Spirohop is the outdoor kids' ride-on toy of the summer
Posted by Seamus Byrne at 10:06 AM on November 19, 2007
It bounces, it spins, it see-saws. The Spirohop must, must, MUST come to Australia. Pleeeeease??!Take your typical see-saw, add the bouncy goodness off the classic spacehopper, and then let the whole thing spin on its axis. If they made these in grown up sizes, I'd be outside playing on one right now instead of in here staring at computer screens.
Cue Demtel voice. How much would you expect to pay? This is listed at £69.99, or about $160. The site says they'll ship international, so even wearing some hefty shipping charges, this ride-on will be such a hit all summer it will be well worth the dosh. [Spirohop via BabyGadget]

I must admit I like the bouncy ball concept under the seat.
My first thought is seeing this thing spinning around knocking other kids walking in it's path into tomorrow. I've had issues with back yard swings before, with both my kids walking in front of the swinging pendulum.
Admittedly might be better for older kids. I have a 3 year old and an 18 month old with #3 due at xmas.
I do prefer toys I can leave the kids in the back yard with, without general concern.
