Welcome to the Outdoor Activities Room
If you love to be in the great outdoors but prefer to be doing something rather than nothing, then this is the perfect room for you to look in. When we have wonderful weather there is nothing better than being outside playing a game of cricket or golf, having a paddle in a pool or even flying a kite. We have an array of items that you will be able to have lots of fun with.
On the Ball Games & Boomerangs shelf you will find a Baseball Set and Rounders Set, some bouncy balls, a normal Boomerang and a 4 Blade Boomerang. If you have ever wanted to know the difference between Rounders and Baseball it is likely that they both share the same roots. Rounders first being played in England in Tudor Times around 1750 and Baseball in America in 1846. There are some differences between the two years but they both remain popular in their ‘home’ countries and obviously more so with Baseball. The Basketball & Boxing shelf has a selection of balls and equipment for playing the fast paced game of basketball and the intense sport of boxing.
On the Bikes, Scooters, Ride-Ons & Battery Powered Vehicles shelf there is a great choice of tricycles like the very innovative Scuttlebug which folds up for easy storage. Or if you have an older child who would prefer a scooter then check out the Razor Spark Scooter that can create a trail of sparks when you kick back on the special spark bar. Any child would love to pretend to be a ‘grown up’ and drive their very own car, and we wonder how many would choose the very red Ferrari F340 which comes with a 6V motor and battery and can move both backwards and forwards.
The Flying Scale Models shelf is great for those who want to experience flying their own plane, choose from the Olympian Rubber Powered Plane or maybe you would prefer the Supermarine Spitfire Mk I. You will find some great products on the Football, Rugby, Cricket & Golf shelf, four classic British sports. The Football Set by Free Time 4 Kidz includes two inflatable footballs and an inflatable goal with net, great fun for all the family and so easy to use! Or if you prefer the Complete Cricket Set by Mookie which includes a wooden size 3 cricket bat, stumps. Bail, leg pads, batting gloves and a good quality rubber ball; everything you need for the perfect game of Sunday afternoon cricket!
We stock a massive range of kites from Spirit of Air which can all be found on the Kites & Accessories shelf. Kites for the complete beginner to power, sport and stunt kites. The Diamond Rainbow Kite is great classic kite which is super strong and ready to use for you to learn to fly a kite. We also stock the very popular Chinese Sky Lantern in both a square and heart shape. Light the fuel cell candle inside and watch the lantern float up to 1000m high and stay in the air for 20 minutes.
On the Nerf & Xploderz shelf you will find two different types of ‘dart guns’ which shoot foam ammunition and is safe for indoor play. The Nerf N-Strike Recon CS-6 by Hasbro is the ultimate customisable dart gun with many different attachments. Xploderz by Character Options are very similar to Nerf but the ammo is different, they are called hydro rounds and are super safe, non toxic and leave no mess. This ammo can be used with the Xploderz X-Stormer 575; it is light and easy to use and you can fire at your opponent from 75 feet away.
The Novelty Flags shelf has a variety of high quality flags measuring 150cm x 90cm (5ft x 3ft). We have the American Stars & Stripes Flag, the regional Yorkshire Rose Flag and there is also the Great British Union Flag of red, white and blue. And did you know that the Union Flag is only called the Union Jack when it is onboard a ship!
Children love to play outside whatever the weather and on the Outdoor Games shelf we have everything to make your garden or backyard a paradise. Have a look at the Funny House, an outdoor playhouse with balcony and curtains or the Dual Garden slide; we even have the very classic Hoola Hoop.
What could be more fun on a hot summer’s day than filling up a paddling pool with cold water and jumping right in? Take a look at what we have on the Paddling Pool & Water Activities shelf. There is a Fill N Fun Pool and a Whinnied the Pooh Pool for the little ones and we also have some giant water guns, called the Saturator STR, just say the name of this twin rapid fire jet system and you know you are going to get soaked!
On the Swing Ball Shelf you will find the very popular game which has been around for many years where two people try to hit a ball fastened to a large pole. The aim is to get the ball to either the top or the bottom of the spiral first. As well as an All Surface Swing ball Set there is also a First Swing ball Set designed for 3 year old and above that uses smaller bats and a foam ball. Both are easy to carry and easy to store, great for a day out at the park or on the beach
Another wonderful outdoor activity is tennis. Our Tennis & Badminton Shelf has a 2 Player Tennis Set and don’t forget the 3 Tennis Balls in a Bag for when you loose your balls over the neighbours fence. There is also a Badminton Set for both 2 and 4 players and you may need extra Shuttlecocks too.
We really hope you enjoy looking at all the Outdoor Activities products we have to offer here in the Toy Shop at WWSM and hope that you can find just what you are looking for.
