The Tot Town Octo Toss from SportsPlay brings movement, coordination, and friendly competition together in an engaging commercial playground game designed specifically for children ages 2–5. With its colorful, approachable design, children can practice aiming and tossing while enjoying an activity that feels like play but also supports important early developmental skills.
Tossing activities encourage children to coordinate their eyes, hands, and body movements as they judge distance and aim toward a target. Repeated play can help strengthen hand-eye coordination, motor control, spatial awareness, and concentration while giving children opportunities to adjust their movements and try again.
The Octo Toss also works well as a social playground activity. Children can take turns, play alongside friends, create simple games, or work together toward shared goals. These experiences encourage communication, patience, teamwork, and positive social interaction while introducing younger children to friendly competition.
Designed for commercial outdoor environments, the Tot Town Octo Toss measures 70" x 72", weighs approximately 120 pounds, and uses in-ground mounting for a permanent installation. The game is made in the USA and designed specifically for children ages 2–5. Bean bags are not included.
