Create Your Own Soccer Ball
Kids three and up are capable of putting this miniature plastic soccer ball together, unfolding it, and taking it with them everywhere!

Perfect for springtime, and much easier on the toes than an actual soccer ball!
2 Dodgetag , $24.99 $24.99
Hit the Target!
This game is ideal for two players – two siblings, say, who need a safe way to vent their natural aggression, or two pals who ought to put down those joysticks and get out into the yard! Strap the adjustable velcro vests on and split up the soft balls – then it’s an all-out arms race! Dodge, duck, throw, run, slide, and dive! Whoever gets all three balls stuck to their opponents vest is the victor! Safe for kids five and up.
3 Stomp Rocket Jr. Glow , $21.99 $21.99
Shoot to Space!
Have you ever been so excited about warm weather you just HAD to stomp something? Throw in a glowing rocket, and this is your guy! Ideally sized for hands and feet as young as three, all you have to do is connect to the vinyl hose the blast pad, and LEAP onto it to launch the glow-in-the-dark rocket up to 100 feet into the big, wide universe. Fantastic gift for backyard contests, long summer nights, and birthday parties!

6 Flashflight Flying Frisbee , $24.99 $24.99
Light Up Flying Disc
Frisbee is a time-honored American classic – it’s about time it got jazzed up with blinking lights!
