Place for the gymnast
|
|
We should not neglect the "challenge" aspect, which can be associated with the trampoline . Can you name 5 different types of jumps that you could practice with your favorite gymnast at home?
It's a safe bet that your little athlete could not only identify them, but also teach you the mechanics of the stop jump, pike, tuck, sit, 4-legged, twist, the chandelle... Make sure you simply, at this time, that the protection net all around the trampoline will be tight and free of small openings. There are also many types of protective cushions that you can place all around, inside, to ensure the safety of the little toes who venture there.

Stimulate creativity
|

Whether it is round, rectangular or square, did you know that, for a moment, your trampoline can turn into a giant ocean, where a multitude of varied fish will have fun twirling around? Pool noodles make wonderful eels and colorful sponges represent clown fish, turtles and starfish etc. so well.
The imagination of toddlers is limitless. Help them to develop it even more; you could be really surprised by your next lunar trip or your next magic carpet ride!
You could also offer various games of skill to your children to stimulate, for example, hand-eye coordination. Add balls for the trampoline . Draw on your trampoline , using chalk, different targets of various shapes and then ask your little one to throw the "clownfish" or the "sea turtle" inside the square, circle, of the triangle...
Also, if he is of school age, you could indicate a different score for each target and ask your "little schoolboy" to reach a certain number of points, by throwing wet sponges. Everything will quickly become the fun and refreshing event of the summer!

Train differently
|
|
Whether you have an individual trampoline or a 10 or 15 foot round outdoor trampoline , you can use it as a training device. It is ideal for performing intervals, which will stimulate your heart rates and awaken your stabilizing muscles. You will improve your balance and be able to jump safely, since the surface will absorb a very large part of the shocks.
Finally, why not transform your trampoline and use it as additional outdoor space? Surely, it would make a wonderful giant bed to fall asleep on, an evening of "backyard camping", or even a wonderful table for a family picnic. And what about a grandiose metamorphosis into a sublime Ali Baba's cave, filled with cushions and colorful draperies?
