My children are very careful when they play on the trampoline. I allow two of them at a time because they say it's no fun alone. There isn't any harm in that, is there?

The majority of trampoline injuries happen when more than one child is bouncing on a trampoline. No matter how careful children are, accidents happen. When two people are on the trampoline, the one who is the lightest in weight has the highest risk of being injured.

If the heavier child lands on the canvas followed by the lighter one, the heavier child can rebound onto the lighter child, causing injury.
