Inflatable water trampolines should be used wisely

Inflatable water trampolines give users hours of pleasure. However, they should be used with safety in mind. Playing in water can be a danger risk, especially for children who don't know how to swim. Taking a few precautions will keep your kids safe.

Adult supervision is a must for inflatable water trampolines. Most manufacturers recommend that children using a water trampoline be at least 6 years old. A Rave Sports water trampoline needs to be anchored in water that's about 10-feet deep, which requires users to know how to swim.

It's imperative that a proper-fitting life vest be worn by children using an inflatable water trampoline. Younger children should have a vest that includes a strap between the legs and has a collar. Water wings don't offer protection against drowning.

Water trampolines should be placed far from boat docks and a good distance from the shoreline. The trampoline should be carefully inspected before each use. Wear, tear, and loose buckles and snaps are the important things to look for.
