Key insights about video Gardening with Children: Sunken Trampolines with Dawn Isaac, Ava, Oscar and Archie Milne

🤸‍♂️ Trampolines are great for exercise and usually attract kids from the age of 2 up to teenagers.

🌱 They can be a good investment, but they can also be huge and ugly in your garden.

🕳️ Digging a hole for the trampoline is actually quite easy, and you can use a mini digger to make the process faster.

💸 Hiring a mini digger costs around 150 pounds per day, but you can also hire a person to do the digging for you, although it will be more expensive.

🌍 The topsoil that you remove can be put to the side and used later, while the subsoil may need to be taken off-site, which can incur additional costs.

🚧 To help with drainage, you can create a sump in the center of the hole and fill it with rubble and coarse sand.

⛏️ Once the hole is ready, you can simply drop the trampoline into it and make sure it is level.

🌿 Finally, you can turf around the edge of the trampoline for a finished look.
