Playskool recently sent us the Busy Ball Popper for Noah to check out. At Playskool they believe that play stimulates the senses, engages the imagination, encourages curiosity, and empowers children’s sense of self confidence by allowing them to discover the world at their own pace. I totally agree! As a homeschooling mom, I also know that play lays an important foundation for advanced learning skills – skills like reading, writing, mathematics, critical problem solving, and conceptual thinking, to name just a few.
Now, this Busy Ball Popper is a wonderful “toy” to help develop eye tracking, temporal awareness, anticipation, and prediction – truly More Than Play! – however, it was a little underwhelming for two-year-old Noah. I’m sure that my one-and-a-half-year-old nephew, on the other hand, will love it!

Our whole family loves our Busy Ball Popper! When we first got it we all were so entertained with it. Even Dustin and I sat on the floor watching the balls pop into the air, our boys reaching for the balls and even dance to the catchy music! Great family fun for all of us

My son Miles Loves the Ball Popper, we got it for him when he was six months old and he fell in love with it then. It was his favorite toy for almost a year
