Cheatwell Games Penguin Popper

It gave hours of simple harmless fun, our 3 year old granddaughter loved it as did our neighbours 18 months old granddaughter.

Bought for 2 & 4 year old. Balls are small but not small enough to swallow. Easy to use and lots of fun. Can be done with gentle pressure as well.

It's dead simple. Stuff a small black 'hard' foam ball into the penguins mouth, squeeze & off the ball flies!The ball burping bird is around 135mm high 70mm or so wide. Made of hard rubber with bright orange beak & feet it's quite sweet.It stands without wobbling upon it's feet. The balls are quite small at around 20mm wide & made of a hard foam. There are 6 of them & a little net to keep them in. Losing them is all too easy so keep track of where they go. I can't help but feel a brighter colour would be nicer & more easily found. A softer foam just wouldn't fly as far. The harder you squeeze the belly the further the ball travels.This has it's limits, educational? Well a simple explanation of the physics of flight, gravity & entropy I suppose! The balls are pretty small so I wouldn't be inclined to leave them anywhere little ones & if your nipper is inclined to 'point & shoot' then one of these projectiles at full pelt, up close & in the eyeball may cause an injury, (yes I know it's obvious but ...).The penguin itself looks pretty durable but as I say it's losing the foam balls that is likely to bring the fun to an end.Given a hefty squeeze your little Antarctic pal will spit a ball a fair old distance, especially indoors without much wind resistance. A gentle game of tag, catch or even potty 'cricket' are all do-able.A simple toy that'll give 30 minutes or so fun every now & then. It does everything you can expect & is a jolly little object at a reasonable price.

I got this for my son as he loves pig. I will looking at getting another animal for my daughter

May not be very durable but it is fun!

My child loved this gift. She has found it easy to use and fun to play with. Entertainment for hours.

Really surprised how fun this toy is! As soon as I opened it I had a good play with it for a good half hour before begrudgingly wrapping it up for my 3 year old nephew for Christmas.The balls are firmer than I thought but can't do any damage unless hit in someone's eye where it may hurt a little bit but nothing permanent. It also flies further than I thought. It also comes with a little bag to store all the little balls, or "bullets", as I called them to get nephew more excited about it. I can't see him using the bag though and will surely lose the balls one by one over the coming weeks.Nephew can't quite squeeze the belly hard enough for the ball to fly that far but I'm sure he'd learn over the next few weeks or months how to improve his technique and apply extra pressure. I guess you could somewhat count this part as the 'educational' bit requiring some hand-coordination and technique and how to aim for items like your uncles face.I'm considering buying another one so I can have battles with him.

Bought this for a penguin-mad pre-school child for Christmas, as it looked like a fun toy. And it is! You pop the rubber ball in its mouth and squeeze it and it launches with a pop. Hours of entertainment, if you like that kind of thing.Here's the problem though. The balls are a really terrible size - about two-thirds the size of a ping-pong ball. In other words, the exact size of a childs' windpipe. Should a youngster decide to mimic the penguin by sticking the ball in their mouth, and take a deep breath to launch it... well, you can probably see where this is going. The thought of this really terrified me so the toy has been hidden away. The packaging says 3+, but I probably wouldn't suggest it for any child under the age of about 8, and even then I would want to supervise at all times. If the balls had been made bigger, ping-pong ball size or larger, it'd be great. But the little balls are just the utterly wrong size and if they ended up being accidentally swallowed or inhale would block their airway completely and be impossible to dislodge. So there we have it.

Produto perfeito

Pour notre p'tit bout pour noel, je l'ai ouvert pour essayer, avant de l'emballer !C'est génial !!!Assez mou pour ses petites mains, la boule fait "POH", c'est super sympa !J'en ai acheté 2, pour qu'il puisse jouer avec quelqu'un !Rigolades assurées !
