Trampolining has become really popular in the last few years. It gives
children a great opportunity to burn off energy while you can watch safely
from the side lines, unless you have a pelvic floor considerably stronger
than mine in which case you might want to join in too. If you have a
preschooler it's worth taking them to a dedicated session because they can
easily get thrown over when bigger people jump near by.
Most of the Trampolining Parks have a big range of activities rather than just trampolines for jumping on including ninja runs, wipe out and more.
Where to go trampolining in Essex including toddler and preschooler sessions |
There are risks with trampolining and it isn't uncommon to get injuries
which is why you will be asked to sign a waiver before entry. Make sure your child is aware of any safety guidance before jumping. Most, if not
all, trampoline parks will require you to wear special socks and they often
want you to purchase theirs rather than use socks from another venue,
something to consider when working out the cost of your first visit. It is recommended you arrive 20 to 30 minutes before your booked session starts (varies between sites).
