Cool Idea: Trampoline Tent

My brother and sister and I did a fair amount of backyard camping when we were kids, but if we'd had one of these trampoline tents, it would've been impossible for our parents to get us in the house.

This tent fixture ($250, plus delivery from the UK) clips onto the edge of a circular trampoline, converting it into a tent or backyard playhouse for kids. It features four windows and two zip-up doors, and comes with a waterproof fly sheet. Do you know any kids who'd dig this?

    I love it! I used to camp on my friends trampolines all the time when I was a kid! Its also good for saftey, I've seen lots of near broken arms/legs from kids flying off of them.

    My kids would love this and it's probably the only way my husband would agree to getting a trampoline because the kids probably wouldn't get hurt as easily and would get more use out of the thing.

    That is
    AWESOME!
    I've always loved laying on a trampoline because you get to be outside without being close to dirt and bugs (even flying bugs don't seem to bother me much on a trampoline). Plus it's more comfortable than a hammock. This would be great! I'd definitely sleep in it. I don't think it's meant for jumping inside of, because it's too low, but that would be a good idea too.

    That is hilarious because when I was little we used to set up a real tent on our trampoline and sleep out there some nights. It was so much fun because it was bouncy and you didn't have to worry about crawly bugs and other small animals! That's great.

    I want one! It's such a whimsical way to camp out in the yard. I wouldn't use it while jumping, but definitely for campouts.

    I don't know about the trampoline part but as a tent it would be the best thing for me because it would keep me away from the bugs on the ground! I LOVE IT.

    very fun! tempted to get another trampoline...our last one was used so much by the neighborhood that it finally split. One broken finger and a lot of dead grass was well worth the abundant laughter we gained from having the trampoline for our kids (and me Smiling. think the tent feature is a fun addition!

    Very cool....it's a "treehouse" that doesn't nedd a tree and it's fairly low to the ground for minimal chance of injury! I really like this idea...too bad my granddaughter's only 14 months old!!!

    when i was a kid we would put sleeping bags in the back of my dads pickup truck because i refused to sleep on the ground (we lived on a lake, creepy crawlies) THIS would have been so much cooler.

    That's awesome! A couple years ago I got my little sister a trampoline for her b-day and she seems to be getting a little bored with it, so if this wasn't soo expensive I would definetly be getting this for her (I probably will end up getting it for her because I'm the coolest big sis in the world)

    I think the real question here is, "What kid WOULDN'T want this?" Screw being a kid, I want one NOW! =D
