Trampolines

The backyard will never be the same - U.S. Pediatricians are urging parents to keep kids off trampolines at home and at the playground. The docs say emergency departments across the country see nearly 100,000 injuries from the bouncy mats each year. It's estimated that the number of trampoline injuries nationwide has been dropping - from 111,851 cases treated at ERs in 2004, to 97,908 in 2009. But that doesn't necessarily mean the devices have become any safer.
