Jeff is truly Superdad. With very little help from me, he assembled the trampoline by the light of the moon so that it would be ready for the kids in the morning. Wyatt was very excited to see the giant blue structure in the backyard, but managed to contain his need to bounce until after breakfast. We did not heed the warnings on the box (not suitable for children under 3, only one jumper at a time) and instead, we adopted the Aussie attitude on child safety, and we put all 3 kids on the trampoline at once. Wyatt was instantly a pro, having enjoyed gymnastic classes back home. Maddy enjoys the rush and likes to run around in circles saying "Circle, circle, circle." while Cooper was a bit shy of the trampoline until he realized that it bounces better than his crib mattress at which point he pulled out his favorite move - a big jump with a bum landing. So far it seems to be a good investment - it is in our backyard so there is NO transit time, no batteries are required, jumping tires the kids out, there is no fighting over who "has" the trampoline and they haven't taken to WWF moves just yet. The only down side is that it will not be returning to Canada with us so Fern Avenue may lose some "cool" points in the kids eyes.
