Our Take
A classic beginner's basketball set from Little Tikes aimed at toddlers and young children aged 18 months and upwards. The adjustable hoop can be set at multiple heights up to 4ft to grow with the child, making it one of the most enduring starter sports toys on the market. Designed to grow along with your child, and encourages the development of motor skills and coordination.
Key Features
Adjustable post with multiple height settings, ranging from approximately 2.5 ft to 4 ft tall
Includes one oversized, lightweight plastic ball sized for small hands
Wide, stable base designed to be filled with sand or water for added stability outdoors
Smooth, rounded edges throughout with no sharp plastic points
Backboard and rim are one moulded piece in bright primary colours
Suitable from 18 months upward per Little Tikes' own guidance
Our Verdict
A solid choice for parents of toddlers and pre-schoolers wanting an affordable, safe introduction to ball sports in the garden. Those with children over five or looking for something more durable and challenging should consider a heavier-duty adjustable set with a regulation-sized hoop.
