Description: HappyHopperz is a collection of bright, inflatable animals that not only rival the Space Hoppers of the 1970s but take BOUNCING to a whole new level. Created with ears and horns for children to grip on to and feet to steady the bounce, these wonderful animals come in a variety of different styles and colours.
Score: 92.3%
What the testers said: “This product was loved by me and all the children and it was used continually by everyone. It was easy to use for the younger children and still fun for my five-year- old. The HappyHopperz is easier to use than a traditional space hopper as it doesn’t roll over. We had fun trying out the games suggested on the box. I was very confident my children could use it independently, even my one-year-old.”
