I would like to share with you an interesting toy to promote active play by Goliath Sports. It is the Phlat Ball. This ball can be smashed flat and thrown like a disc or you can throw and catch like a ball.
Phlat Ball is recommended for children 5 and above. It folds flat so it is very portable. You can play with it in the water and also indoors. Just be cautious that there can be a time delay in popping back open if Phlat Ball gets wet, dusty, or sandy. It can be washed and dried to help it pop open fully.
Now a word of caution, this ball is not designed to be stepped on, kicked, or hit. If you want to go beyond the basics of catching and tossing, there are four games you can cut out and save on the packaging. Phlat Ball is great to get my kids outdoors and enjoy more time in the sun.
