Any ideas on how to cover trampoline corner holes?

We have a 8'x16' rectangle trampoline that has been inset into the ground, and it has good padding around all of the springs and the frame. The problem with this setup is that on rectangle trampolines, there are holes in each of the four corners that are about 2.5 feet wide that don't have springs or the side cover, and little kids can fall into those holes. I haven't been able to find anything specifically made to cover the holes, but I would really like to do it, if it is possible.
Any ideas on what we could use that would be strong enough to hold a kid who accidentally steps/falls into the hole, and yet is also soft enough to not hurt them if that happens? It has to be somehow attachable to a trampoline frame also.

You could use just about any padding with a nylon fabric cover. How you secure is likely more important that what it is made out of.
Are you going to sew together something?

Cover them up with small children.

We don't have anything specific planned yet, but if we could sew something together to cover it, we would try that. You think nylon would be strong enough to hold a kid who fell into the hole?

I tried googling it for a while, but I couldn't find anything for it. Maybe I was using the wrong google phrases though.
