Yomega Toys Keep Kids Outdoors & Giveaway

I was not compensated for this post.  I did received samples for the purpose of review.

Spring is here! The weather is warmer and my kids want to stay outside longer.  We take bike rides and scooter rides, but sometimes it is fun just to stay in front of the house and have fun.

Yomega offers three items that my girls enjoyed testing out. (I have to tell you my favorite is the Kendama.  Don’t tell them that I have been trying to master it while they are in be.)  At first, they were losing patience. But, I explained that it is a skill that requires practice and I must say the practice is fun!

Outdoor Play with Yomega Kendama!

Yomega® Kendama!

Yomega’s Kendama Toss & Catch Skill Game is a traditional Japanese game that is easy to play but difficult to master.  The basic object of the game is to catch the tethered ball on each of the cupped surfaces of the hammer-like handle.  The ball has a hole in it, which allows advanced players to catch it on the spike (aptly called a “spike”). In addition to these basic maneuvers, there are numerous other tricks that players can perform, all of which require great hand-eye coordination. (MSRP: $9.99; Recommended for ages 8 & up; Available in neon colors: yellow, red and orange)

The Yomega Brain is a “smart” introductory yo-yo that’s perfect for beginners. When you throw the Yomega Brain, the yo-yo’s clutch system opens to enable it to “sleep” and then closes to force the yo-yo to come back up. Even if you’ve never played with a yo-yo, you’ll get it right every time! (MSRP: $10.99; Recommended for ages 8 & up; Available in blue, green and orange)

Outdoor Play with Yomega Brain Yo-yo

Yomega® Power Brain XP™ The Yomega Power Brain XP is the first yo-yo to offer two levels of play that advances with a player’s skills. The Power Brain XP yo-yo has the patented Yomega Smart Switch™ system, giving beginners an elective auto-return feature. As players progress and learn tricks, they can turn off the auto-return feature for longer spin times and string tricks. (MSRP: $14.99; Recommended for ages 8 & up; Available in blue, green and yellow)
