Bum Wars

The rules are simple. Firstly, all the kids must warm up a little bit. Then, upon agreement, they drop on their bums and then they jump again to land on their feet. Every player is allowed just once bum bounce and one feet bounce. If anyone does double of any of the two, that person loses.

Popcorn
This one is another one of the most famous and loved trampoline games. So in this case, there has to be one person who sits in the middle of the trampoline by clutching their knees and holding them tight to their chest. What the other one does is that he or she jumps on the trampoline and tries to get the sitting person’s arms to open up just like a popcorn and hence the name.
Poison Balls
This game is particularly effective in case of enhancing the sensory experience of the kids. Here you have to first put a number of balls on the trampoline. Then you have to pretend as if the balls are poisonous and therefore, stay away from them. So you have to jump whenever a ball is coming near to you. The magic of the game lies in the fact that balls always roll over arbitrarily and so it is hard to guess towards whom it will come over. For enhancing the sensory experience in the game, you may add other types of items like that of stuffed toys, pillows, crumbled tin foils and so on.
