I’m not sure precisely when, but at some stage in (I think) the 1970s, some genius came up with the incredible “Spacehopper”. What was, presumably, one small step for a man, became a giant leap for under 10s the world over, as they bounced around aimlessly for hours upon end.
Spacehoppers were quite possibly the silliest and most simple toys ever created – they are, essentially, just big balloons with handles on them – but they proved extremely popular with us in our playschool days.
Some classic moments were had:
- Trying to bounce down a slide aboard a Spacehopper; and
- Knocking over people like skittles, again, aboard my Spacehopper.
Happy days, indeed.
