Winnipeg parents: Trampolines bust back to school stress

Back to school season is back in Winnipeg, which means the unfortunate end of sleep-in days and the return of the horror movie soundtrack called the alarm clock. It’s a time when kids swap their sunscreen for spiral notebooks and their summer freedom for a fresh batch of inventive excuses to stay in bed just a little longer.

But hold onto your lunchboxes, folks, because there’s a cure to the back to school blues conveniently located across the street from a Costco on St. James Street: Flying Squirrel indoor trampoline fun park.

Here are a few reasons why Flying Squirrel in Winnipeg can help eradicate your kid’s back to school stress:

 

1. Melt stress faster than ice cream in the September sun

Jumping on trampolines at Flying Squirrel in Winnipeg triggers a rapid release of endorphins, the body's natural stress-relievers. These hormones flood the system when your kids are in mid-air, effectively reducing stress and anxiety that often come with the new school year.

 

2. Bounce to better bedtimes

Engaging in physical activities like trampolining at Flying Squirrel in Winnipeg can significantly improve your child's sleep quality. The rigorous physical exertion helps regulate sleep patterns by making it easier for them to fall asleep and enjoy a deeper, more restful night. This not only makes mornings less hectic but also helps your children stay alert and focused throughout their school day.

 

3. Live in present moment

Bouncing on a trampoline at Flying Squirrel offers a healthy form of escape for kids, allowing them to literally jump away from their daily stresses. The repetitive, rhythmic motion of jumping can be meditative, helping kids to focus solely on fun, which anchors them firmly in the present moment. This immersive activity diverts their attention from worries or anxieties, providing a joyful break where problems seem to temporarily vanish.

 

4. Boost brain power with every bounce

It might sound too good to be true but regular trampoline exercise at Flying Squirrel not only alleviates stress but also enhances cognitive function. The increased blood flow to the brain during physical activity actually helps to sharpen concentration and memory, making it easier for kids to focus on their studies and stay engaged in the classroom. However, be warned: this enhanced mental clarity might also turn them into mini masterminds capable of circumnavigating even the most cunning of your household rules.

 

At Flying Squirrel Indoor Trampoline Park in Winnipeg, not only do the kids get their fill of flipping and flying, but they also get a mega-dose of playtime to turbocharge both their brains and bodies.
