Our boys LOVE the trampoline. Colin and I were hesitant about buying one. We never wanted one due to all the injuries you hear surrounding them. However, after talking to people who have and have had them, and how many injuries *actually* happened and if they did, WHY they happened, we decided to take the plunge (and thanks to grandparents for Christmas and birthday money) and get one.
It's almost the best investment we've ever made. Our Ethan, who tends to be a bit awkward and has challenges with gross motor skills, has completely astounded us with what he's willing to do on that trampoline. It has given him so much confidence and so much body awareness and control. For that alone, it's worth it.
And Silas just loves it because it's so darn fun! That is also worth the investment. They are outside on that thing every single day it is not raining. No other toy that has ever been bought for these children has gotten so much use and enjoyment. I hope it will continue to do so for many, many more years.
Enjoy the following videos. Oh, and never mind the videographer's very "skilled" ending to Ethan's video. Heh.

I love the videos! For one, (and I guess I'm a flake) it is nice to put a voice with a name and face. And I just love sweet little 2 year old voices!!! Watching your boys *almost* makes me want a trampoline for my kids...almost. :)
