Comments about 12' Parachute:

"We used the parachute as a 'fun' activity for a group of 5-12 year olds at church. They loved it. We have also used it at the beach and the neighbor girls borrowed it for their slumber party.

Comments about 12' Parachute:

I use the parachutte in movement classes, birthday parties & preschool motor skill classes. The children love to bounce balls under it. They love to trade places by running under the parachutte from oppisite ends when you call out 2 names. They like to play games like cat & mouse. I also use it in plays as a rainbow.
