According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons:
- Trampolines are not recommended for children under 6 years of age.
- Trampolines should not be for unsupervised recreational activity.
- Only one participant should use a trampoline at any time.
- The trampoline jumping surface should be placed at ground level.
- The supporting bars, strings, and surrounding landing surfaces should have adequate protective padding.
- Equipment should be checked regularly for safety conditions.
- Competent adult supervision and instruction is needed for children at all times.
- Safety net enclosures may give a false sense of security – most injuries occur on the trampoline surface.
- Make sure trampoline ladders are removed after use to prevent unsupervised access by young children.
