lots of fun:
Very fun game for kids. But my 5 yr old is having a hard time catching the disks, I think he just needs more practice :)
The best toy purchase for Christmas!:
This toy is the most fun we have had in ages! I gave it 5 stars for educational value because it provides good hand-eye coordination practice, helps with balance and large motor skills. That is why I bought it - but it turned out the whole family loves it - even the 70 year old gramma! My only complaint would have been that the discs are easy to lose, but [...] sells replacement discs for $2 per set - you can't beat that. Great toy, very durable, and a ton of fun.
Fun but not durable:
Bought this for my nephew who loves to play catch. He loved it and played for 2 days straight. I had some problems from the start, but it worked well enough. After 2 days it broke and we had to return it. Very disappointing.
scrambling for roots suffixes and prefixes:
I used this toy in an educational setting for alternative high school students needing a multiple intelligence approach. I would give a definition of a root, prefix or suffix used on the Kansas State reading Assessment... if it was accurate you could catch a red disc if not catch a yellow disc.... some students caught while others launched and then places were traded keeping a lot of students running, thinking and engaged.
