Stay Active is a range of family-inclusive toys that can be played inside, outside whilst having great active fun. The unit talks to you at points in the game and it also plays music, but we found this a little bit muffled on our carpet and we were generally too focused on the game to listen. The beat of the music probably helps you find a rhythm if you listen though.
The different settings and modes mean you can adjust this for younger kids to play or ramp it for older kids who really want a challenge. It can be used both indoors and outdoors, you just need a big enough indoor area for them to use while jumping. Although we’ve had very mild weather for October, the game is a good way to keep them busy active when it’s wet and miserable outside. Jump-It Wipeout is a great game that has provided so much fun for the boys and their friends. They have both loved competing to see who can outjump the foam bar. It’s kept them away from screens over half-term, which is always a good thing.
The Jump-It Wipeout is a musical jump challenge where you try to beat the rotating soft foam jump bar. The aim is to either jump until the time is up or until you Wipeout! The boys were really excited to be testing out Jump-It Wipeout – it’s right up their street. They love the larger-scale version of this at our local trampoline park, so being able to have their own version is a dream come true. Overall, not only did it really tire us both out, but we spent a really lovely afternoon together in the park – no TV, no screens, no lazy day spent at home, but fresh air, movement and exercise – and we both felt so much better for it!
We had so much fun on the after-dark twilight trail @polesdenlaceynt last week. The boys loved carrying lanterns for part of the trail. Jump-It Wipeout consists of a sweep arm which is rotated by a central motorised unit. The aim is to jump, skip or hop over the arm as it comes round and avoid being ‘wiped out’. Challenge Mode – Things begin to heat up, as you jump the sweep jump bar speed increases faster and faster! Not only can the Stay Active range help reduce screen time and time prevent a sedentary lifestyle, but keeping active can help improve overall mental wellbeing, balance, coordination and stamina, as well as social skills, self esteem and confidence. Being more active can also help everyone get a better night’s sleep and what’s not to love about that?!What I love about the Stay Active range is that we enjoy the toys in the range as much as the kids do. The Jump-It Wipe-Out especially so as both hubby and I used to love watching the show together. Best to visit by car, nearest stations are 3/4 miles away (Boxhill & Westhumble, Bookham and Dorking) We took M there for his birthday and he was heaven. He spent his time running around not knowing what to look at first. Even on the slowest mode it’s pretty fast so you need to focus. There are different settings which mean you can change the speed for more of a challenge if you need it. We call them fast, faster and super speed, but on the device they are called L, M and H or low, medium and high. You can also change the maximum duration of the game from 1 minute to 2 or 3 minutes. Finally to mix it up there are 3 different game modes: Normal (N), Challenge (C) and Reverse (R). In the challenge mode the speed gradually increases, in reverse mode the arm briefly stops and then moves in the other direction. You can play on your own or with others and the instructions suggest trying in teams, ‘best of’ or elimination versions.
The boys have been fans of Tom Gates for a while now. M has always loved reading books that make him laugh and contain humour - they tend to keep him engaged in reading. DISCLOSURE: we were sent the Jump-It Wipe-Out for the purposes of this review. As always though, all thoughts and opinions are our own. Challenge Mode: not for the feint hearted as in challenge mode the sweep jump bar speed increases as you jump faster and faster!
