Keeping my daughter Kinsley occupied is a bit difficult, so I am always looking for fun new ways to keep her entertained. When I got the chance to review this Little Tikes Easy Score Basketball Arcade, I just COULDN’T pass it up! I knew Kinsley would love having her own mini-sports center in our home! To start, this toy was extremely easy to put together! Everything came labeled with letters and the directions were very detailed accompanied with photos. I was able to assemble this by myself in less than ten minutes. Nothing additional was required besides batteries and a pump for the two soft inflatable basketballs. The poles simply snapped together, and the plastic tarp slid right over the top. The tarp is held in place by several velcro straps. The realistic scoreboard is also held in place by velcro straps, and sits right above where the tarp ends. I did find that this toy is quite large, however I did not have any issues placing it into my home. It fit easily into the corner of my living room. Since it is so light, I can move it around as needed, or store it away when not in use.
When my daughter Kinsley came home and seen this Little Tikes Easy Score Basketball Arcade she was OVER THE MOON! She immediately grabbed one of the balls and started to shoot. The build in sound effects got Kinsley excited as she continued to practice her shots. The scoreboard kept count of how many hoops she made, and the balls were quickly rolled back to her after every shot. Since Kinsley was hitting and jumping on the arcade, I was scared she was going to break it. Thankfully it is extremely sturdy and durable, so nothing was torn or broken. I really love how this Little Tikes Easy Score Basketball Arcade has a two player scoreboard, which means my daughter and my nephew can have fun little competitions with each other. I can’t wait to watch their competitive sides come out! This is definitely a must-have for kids of all ages!

Bless! I wish I had that when I was a kid. I always got dolls but all I wanted was to play hoop or race matchbox cars.

Glad to hear it was easy to assemble! As an avid Nerf hoop player from elementary through college, I can attest that it’s well worth having something like this around for rainy days, study days, “I’m bored” days, I don’t wanna go out to play days…
