Bouncin’ Baby Roos

Can you help these baby roos hop home? Practice hand–eye coordination, counting, communication, and more with this simple, fast-paced party (and therapy!) game. Bounce the baby-roo ping-pong balls into Mama’s pouch before the 30-second timer runs out. Whoever lands the most baby roos, wins! For an extra challenge, place the three Dingo blocks in front of Mama Roo—you’ll need precision to hop past the dingos.
