Geospace Sparkler LED Whip 'N Skip Ankle Skip Rope with Motion-Activated Lights & Built-in Counter
An oldie-but-goodie... for good reason, the LED WHIP 'N SKIP ankle skipper has kept up with on-the-go kids for generations! A fun way to build coordination, endurance, and to burn energy, our updated version's built-in revolution counter and six flashing LEDs kick the fun up a notch, so kids can cook up friendly competitions with themselves or other kids. Takes 3x AG13 batteries (included); cord is 30" long. For ages 5 and up. <br /> <br /> Kids love to move. Our updated new version of a classic toy from the 90's with LED lights has kids hopping like frenzied frogs for hours on end. Why is the Sparkler WHIP 'N SKIP so mesmerizing? Though the basic movement is easy to learn, it's a challenge to keep it going, a feat of balance, endurance, and coordination. And of course, it has motion-activated LED lights to the delight of kids. <br /> <br /> To play, simply attach the WHIP 'N SKIP's tether to one leg and begin rolling the ball on the ground in a circular pattern around your body. With each revolution, your other leg must hop or skip over the tether. Kids get their competitive juices flowing to see who can go the longest and fastest, as the ball's built-in counter records every revolution. Players devise different ways of moving the ball, and imagine all sorts of games and challenges. It's a great way to burn off energy, and kids don't even realize they're getting an invigorating workout!
