, candle...Just make sure the safety net around the trampoline is secure and free of holes or openings. It's also a good idea to install cushions all around and inside the trampoline, to protect your little one's feet when they're on the trampoline.

Let's get creative

Round, rectangular or square, you can transform your trampolines and accessories into a vast ocean, teeming with schools of colorful fish. Pool noodles can make wonderful eels, and the brightly colored sponges can pass as playful clownfish, turtles and starfish, etc. A toddler's imagination is limitless. You can help them boost their imagination even more… the next trip to the moon or magic carpet ride will be a real treat!

You can also introduce your children to games of skill that stimulate, for example, hand-eye coordination. Draw different targets on the trampoline with chalk and ask your youngest child to toss the "clownfish" or "sea turtle" into the square, circle, triangle, trampoline balls, etc. For school-age kids, set a score for hitting each target and ask your "little student" to throw wet sponges until they reach the mark! They'll think it's the coolest summer activity ever! | Other ways to train

Whether you have an individual trampoline or a 10- or 15-foot round outdoor trampoline model, use it as an exercise machine. Do intervals to boost your heart rate and tone your stabilizer muscles. You can improve balance to help you jump safely, as the surface is highly shock-absorbent.
And finally, transform your round trampoline into an outdoor space. It can be a giant bed for an evening of "backyard camping", or a fabulous family picnic table. Or go exotic and decorate it like Ali Baba's cave, packed with cushions and colorful draperies!
