Have you ever heard the saying, “the family that plays together, stays together?” We believe strongly that time spent playing together as a family is important for you and your children.

Spending time with you outside of your normal routine is important for your children’s development. The more time spent with, and positive attention received from the most important adult in their life (You!), the happier, healthier, and better adjusted your children will be.

If you need more to convince you, here are some well known benefits of playing together as a family. Come on down to Rebounderz in Sterling to experience these first-hand.

Encourage learning

When your children see you trying new things, playing without being self conscious, and having fun, they learn to do the same. When children feel empowered to try new things and explore, they develop self confidence and a desire to learn. If you are willing to try something new, your kids will be too. Learning to play dodgeball on the trampoline sounds like a pretty fun way to help your child build a strong sense of self that will serve them in their social interactions, academic endeavors, and family relationships.  

Getting closer

We think this hardly needs any explanation. A day spent laughing, learning, falling, and getting back up in an environment, like a trampoline arena, can’t do anything but bring you and your family closer together. Let all of the stress of chores, homework, and carpools behind and spend a day just having fun. Your kids will thank you for it.

Sibling bonding

Do you have kids who don’t always get along with each other? Is there competition for attention? Are they seemingly always bickering, or are feelings often hurt? Sometimes, siblings fight. There’s no way around that. But there is a lot that you can do to help them develop healthy relationships that can last well into adulthood. Providing your children with an opportunity to try new things, where they are responsible for looking out for each other without intervention from you, is a great place to start. We think Rebounderz is a great place to start them off building a better relationship. Just imagine how great it would be if your kids came home from a day at the trampoline park with stories about how they encouraged and supported each other, instead of complaining or fighting. They’ll be so proud of themselves that they’ll want to have more bonding experiences.

Reducing stress

Quality time with family reduces stress for you and for your children. It is easy to forget that when we are stressed out about our adult lives, our children can feel it. If we don’t take the time to decompress, our children won’t either. Playing together in an environment like Rebounderz, will benefit you and your kids. They’ll get to experience seeing you worry-free and know that it is okay for them not to worry either.

Setting a lasting example

Our kids learn by watching what we do much more than listening to what we say. If you want your child to grow up to be the kind of parent that spends time playing with their kids and planning special experiences for them, just because; then you need to be that kind of parent. We think this is a great reason to get the whole gang in the car right now and head on over to Rebounderz in Sterling.

Come see us any time. And, don’t forget to ask us about private events, birthday parties, and other ways you can enjoy the trampoline arena with your family. We look forward to welcoming you all for your next family-fun-time outing!
