ToysmithSkip-A-Long Skipping Toy

I bought 2 of them for an after school care program. The kids love it. I am amazed at how quickly they master it. At first they are always afraid to try because it looks like it is so hard but within 10 minutes or less they have it down and can't get enough. They even have contests for who can last the longest without tripping or stopping. Children ages 5 to 11 all can use it and master it. With so much wear and tear I know they won't last long...i have ad to snap them back together a few times. For the price I can't complain and will replace them without hesitation if they do break.

If your child really likes skipping, then she'll probably like this. I bought this for my 7 year old and I was super excited because I used to LOVE Skip-It when I was a kid. But this is a really light piece of plastic that can be hard to get swinging, and there's no counter! I remember being super proud of myself when I saw how many times I'd skipped without tripping, but this is just a ball on a rope. Not as much fun.

Great for the value. Picked this up for my daughter. She enjoyed using this product straight out of the box. Gave it 3 stars because the product didn't last too long. Broke within the 3rd week. My daughter might have used it about 15 times or so. We got a good deal on it so I wasn't upset. Overall it is ok for the $$$. You're child will love it. Plastic with a rubber strip across the sphere. If you want something that will last, you might want to look elsewhere unless you only use this on the grass. If you use this product on the grass than you will enjoy it.

Better for more agile kids but seems to work ok. Tried it while on a 3 day Buckfast binge and fell but not the toys fault. Damn you, Bucky!

Broke on the 2nd use, but was able to use Gorilla Glue to repair, and it's holding up so far (several more uses in). For $10, not upset about having to fix it, and my daughter LOVES it!

As an 80’s kid, this toy brought back so many memories! I bought it for my 9yr old daughter for Christmas. The boys and girls at our party couldn’t get enough of it! Took them a bit to figure out the motion (I obviously had to show off my mad skills) but once they got it, they tired themselves out taking turns. Love it!

This used to be my favorite toy when I was a child and I still think it's great. The only thing is I am not as good as I used to be. So happy this is come back. I'm sure my nieces and nephews will want their own and Auntie will be happy to buy them for them

Fun, not quite the same quality of Skip-it as when I was young., but still a fun out door toy.
