Why Our Experts Love It


This is hands-down, one of Barbara's favorite activities (and toys, if you call it a toy).

Barbara, if you didn't know, is our resident Occupational Therapist. And while OT's typically comment on Fine Motor development, Barbara grabbed this one and made it her own.

Here's why Barbara loves it:

- Fun is just a Hop, Skip and Jump away! The Hopscotch Rug teaches children to count while getting them moving.

- What a great way to improve coordination. Don't believe it? Try it for yourself. Hopping, bending, picking up markers on one leg, turning and hopping back. And all without touching any lines. Hey dad, make sure to bend at the knees!

- I love the hopscotch rug because it takes a classic Outdoor Game and moves it indoors for year-round fun.

- And, I am a sucker for a cool design and would put this in my girls room as a great decoration.

- Good luck!

Developmental Hint: If you didn't already, please watch Barbara's video on hopping, balancing and more - look for the yellow Learning Video Tab above. You'll be glad you did.'

    Great throwback toy
    My G-daughter loves this toy. It is a great way for her and sibs to do something active together. It sure beats watching TV for hours on end.

    Great toy and great buy. What I liked most about it was that it can be used indoors and outdoors. I do wish it came in a blue or something for my son because he loves playing hop scotch and it would be kind of silly to give him a pink one. But my girls loved it. After they are done I just roll it up and store it in the closet so it doesn't get in the way or make a big mess.

    It's beautifully colored and decorated. Fun to look at, great for decoration when not in use. My niece, as it turns out, has trouble hopping on one foot! So she might not play with it too often unless she had a friend or someone to supervise her or help her out to make the game more interesting.

    Snow day play!
    My son and his family were here visiting and the weather was too bad to go outside. I had gotten this for my granddaughter's birthday. It was so nice to spread this in the hallway and the kid's could have some active play without running all over the house. My son said it was also nice to have while they were traveling to use in the hotel rooms.

    Hopscotch Rug
    Since this was my first time ordering from this website, I was concerned about quality. Would the materials be durable, would the edges be well bound? No need to worry. I ordered this for our 4 yr. old granddaughter and it should stand up quite nicely to heavy play time. She will be able to practice her numbers and develop large motor skills indoors or out, all with one toy. I looked at other hopscotch rugs and was willing to sew beanbag place markers, but didn't have to with this rug as they are included. Tracking my order was easy and efficient. My order arrived very quickly. I will definitely order from ebeanstalk again.

    Love it!!!
    The Hopscotch rug was bought on a whim as a last minute Christmas gift for my 3 year old granddaughter. What a great whim it turned out to be. I think it was one of her favorites. The colors are awesome and the size is perfect! I highly recommend this rug!

  • This fun, colorful version of the classic sidewalk game can be played indoors or out. Roll out the rug for your child and explain that he/she has to throw the soft disc on a tile, then hop on the numbers, not touching the one that the disc landed on.

  • At first your child will probably need to jump with a two footed jump. Encourage him/her to jump further and further to distant numbers.

  • Practice counting by asking your child call out the numbers aloud as he/she hops on them. Have your child hop to a specific number and call out the colors on the rug.

  • Try asking your child to jump to a certain number and balance on one foot, then the other. This will encourage him/her to develop good balance as your child shifts his/her weight.

  • Then, show your little one how to hop on one foot once, twice, three times, until he/she can make it to the end of the board.

  • When you child masters this game, he/she will be able to hop through all the numbers, turn around and hop back. On his/her way back, your preschooler will be able to bend down and pick up his/her disc.

  • As far as learning toys go, this Hopscotch game is a great way to encourage social interaction. Invite over some friends and each take a turn at Hopscotch. Taking turns is an important skill your child will need as he/she moves toward school.
