Description
Jingly Jungle Bowling, designed to encourage hand to eye coordination, will keep toddlers occupied for hours at a time, trying their hardest to knock each of the animal-themed pins over just like a real game of bowling. But this is bowling with a twist. Each of the brightly coloured, fabric pins makes a jingle sound, making this game not only visually stimulating, but acoustically pleasing too. Ideal for individual play, the Jingly Jungle bowling set is equally suitable for play with friends and other siblings, encouraging interactivity, turn taking and sharing. There are six soft animal skittles, giraffe, monkey, zebra, crocodile, lion and elephant and a multi-coloured ball, all of which come in a convenient zip-up case for easy storage and transportation.

What our experts think
Jingly Jungle Bowling is a brilliantly fun way for toddlers to improve their coordination while also learning to take turns. Our testers just adored the animal characters, with some children ignoring the game altogether, preferring to sit and play with the animals! Other testers did play the game properly, thoroughly enjoying knocking over the pins and getting very excited about winning. Social and emotional skills such as taking turns, winning and losing respectfully, and understanding rules are really key at this age and this bowling set is a lovely opportunity for children to practise these. It’s also a good game for getting little ones active, supporting physical development. Hitting the pins takes a fair bit of coordination, developing fine motor skills
