Stomp Rocket Jr. Glow Kit

Item Description

Editorial Critique
Children can get rid of some excess energy with this air-powered outdoor rocket toy. No battery or fuel is necessary to get the rockets airborne--just some old-fashioned stomping power. Set up the basic launch stand in a clear outdoor location, connect the 38-inch-extended vinyl air hose and blast pad, load one of the 9-inch yellow foam rockets--and watch out. Our five-year-old assistant reviewer really got a kick out of jumping on the purple blast-off pad and watching her rockets soar 50 feet or extra, although she had to fight the adults for a turn. If the three rockets included with the kit are not sufficient entertaining, you can order stomp parachutes and spin copters from the manufacturer. --Marianne Painter
Stomp on the Launch Pad and a blast of air propels the Stomp Rocket more than 100 feet in the air! The kit comes with 4 glow in the dark foam rockets. Outstanding Birthday Party Gift! Fun for the whole family.

Customer Critiques

First a description of the Junior Stomp Rocket. Kit comes with a plastic rectangular "stomp pad" connected to a flexible tube. The finish of the tube connects to 1 of the foam rockets (four are includeded in the kit). There is a compact plastic stand that you can put together to use as a launch base. Snap the plastic tube onto the base and stomp on the pad. Air is shot through the tube and propels the foam rocket up into the air. The Junior Stomp Rocket advertises that rockets will soar as high as 100 feet. The Product lists age range as 3-eight years.
The only true difference I identified with the Ultra Stomp Rocket is that the foam rockets are a little larger. Other than that, the equipment is specifically the identical. The Ultra Stomp Rocket advertises that rockets will soar as high as 200 feet (possibly since they are larger and shaped slightly differently). The product lists age range as 8-12 years.
Each goods list for a similar cost. Refill Rockets for both the Junior and Ultra models come in varying colors and sell (at least on Amazon) for beneath $ten.
No matter if you obtain the Junior Stomp Rocket (listed here) or it's sister product Ultra Stomp Rocket, you will be receiving a wonderful toy! This toy is so basic - no assembly necessary, no batteries, just effortless to use and loads of enjoyable!
I first bought the Junior Stomp Rocket for my 4 year old for christmas. He LOVED it! We had just had a snow storm, so we were delayed in taking the kit outside for a handful of days, but my son swiftly modified the toy so that he holds the stomp pad beneath his arm and points the rocket and shoots the missiles about the house. For the reason that the rockets are foam, they do not do any harm to walls, furnishings, (or mom and dad, thankfully). When we had been able to take it outside, my son literally played with this toy for hours adjusting the direction, and playing about with how challenging you require to stomp to get the rocket to go certainly high. What a amazing toy!
I just bought the Ultra Stomp Rocket for a birthday party my son attended. The gift was a major hit there too! There was no distinction in skill essential among the Junior and Ultra models.
I would recommend either the Junior or Ultra Stomp Rockets. I see no reason why the Ultra version is rated such a higher age range. The only factor I found in favor of the junior version was the glow in the dark refill rockets. Junior Stomp Rocket Toy Glow in the Dark Refills. For some cause, the glow in the dark refills only come in the "junior" size.

I purchased this rocket toy for my 4-year old son. It took me 1 minute to set it up in a park. My son was able to launch the rocket into the sky quickly. Within many minutes, the toy attracted a dozen youngsters in the park. They lined up to get a opportunity to play. All children really like it (ranging from 3-8 years old). They played for even more than an hour. At the finish, many parents approached me and asked exactly where I have bought them. I told them they can get it from Amazon.com.
