 Excellent fun - but you need lots of space! October 29, 2008
Junior Stomp Rocket Kit This is an excellent toy if you have lots of space. Even a four year old can get it a long way, and my dad even managed to get it over the roof of their bungalow (boys eh?). I'm definitely glad a bought this version and not the non-junior one which can apparently travel 4x the distance!!
It is possible to point the rocket launcher in any direction so that the rockets land in an area that suits you (but only if your children are feeling co-operative!)
The only down side is that it's easy to lose the rockets in trees and bushes as the children generally forget to watch where they land!! Fortunately you can buy packs of spare rockets and hopefully the two we've lost will become visible as the leaves fall off the trees!!
fantastic stomp rocket July 31, 2008
This was bought for my son last year for his 4th birthday, and it has been played with to almost distruction. i would recomend you take this to the park as it needs wide open spaces. whenever we take it to the park it always draws other children, all wanting to see how high they can stomp the rocket,my 9yr old now challenges himself to try and catch them. would recommend this if you want tied children at the end of the day, a must for the long summer holidays.
Have bought it again and again ! July 28, 2008
I bought this as a gift for a friends 6 year old son. My girls age 2 and 4 loved it so much I went out and got a set for ourselves. We now spend most weekends stomping rockets all over the place and getting the kids to chase them. My sister has arrived and seen the Rocket Stomper and has promptly gone out and bought a set for her girls aged 6 and 4 and another set for her friends kids aged 9 and 6. Great fun for all ages and definitely worth the money. TIP: Buy extra rockets !!
educational? maybe not... but what fun! June 17, 2008
Ah, I love this toy! We have so much fun with it. And it's cheap! Only one teeny problem - make sure to angle the rocket launcher away from the neighbors' gardens!
Blast Off! December 29, 2007
Every now and again, you'll see something that you just KNOW is a perfect present for someone. Such was the case with the Stomp Rocket and my 5yr old nephew. So I bought one and he loves it.
It's a simple concept that's well executed. Plastic pipe, plastic tripod , plastic hose and plastic air reservoir all connect together to make the launcher. Add a plastic rocket to the launch pipe, stomp and you're off. I was initially worried by the durability of all the plastic bits but so far it's stood up well to the trials of an enthusiastic 5yr old.
Even the grown-ups have a go, competing at hitting distant targets or seeing who can stomp the furthest.
Cheap and effective, it's a great toy for the park that kids (and more growns ups than might admit) will enjoy.
