Trampoline for Christmas?

We are thinking about getting our kids a trampoline for Christmas because I have heard that they are good for those with cf. For safety we are going to make sure one just bounces at a time and we are planning on getting the net around it. Before we make this decision it would help to know if any of you with cf have found that trampolines do in fact help you cough. Thanks!

i've had trampolines. they didn't make me cough any more than any other activity - bike riding, roller blading, playing tennis, etc. But they sure are fun!

It worked great for me, but also made me pee my pants all the time. Even if I went to the bathroom just before. NOW THAT IS EMBARASSING!

i think it is a great idea! it is something i have even considered as an adult. it is wonderful exercise but you don't notice because you are having so much fun. i have also heard it helps to cough stuff up and that sure makes sense to me.

I LOVED jumping on trampolines when I was younger. I never really paid attention to how much I coughed while using it though.

I will say this though - a friend of ours has a 4 yr old with CF and they got a trampoline for her and their older daughter (their son is not old enough to jump on it yet - 2 yrs). They told me that she seems to clear alot out when she jumps on it and shortly afterwards.

Take Care and Happy Holidays,
Lindsey

Trampolines are excellent, great for exercise and because of the exercise coughs usually come. I think the mini trampolines work better because thay are harder (my daughter has both) But the outside one is more fun<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> we used the mini one when it was raining.

I'd say go for it<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

i used a trampoline when i was a kid and it worked great, and it was a blast to use. even used one a bit when i got older but it was just too hard on my knees.
i would buy it. if anything your kids will at least have fun with it.
