Launch & Play Catapult Games

My six-year-old figured out within ten minutes that aiming the catapult higher makes the pom-poms land shorter, and now he keeps adjusting the angle to hit the targets. The three games give it real replay value, and the pom-poms are soft enough that I don't worry about the dog or the lamps.

The trajectory duel had us all guessing wrong at first, but once we figured out the right angle to lob those pom-poms, it turned into a hilarious family competition. Even the packaging was sturdy enough to survive our enthusiastic launching sessions.

My kids and I spent a whole afternoon experimenting with different angles to nail that first target game—it’s way more engaging than I expected for something this simple. The pom-pom trajectory lesson actually stuck with them, and they keep asking to play the duel mode again tonight.
