JumpKing UFO Swing

Product Information

Love them or hate them, no list of the best outdoor toys would be complete without a spot for the best trampoline. Trampolining aficionados will know that a rectangular trampoline gives a better bounce than a round one, so the Zero Gravity Ultima 5 Rectangular Barrel Trampoline is great for the experienced trampolinist who has outgrown their previous trampoline and wants to hone their skills. The advantage of our JumpKing Enclosure Covers is that you don't have to remove the safety enclosure to fit them. They fit inside the safety enclosure and cover the trampoline bed, protecting it against UV sunrays, leaves, dust, bird droppings and dirt. The cover is held in place by small hooks that attach to the edge of the trampoline bed. Trampoline covers also help to communicate to children that the trampoline is "closed" when adult supervision is not present. Contrary to popular belief, modern trampoline covers are generally not designed to keep a trampoline dry - if they were, a large puddle would appear on your trampoline after heavy rain, which would put added strain on the springs, and is not easy to remove. JumpKing Trampolines accessories offer some of the latest advances in trampoline design at very affordable prices. This cover will fit all 12ft round trampolines, whatever brand of trampoline you have. enlarge

Why you should trust us

JumpKing is, quite simply, the largest trampoline manufacturer in the world and have been manufacturing trampolines for over 20 years, gaining unrivalled experience in the trampoline market. These adult and childrens trampolines come in a variety of sizes and styles to suit every garden and budget. With millions sold worldwide, every Jumpking trampoline is manufactured to US (ASTM) and EU (TUV) standards. JumpKing has been around far longer than most trampoline manufacturers and has grown to become the world leader. The advantages of buying a JumpKing trampoline are many - the manufacturer designs its trampolines based on experience built up over many years. In addition, you will always be able to buy spare parts for your trampoline, even years later. We are still supplying spare parts to customers in the UK who bought their trampolines over ten years ago! You will see the JumpKing branded trampolines almost everywhere these days. Whereas the high street and Supermarkets generally focuses on the budget end of the product range, we focus more on the mid to upper ranges, which are designed to keep your children bouncing even after 10 years or more.

All the outdoor toys on this list have been tried and tested by Mumsnet users and their children who have recommended their favourites based on factors including entertainment value, versatility, price and age suitability. We use this method so you always know that real people are behind our recommendations. Jumpking are proud to present a new range of Greenhouses, swings, goals and footballs for outdoor activity. That said, you don’t want to splash out on an outdoor toy that turns out to be a five-minute wonder. Shop around and choose wisely. AgeReversible Pads: this later version of the pads is reversible, so you can choose either a green or blue colour. This also extends the life of the pads as they can be simply turned over to refresh the look of your trampoline in years to come. Does the toy suit the ages of the children playing with it? Some toys have a limited shelf life, while others can be used by kids from toddlerhood all the way to their teenage years and beyond. Whatever toy you opt for should be safe and appropriate for the child you’re buying for. And, of course, you should always supervise young children when using any toy that involves water. Durability Galvanised Steel Ladder for easier access. The JumpKing ladder is easy to fit - it just hooks on the frame over the outer circular metal rail. Our ladders are suitable not only for JumpKing Trampolines, but for all 10, 12 and 14 foot diameter round trampolines. enlarge My grandad treated us to a wooden picnic table where the lid comes off and you have sand inside it. It's great if you have a smallish garden because it's also somewhere for the kids to have a picnic/sit for a BBQ etc. But it’s definitely a slightly pricier option.” (Tried and tested by Mumsnetter Littlehouseinthebigcity) Our verdict When we had a small garden, we had a picnic table where the centrepiece lifted out and the middle was a sandpit or could be used as a water tray or a variety of things. It worked well for quite a while as you could change around what was in the table and they could have a picnic at the table too.” (Rated by Mumsnetter teaandcakerules)
