Now I Know What Tigger Feels Like

Last night I went to a trampoline park. Trampolines are very bouncy and can help people to jump high into the air.  It was great exercise for me. My friend and I went to jump around at Rebounderz in Edison, New Jersey. What a fun time! There were a lot of workers there who helped us to do our best and to learn some tricks. We practiced our flips in the Foam Pit and we practiced dunking basketballs with the help of a trampoline too. It was a great idea for a rainy night!

I listened carefully to the rules and learned how to work on my flips safely.
Anytime I wasn't sure of something I asked someone
who worked at the trampoline park to help me.

I did some reading about trampolines and found out an amazing fact! Did you know that a long time ago (1934), a 16 year old kid helped to invent the trampoline? His name was George Nissen. Kids are so amazing and think of wonderful ideas.

Parents, please remember to foster your child's imagination this summer. Imaginations lead to creativity. Creativity leads to problem solving. Children will blow our minds, as long as we give them the freedom to show us what they can do! See what I mean by watching the video below. It has been a favorite of mine ever since my sister shared it with me two years ago. Also, check out the books below about inventions. It will be a rainy few days...a great time to visit the local library!!!
