Active Indoor and Outdoor Play

Bouncy Hopper Toys and Inflatable Animal Ride-Ons for Toddlers

Our bouncy hopper toys are inflatable animal ride-ons designed to make active play simple, exciting and easy to enjoy at home, in a daycare, at a birthday party or as part of a soft play setup.

Children sit on the hopper, hold the built-in ears or handles and use their legs to bounce forward. This playful movement can help support balance, coordination, body awareness and gross motor development while giving toddlers an energetic way to move.

Choose from friendly animal designs including puppies, lambs, bulls, cows, horses, dinosaurs, unicorns and other playful characters. Each toddler hopper is made for easy everyday use and includes a hand pump for convenient inflation.
