Trampoline Sizes For Kids 9-12

[Wobbles]

When I moved we gave away our trampoline now the kids are banging my head about getting a new one. I was being a bit selfish because I hate the space those things take up.

I did plan to put a net up for games, racket games etc ... problem is the garden's easy maintenance with patios and slate so not 'flat'. I didn't think of this, it's just an ankle hazard... so trampoline it is

Now I'm wondering what size to get, it's either 8ft and 10ft ... I have no idea if the one I gave away was 10ft or 12ft Next door have one and I can't figure out if that is 6ft or 8ft either way it's too small.

Has anyone got an 8ft trampoline for ages 9-12?
How many go on at one time for just bouncing together?

I think ours is 10 or 12ft I would go with 10 rather than 8 because once the cover is on over the top it will probably only leave about 6 ft bouncing space x

Don't forget the measurement includes the frame. We got an 8ft but the jumping area is only 6ft.

We've got a 10 foot. DD plays on it with friends and our next door neighbour who's 10. We used to have an 8 foot, but it was a bit small for more than one person.

Thanks ladies.

I've gone with the 10ft.

Tesco have a plum trampoline on offer for the £95 with the net

Some other decent ones on offer over the bank holiday. Gutted because my last one was a dome and cost more than double that but I' not willing to spend that now!

We have a 10ft, I think an 8ft would be too small. I've only got a 3 year old he has plenty of room but with 2 older kids it'd be a squeeze. I say get the biggest one you can for the space you have

We need up with 10ft. Found out next doors was 8ft not 6ft so I'm glad that's what we went for x
