Trampoline!



I finally got around to setting up the trampoline that Garrett got for Christmas. We decided not to spend the extra money for one with handles because we thought he would hurt himself. But right now, I'm almost wishing that this one had a handle. Garrett doesn't have the core strength to stay balanced while he jumps. He's all over the place. I can stand there and hold his hands, but then he wants me to pull him and make him jump. I want him to do it on his own, so this might take a little while to get used to.

  1. I don't know if this would work, but just a thought...maybe you could put the trampoline next to the arm of the couch. He could put his hands on the couch and jump, but if he fell, the couch would be soft enough that he wouldn't get hurt.
