Pacific Play Tents Funchute 6' Parachute 18004

I have nothing but good to say about this!!! Reminds me of when I was little in school and could not wait for the gym PE teacher to pull this out! Great for parties and everyday play. Well made too.I hope my reviews help you out.

The parachute is holding up well to off and on use by my two kids, though they are still young for it. It's perfect for a family of four to use, easily controlled by two adults while two excited toddlers run under and around. The kids also can influence a 8' parachute easily enough. It's a little cramped if everyone tries to hide under it; but that just adds to the excitement. We enjoy tossing balls around inside it, or hiding toys beneath too. On rainy, cold days, it can provide a much needed means for releasing toddler-energy and provide a source for giggles. The storage bag it came with makes it easy to clean up, even for a toddler. The bag is over-sized and parachute is easily stuffed inside.

This parachute is lots of fun. Very durable, bright colors, easy to hold on to. All of the seams are sewn nicely, and I suspect that this parachute will last for a long time. It is big -- definitely look for something smaller if it's only for a couple of kids. We had six playing with ours, and it almost wasn't enough to be able to do some kinds of parachute games like running underneath. It came in a nice mesh bag that the parachute fits in even if you don't fold it -- it can just be shoved in there and then the bag can be hung by its drawstring for storage.

I bought this tent a few years ago for my triplet nieces and nephew's 3rd birthday and they loved it! They still play with it, so it is durable. The tent is brightly colored and has handles for the kids to hold onto as they are lifting and spinning it. There is a lot kids can do with this parachute: make wind and bounce balls on the top of it as they raise it up and down, make tents/forts, drag each other around on it, and lift it and run underneath, and the kids can come up with some more fun ideas to do with it. This is really something that works best with more kids, so there is a teamwork element to it by lifting it in a synchronized way. The parachute is lots of fun on rainy days and is small enough to where you can use it indoors.As much as the kids enjoy it, I was disappointed that the fabric was thin and I could see it easily ripping, which is why I'm giving it 4 stars, as well as that it had a strange chemical smell when I first took it out of the box.

I bought this parachute as a gift for my son. They plan on using this parachute during a family reunion in August. They have tried it out with their children ages 5 and 1 along with their cousins and neighborhood children. I must admit the adults have just as much fun as all the children. The bright colors and exercise are great tools for educating my grandchildren and all children involved. Motor skills, colors, and just down and out exercise is what children need now days to promote healthy bodies. I would recommend this for all ages as well as adults. I can't give this toy any higher rating on the durablity as they have not used it long enough to know how well it holds up on the handles. The stuff bag is great to take the parachute anywhere as to the beach or camping etc.

I rated this 5 stars because it is exactly what it says it is - a 6 foot parachute. To be honest, it is a little too small for us so I wish I had measured out 6 feet before hand and gotten an idea about how small it would be. Just thought I would mention that in my review. This is not really a parachute you can lift up and then sit under, if you know what I mean. If you want to be able to do that, or have your child sit on it and flap it around the kid - go with a bigger size. (Or boy is 44 inches tall, just as a frame of reference.)If you were worried about using it inside, this size should be fine! It is really not too big.For the price (good) and for the quality (also pretty good) - it is worth the money and they described it correctly, so five stars! We will still use it, but also get another one that is bigger.

My two year old son fell in love with parachutes during his Gymboree play classes. After just a few weeks, I decided that I needed one for home so we could continue the fun there and invite the neighborhood children to join in.All kids love parachutes and there is so much you can do with them. He loves being dragged around the house in it, hiding under it, using it to send one of his teddy bears flying through the air and making it go up and down with the other kids.The only reason that this product receives three stars is that it was smaller than I expected. The product dimensions are clearly stated but I had difficulty transferring those dimensions into how it would work. It is difficult for the kids to run under the parachute because it is so small.Very good for the price but I will need to buy a larger one.

I purchased this as a cover for my grandchildren’s round sandbox. It fits perfectly, and has loops that can be secured with stakes to the ground. I found this idea online and it works perfectly. So happy with this purchase.
