AMEN!! Now if I could just grow some b*lls I would say it. Will you could say it

for me, I promise to stand right behind ya LOL

Re: Mini Tramp Safety questions

i'd say the only safety precaution you should take is to stay away

from your inlaws :-P

seriously, the tramp is what, a foot off the ground? he could get

more hurt jumping on the bed!

if they want to pay for a full size tramp with a safety enclosure,

then let them, otherwise tell them to butt out

Right now I am leaning toward the no handle one because of the cost and I doubt

would hold onto the handle (He is 2.5) plus (and keep in mind I have not

seen the handled one in person) I am wondering if he won't use, will it be in

the way or does it lay down and is short not even 3 feet so I'm not sure

he could reach it. I will try to find a link to one and see the measurements.

Which one are you getting?

I'm short on money too, so IF I get one, it will have to be the $20 one.

That way, if he doesn't use it, I won't be out a lot, but this kid LOVES

jumping on the bed, so I doubt that will be a problem. LOL!

Thanks ! Last time I looked there, they didn't have them, only the

Re: Mini Tramp Safety questions

The Wal-Mart website has them for 19.99 plus I think it was $7 to ship to

Maine. I am going to wait until the local Wal-Mart can get one in. I found

one of the square ones with the handle for $70ish on a website if you are

interested in that I will find the link.

Hey, if you don't feel safe with the tramp, just buy him a cheap twin

mattress and throw it on the floor for him! Just make sure it's a really

bouncy one!

experiences...As well as the experiences I have had in the classroom

Well, actually, they may not be very tactful, but they are right

about needing some safety precautions...mini-tramps can cause serious

injuries if not used properly.

Rules?

* Make sure the mini-tramp is far enough away from hard furniture,

sharp corners, and windows that if the child loses his bearings, he

won't fall into something that could hurt him.

* Teach him to jump holding your hands...I have hold my

forearms, and I hold his---it's a secure grip.

* Teach him to walk onto the mini-tramp, not run and jump into it, as

many kids do...losing your footing can cause toes to get caught under

the vinyl edging and the kid takes a nose dive to the floor. Twisted

ankles, bruise knees, possible bloody lip.

That's what I can think of for now...if I remember any others, I'll

post them.

Ignore them and get a mini-tramp. Even autistic kids are smart enough to

know that don't want to hurt themselves.

Me too. But that's a lot different from accidental hurt.

Boone doesn't like to cause his own pain unless he's pissed. Them he bangs

his head. No kamikazes off the trampoline so far.

To be honest we kept our old sofa cushions for safety. The funny thing is

that's what she uses to jump most of the time. So if you can't find a tramp

check out on trash day for someone throwing away an old sofa and steal a

couple cushions LOL
