Five Faves: Outdoor Toys

Spring has sprung and it's all about spending as much time playing outside to make up for the horrible winter. Of course, being at the playground isn't always enough. Here are our five fave toys to bring along to keep the kiddies occupied.


Jump rope
An oldie but a goodie, a jump rope is always fun for kids. Get a longer one if you want to make it a group activity.

Ogodisk
Bounce the ball to each other or just see how long you can keep a ball up in the air. And when you tire of that, you can use the Ogodisk as a frisbee.

Chalk Paint
Kids can unleash the artist within outside.  And when they're done, it just washes away.

Bubbles
What kid doesn't love bubbles? We especially like the "squeeze and blow" bubbles because there's no digging in the bottle for the wand.

Gertie Ball
The Gertie Ball is great soft yet bouncy ball that's easy to catch. What's even better is that you can deflate it for easy transport and storage.
