Jazzminton from Funsparks is a fast-paced, action-packed paddle game where two players hit a feather birdie back and forth to one another. Standing at a distance of 5 to 30 feet apart, players see how long they can go without it dropping. This set includes two wooden paddles and four feather birdies, which are made of real feathers. A cross between badminton and beach paddle ball, both the paddles and birdies are very lightweight, and the birdie has a strong bounce to it. It's for indoor or outdoor play.
This is a fun, fast-paced game for indoors or outdoors. We found it easier to keep a volley going when playing this game versus badminton or beach paddle ball, which makes it that much more exciting. The game keeps players moving for exercise, and may also help develop hand-eye coordination.
Jazzminton is for two players ages 6 and up. It would also be fun to play alone, and try to beat your own record of how long you can keep it going.
This set can be played indoors or outdoors.

Family Review Center writes "This game is C-R-a-Z-Y fun!!! Now if we can just teach the kids to make it go a bit straighter, we will not have to run so much! We "LOVE" this game! It has been played so much, since its arrival, I am not even sure how many times now! When dad gets home, he is asked "Can we go out and play RingStix?" ... No rest for the weary since it arrived!" |
Best Toys writes: "RingStix: One of the Best Outdoor Games of All-Time It’s been too long since a truly fantastic outdoor game has been invented. Sure there have been things here or there that have been neat, but nothing that jumped out at us in the way that RingStix did. After a skeptical beginning, we were wowed by the simple but brilliant design of a game that gets its players outdoors, active, and having the time of their lives." ... Overall This is a great game, and it’s reasonably priced. It’s a wonderful tool to build good times and good memories with. The simplicity of it is refreshing, as is the fact that anybody can play it (specifically, ages 10-110, according to the packaging.) There is, however, a warning on the back of the box that anyone and everyone should take serious heed of when using RingStix, as there is a high probability of it happening. It reads as follows. WARNING: The person playing RingStix may find themselves outdoors, getting more exercise, being active, making new friends, and having much more fun. |

Dr. Toy writes
"Certainly age grading, name recognition, company dependability, versatility of design, and place of purchase are factors to obtain the right product. Another aspect you can depend on is a warranty. Rising costs for products require us to be wise consumers and to get extra lasting value. Certainly durable products, properly designed, and developmentally correct are worth the money. Children’s positive reactions are worth the extra effort. I utilize a complicated set of objective and subjective criteria to evaluate toys and other products. Some questions to ask are:

The Noise on Toys "Our testers quickly discovered that this is a little more challenging than it looks. But most kept at it and thrilled when they actually started to catch the ring. It's a bit like the name suggests – throwing and catching a ring on sticks, except that the curve in the sword-like "stix" makes the throwing a little more challenging at first, but is quite useful when you master it." |
