Trampoline can get kids involved in outdoor play

Fights the Screen Battle

One of the best things about owning a trampoline is that your kids can play at home. If you just want a fun play, you don't have to head out to the park, go to a play centre, or do a paid activity. It's not only convenient but it also means that, when you have older kids, you can be getting on with things around the house while they are occupied. It is also the ultimate alternative to spending weekends, afternoons and holidays in front of the TV or other screens for many kids. There are tons of games you can create that involve the trampoline – like adding some balloons or a sprinkler – on those days when the kids need more than a simple bounce. Government research out of the United Kingdom is showing that kids are spending less time outdoors than prisoners, which equates to less than an hour a day! A trampoline is an effective tool for parents to get kids outside and into the sunshine where they belong.

Increases Vitamin D

What's more, getting exposure to sunlight while playing outdoors raises kids' levels of Vitamin D, which helps protect children from future bone problems. According to the Vitamin D Council, it also helps to improve the immune system, muscle function, cardiovascular function, the respiratory system and brain development, and even has anti-cancer benefits!
