Gift Guide: The Spooner (Review and Giveaway) CLOSED

No waves, slopes, or sidewalks required! 
"Using the Spooner Board, riders of all abilities can pretend they are catching a wave, riding the slopes, or burning up the asphalt without leaving the comfort of the family room. Designed for beginners, kids starting at age 3 can simulate spins, twists, slides, wobbles, and more, while getting a workout, stabilizing their core and improving their balance and coordination." 
 We received a blue Spooner Board to try out, and have had a blast reviewing it! The Spooner is for all ages 3+ and comes in a variety of fun colors. You can use The Spooner in a variety of different ways and in several different places. Keep it indoors and practice your skateboarding and snowboarding techniques, or bring it outdoors and use it for sledding and boarding. If you have limited play space, then this the perfect toy because you only need a few feet to use it. It's a fun toy for the entire family!
I hopped on The Spooner myself, but being pregnant and not wanting the baby to come early, I didn't stay on it for very long. The board really gives you a nice ab workout, so I am looking forward to using this a lot after the baby is born because it's a fun way to exercise.
As for my kids, they LOVE it. When I bring it out for them to play with, I can't get them off of it. There are non-slip pads which keep them from slipping, when both their socks are on and off, which is nice. My daughter loves to rock, and balance on it and my favorite is the 360 degree spin! I sit them both on it and I spin them around. They laugh and giggle the whole time, it's definitely a simple way to have some fun. I have been using The Spooner on our carpet and it moves and slides very well. I have yet to try it in the snow and grass, but am very excited to experience the thrill!
