Collection: Trampolines

A kids trampoline gives active, energetic play, but it needs the right safety setup and enough space. As an outdoor trampoline with net, the most important feature is a safety enclosure net that stops falls off the edge. Size, shape and weight rating matter too, along with a clear, soft fall zone around it. Trampolines suit a decent-sized yard and need supervision, especially for younger children. Start with the space you have and the age of the kids using it, then check the safety features.

What safety features should a trampoline have?

A trampoline's safety comes down to a few key features:

• Enclosure net: a full safety net around the edge stops the main injury cause — falling or bouncing off. This is essential.
• Padded spring cover: covers the springs and frame edge so kids don't land on them.
• Sturdy frame: a rust-resistant galvanised frame that stays stable.
• Clear fall zone: soft ground and clear space around and above, away from fences and washing lines.

What size trampoline do you need?

Match the trampoline size to your yard and the kids. A small trampoline suits a toddler or a compact yard; a larger round or oval one suits older children and more space. Round trampolines direct bouncers back to the middle, which is safer for solo play; rectangular ones give a bigger, more even bounce. Leave clear space of at least a couple of metres around the trampoline and nothing overhead. Check the weight rating suits the heaviest user, and don't exceed the recommended number of jumpers at once. Measure your yard, allow the safety clearance, then choose the size.

How do you keep trampoline play safe?

Beyond the net, safe use matters most. One child at a time is the single biggest injury-reducer, since most trampoline injuries happen when children collide or a smaller one is bounced by a bigger one. Keep the enclosure net zipped shut during use, supervise young children, and no somersaults, which cause neck injuries. Set it on soft ground, clear of fences, walls and washing lines. Check the net, springs and padding regularly for wear. A net, one jumper at a time, supervision and no flips together prevent most trampoline injuries.

Common questions

What age can a child use a trampoline?
Small trampolines suit toddlers under supervision; larger ones suit older children. Check the age and weight rating, and supervise young children closely, since most injuries happen to under-6s.

Do trampolines need a safety net?
Yes — an enclosure net is the most important safety feature, stopping falls off the edge, which cause most trampoline injuries. Keep it zipped shut during use.

How many kids can jump at once?
One at a time is safest, since most injuries happen when children collide or a smaller child is bounced by a bigger one. Take turns rather than piling on together.

How much space does a trampoline need?
Leave at least a couple of metres clear around it, with nothing overhead like branches or washing lines, and set it on soft ground away from fences and walls.
