This is like tether-ball, just with a tennis type ball you hit back and forward with paddles. This toy offers hours of fun for the whole family day after day, indoors (if you have enough room) or outdoors.  The base has a handle, it all stores in the bottom and locks, you can put water in the bottom or sand to stabilize it.  We have had it full of sand in our yard for over a month now and the kids play with it(including mom) every single day, all four of my older ones, in the rain, sun, and snow!  Plus all the neighborhood kids love it!  Wow, I never thought this would be such a hit!  Thank you to my mom for getting this for my oldest sons Christmas!  I love the idea we can take this on trips with us anywhere from friends and family, road trips, and even camping!  Thank you Spin Master, I rate this product a Family Fun must have!

Keep your kids on their toes running around indoors on a rainy day, in the classroom or outdoors.  See who can run around the room the quickest picking up the 5 disk.  3 different modes, play individually, in pairs, or teams.  This offers hours of active fun, there is no limit on how far apart you put the disk.  This is an awesome get off your butt and move game, no cons...I rate this game 5 outta 5...
