Bungee Jumper

Dawson received this cool bungee jumper for his birthday. It's essentially a big bouncy foam pad that he stands on attached to an elastic band and handle that he holds onto with his hands. It really works too - with some assistance from me he's able to bounce really high. He can't do it very well on his own yet, as he doesn't really get the concept of pulling the band taunt as he jumps so there is a lot of slack. He had lots of fun trying it out the other day.

Poised to bounce.

I love this action shot with his wild and crazy face as he bounces.

Doing a pretty good job.
