Swap your smartphone for the sun - 3 toys that will get kids outdoors

In an era of smartphones, tablets and endless notifications, children are increasingly swapping running around the yard for scrolling the screen. And yet, it is outdoor activity that develops their coordination, improves concentration and - most importantly - is a lot of fun!

Playing outside is also a great opportunity to build relationships - with peers and family. A few simple toys can turn an ordinary afternoon into an exciting adventure.

Check out our three hits that will get any child moving - regardless of the weather (and the desire to get up from the couch):

Velcro game - palettes + ball

• A classic that never goes out of fashion. Simple, lightweight and great for the garden or the beach. Perfect for the whole family - from toddlers to grandparents.

Double rocket launcher

• A child's energy goes up - literally! Two rockets that fly high when pressed with the foot. A great alternative to screens and a way to get natural movement.

Kruzzel disk launcher

• A toy that combines agility and reflexes. The disks fly high, and kids won't stop laughing. Plus: it develops hand-eye coordination.

You don't have to organize big trips or come up with elaborate attractions. All it takes is a few tried-and-true toys to make kids want to go outside again - and stay there for more than five minutes. Check out our offer and ensure a healthy dose of exercise for the little ones!
