Woopie dinosaur rackets are two green rackets with a cute dinosaur design, a yellow ball and a shuttlecock. The big mesh helps little ones hit easily.

These dinosaur rackets for kids are 37 cm long, with a large, elastic mesh that makes catching and hitting the ball and shuttlecock easy. Soft EVA grips sit comfortably in the hand, and their textured surface improves grip, reduces slipping and dampens vibration. Pastel colours and the green dinosaur print get children moving. The ball is 5 cm across. Two rackets mean play with a sibling, parent or friend. Great for the yard, beach, garden or home. Designed for children aged 3 and up.

What your child develops

• Hand-eye coordination. Track the ball and hit it with the racket.
• Reaction speed. Get to the ball in time.
• Accurate movements. Children learn to hit it back to their partner.
• Grip control. Non-slip grips help hold the racket securely.
• Playing together. Two players make it more fun.

How to play

Start with the ball at a short distance, toss it gently and let your child hit it back. Then try a rally and count the hits.

The shuttlecock flies more slowly, so it suits first tries at badminton.
