Space Hoppers Bouncing Back
Whilst trying to remember all the games we used to play as kids I suddenly remembered the one as kids we all had. They would just lay in the yards until you all wanted a race. Made from heavy duty rubber and measuring about 60cm in diameter, some had ‘funny’ faces printed on them and they all had large ears.
Designed in the 60s, Space Hoppers were mostly bright orange, blue or pink in colour and could be inflated by a bike pump. As young lads we used to have hours of fun on then, that’s when we played outside, no XBoxes or
Wii back then, just great outdoor fun. Bring them back.
