Champion Sports Multi-Colored Parachute

We have bought and used, weekly for 18 months, two different sizes of these parachutes. The children (and adult supervisors) love playing with them, and there are lots of games we can play with them. They come with stuff sacks, so are easy to haul around and to store.The Champion Sports chutes specifically. They are attractive and work well. Most important they are strong, and we have had no damage at all to them. We do instruct the older boys, age 9 or 10 on up, that it is not their task to rip them apart, as unrestrained they are likely to do so when making waves. They grab the handles and pull with a vengeance and are strong enough to pull them apart. We ask the children on these kinds of games to hold the handles underhand. They can't pull as hard underhanded.I enthusiastically recommend the Champion ParachutesWant a couple more simple games? We laminated for 8-1/2 x 11" colored papers, and numbered them 1 to 4. Kids choose which corner they want to go to while we count down from 5 to 1. Then we call a number, and those in that corner are out. Toward the end, we may call two numbers so that we can finish up and start over again. A really active game is snowballs, or whatever you want to call it. You can make them a lot of different ways, but we stuffed old sheer stockings with pillow stuffing. Put a line or rope on the floor. Each team tries to get as many 'snowballs' on the other team's side before time is called. The team with the least snowballs on their side wins.

Multi-Colored 20 Feet Parachute was purchased for use at camp for Developmentally Disabled and other Special Needs Individuals from the ages of about 12 to 60 years. It was a huge hit with all ages and levels of ability. I was especially impressed that the ones in wheelchairs were able to participate and appeared to be having the time of their lives. We also purchased twenty five 5" beach balls and used a regular sized beach ball to play "popcorn", which was a big hit. "Popcorn" was a game where all of the balls were placed on the parachute and everyone holding the parachute moved the parachute up and down to keep the balls bouncing. Another big hit was having some of the individuals go under the parachute to the other side. An even more popular game involved a single regular size beach ball. Some individuals held the parachute and moved it up and down with the beach ball on the parachute, while those under the parachute tried to hit the ball past the individuals holding the parachute. Please consider playing the games described above at your own risk and with plenty of staff to help keep up the enthusiasm of the group and direct the individuals on how to play. The parachute was very nicely colored and in perfect condition when we received it. The parachute held up to all of the enthusiastic play and was in the same condition when we packed it up as it was when we received it. The colors of the parachute make for wonderful photo opportunities. Finally, the price was much more reasonable than I had anticipated.

Item came just as described. The material is of high quality and will hold even larger people. Which I don't think that is it's intention, but you can certainly do it. I purchased this for The Hangout Music Festival to have fun with my friends and attract a woman to roll in it with at night! ;)

The product is colorful and well made. It has a nice feel to it. It looks to be very durable but I haven't used it yet with my granddaughter. It arrived quickly without any issues.

I was considering the size between 10", 12" or 14", I ordered 12". And it is the exactly size I need for my little space. Not too small and not too big. Good to fit around 10-12 parents hold the parachute outside and 8-10 "babies"(under 1.5 yrs old) inside.

Well made with "rip-stop" nylon, reinforced outer perimeter with handles. Should last quite a while. Very pleased with it.
