The Woopie shark dartboard is a safe darts game for kids: velcro balls stick to the target, so no sharp darts are needed.

This velcro dartboard for kids is shaped like a cheerful shark that grabs children's attention straight away. The target has scoring zones, so you can hold contests and keep score. The velcro balls stick easily and come off easily, making the game safe indoors. The target has a hole for hanging, and a self-adhesive hook is included so it can be fixed to a wall or door. The target is about 38 × 30 cm and each ball about 3.5 cm across.

What your child develops

• Accuracy. Your child learns to aim and control a throw.
• Hand-eye coordination. Eye and hand work together.
• Concentration. Focus on the target before each throw.
• Fair play. Keeping score teaches honest competition.

How to play

Hang the target at your child's eye level and start close. As hits become more frequent, step back.

Hold a family contest: three throws each, and whoever scores the most points wins.
