No, its not like that one Green-ish, that's a solid plastic castle. Maybe you attached the wrong attachment? So, I've failed, grandaughter is 2 today and I couldn't find a small trampoline anywhere. The 10' ones are very high off the ground and much, much too large for a toddler. Can't believe Early Learning Centre have them in their catalogues, but not one in Dubai. Dragging an old one up...but maybe it's not too late for a belated trampoline gift?? The picture I included was of a plastic climbing thingy like the one we used for our trampoline as a safe entry/exit climber for young children. I thought you could go with the bigger trampoline and the plastic slide. Our 10ft trampoline was under 800dhs at TRU and we bought the slide second-hand on dubizzle for 50dhs. Hope you're granddaughter had a lovely birthday. :)

Thank you starfishalicja and bananaisland. Just checked my notes and Toy Store MOE said the smallest trampoline they had was 8 feet and AED 4,200! and they are so high off the ground I deemed it too large. Had a very hectic Birthday day with g-d yesterday without trampoline, but still great fun. Her party for all the little ones is on Saturday, so I will try Toy Store and Geant in Ibn Batutta and hope to get one in our garden for then. Thanks for your help ladies.

It's not too late yet the day has only just started :) GEANT has 6' trampolines. They have a kangaroo on the jumping area. They open at 9:30 in IBN Batutta mall. Also The ToyStore in Batutta has 6' trampolines. Both deliver :) Good Luck :)

Shell...are you looking at the one with the enclosure? We bought one that was quite high off the ground when my older children were almost 2 and 4 yrs old. We put one of those small plastic slides at the entry point for easy and safe entry/exit. (similar to this - http://www.playsafekids.com.au/product.asp?id=115 )

Sun and Sand Sports Shops don't have them ad Go Sports don't either. Any other suggestions?

Toys R Us have them starting at 8' only, which means they are about 1metre off the ground. Little grandaughter isn't 1m off the ground. Will try to call the sportshops, thanks.

Ok, its my beloved grandaughter's birthday tomorrow and we want to get her a small trampoline. We've been looking at the Early Learning Centre Catalogue for 3 months or so and decided on the 6' one. I went to ELC in Motor City about 2 weeks ago, they didn't have it in stock but promised to find one and call me back. No call as usual. So, a couple of days ago I went to ELC at Arabian Ranches, again they promised faithfully to call me back as I told them Motor City branch didn't. No call again, so I went in today and they said that that catalogue is old, pointed out the front cover, AUTUMN/ WINTER 2010. He said they were sold out months ago when the trampolines came in stock. Now its grandaughter's birthday tomorrow and I desperately need a small trampoline. Has anyone seen them in the shops? Phone number please? Thanks ladies
