Toys that get kids active outside grab my attention. They are a double whammy because they combine fun and physical activity.

Run, Jump & Stomp to Launch Rockets

Kids run, jump, and stomp to launch foam rockets up to 400 feet in the air!

This gift can inspire children to go into a STEM career building rockets or becoming an astronaut!
