Full Description
Stomp Rocket has proven itself as a maker of active outdoor toys that keep generations of kids moving. The Racers edition adds a twist by launching race cars instead of rockets, which is extra appealing to car enthusiasts.
The principle is simple but effective: stomp on the air pump and watch the race car fly through the air. The foam construction ensures safe landings, while the aerodynamic design provides impressive distances.
What parents appreciate is the combination of active play and screen-free entertainment. Kids are so focused on trying to launch farther that they don't realize how much they're moving.
Build Quality & Safety
The air pump is sturdily constructed and withstands enthusiastic stomping. The foam cars are surprisingly durable and maintain their shape after countless flights and landings. The hose between pump and launcher is flexible but doesn't break easily.
