Keep Kids Fit With Stay Active Jump It Wipeout

Last Updated on: 23rd October 2022, 02:58 am

Keeping kids fit as autumn arrives is more difficult than summer. Kids are tired from being back at school and they don’t want to be outside as the weather gets colder. It is harder to get them to show enthusiasm as we drift more into the colder weather. But when you have toys that will help them stay fit as well as make them laugh with their friend, they will want to play with them. The best thing is that the Stay Active Jump it Wipeout activity is not just for kids. Teens and adults can join in too. And it is perfect for them to do inside the house as well as outside.

We were sent the Stay Active Jump It Wipeout as part of the Stay Active ambassador. You can buy the Stay Active Jump It Wipeout from Smyths for £59.99.

Using Stay Active Jump It Wipeout

We have all watched the programmes like Wipeout, where people are challenged to complete an obstacle course. This is a challenge to get everyone on their feet and competing.

The idea of Stay Fit Jump it Wipeout is so simple. It is a bar that goes around trying to trip you up. As you see it coming towards you, you jump out of its way. If it hits you, the game shouts out WIPEOUT and your turn is over.

The Stay Fit Jump it Wipeout game needs 6 size D batteries. We had trouble hunting this size down where we lived and had to get some from Amazon. You place the batteries underneath and then screw the plate back in place. You are ready to go. The bars clip in together and are easy to pull apart again at the end of play. The bar is also covered in foam so you do not hurt your ankles as you play.

There are not many toys or games that you can use in the house, that will help with your kid’s mental and physical health. But this is one that you can be sure of that will bring laughs and giggles.

Play Modes That You Can Use

The Stay Fit Jump it Wipeout game has 3 different play modes, so whatever challenge you feel like trying is totally down to you.

Normal mode lets you jump against the timer. Can you jump over the bar until the timer runs out? Or will the bar hit you and make you stop?

In normal mode, you can set the speed to low, medium, or high speed. Depending on your age and ability.
Challenge mode is harder and more challenging. This is where the game gets more exciting because as you jump the bar increases its speed in the hope to get you to wipe out. You need to keep on your toes with this mode.
Reverse mode is the mode where the wipeout bar can change directions randomly. One moment you could be going clockwise and the next you could be going anti-clockwise. So it is a test of timings, reactions, and agility.

The game is easy to start and can play it with or without you. It is great for getting them outside to get some exercise as well as using it inside when the weather is rubbish. You just need lots of space for the kids to jump.

There is a speed button, so the smaller kids can have it slower, whilst the older and more confident players can have it at a faster speed.

Getting Everyone Involved

The idea of the game is great because it is encouraging the kids to keep fit without realising it. The Stay Fit Jump it Wipeout activity helps your kids to reduce the amount of screen time they have and gets them doing something else. It is an activity that all of the family can join in with. In fact, Kim has already asked if she can take it to her Brownie group for them to play it. It helps the kids with balance, coordination, and reaction time.

The Stay Fit Jump it Wipeout also helps to give your kids confidence and self-esteem as they work through the challenge. It helps them with their mental health which might be suffering a little as the colder weather sets in.
