Product Description
Stomp® on the Launch Pad and a blast of air propels the Stomp Rocket® over 100 feet in the air! The kit comes with 4 glow in the dark foam rockets. The Junior is designed for ages 3 and up.
Editorial Review
Kids can get rid of some excess energy with this air-powered outdoor rocket toy. No battery or fuel is needed to get the rockets airborne--just some old-fashioned stomping power. Set up the simple launch stand in a clear outdoor area, connect the 38-inch-long vinyl air hose and blast pad, load one of the 9-inch yellow foam rockets--and watch out. Our 5-year-old assistant reviewer really got a kick out of jumping on the purple blast-off pad and watching her rockets soar 50 feet or more, though she had to fight the adults for a turn. If the three rockets included with the kit aren't enough fun, you can order stomp parachutes and spin copters from the manufacturer. --Marianne Painter

 I Want a Stomp Rocket for My Birthday!!! September 2, 2010
L. A. Meisel (NYC)
I bought this on a lark after it was mentioned as being on sale on a bargain board. My niece was invited to attend a 4 year old boy's b-day party and it sounded interesting. The day after the party my sister called me to tell me I made a big mistake... I should have bought TWO!!!
Turns out this was the HIT at the birthday party, with the kids and adults all playing with it.
For my niece's 4th b-day this was one of only two things she requested. At her party she received all sorts of wonderful presents but the one which she was most excited about was the "STOOOOOOMP ROCKET! It was the first gift she opened and played with, right at the party!
It took about 5 minutes to put the launch together, and the 4yr old was showing all of the older "kids" (her aunts and uncles) how to use it. It is simple and lots of fun. While I would not identify it as an "educational" toy, it does teach kids that different amounts of pressure will cause the rocket to fly higher. Also the launch can be tilted so instead of straight up, it can shoot the rocket at an angle.
Just make sure that you are not near trees or too close to a house as we lost two rockets over the trees into the neighbor's yard. We had kids of all ages, from 4 to 80 playing with it. Great fun!

Bought it for the son's 4th birthday outdoor party. All the kids and adults loved it. Very easy to assemble and use. The only drawback is that the rockets can break easily.
Great toy! August 9, 2010

I ordered one of these for my two year old son. I thought he was too young for it, but after a few tries he became a pro! This is a really fun toy for the whole family. I'm going to buy several and keep them in my gift closet for kids birthdays.
So much fun, but fins aren't very durable August 5, 2010

I got this for my 4 year old son who loves. I'm not sure who had more fun with it - the adults in the playground or the kids. all the kids took turns jumping on the stomp rocket and sending the rockets high into the air. Once the adults jumped on it, they went well over 100 feet high and the kids had a great time running and trying to catch them. Unfortunately the fins easily tear off of the rockets when they are handled by the kids in the rough way that little kids will handle things. Good thing I bought extra rockets!
Amazing, Simple, and Fun!!! August 3, 2010

I got this toy for my son's 2nd birthday and it was a big hit! The whole family tried it out and loved it. I was a little skeptical at first when I took it out of the package because it seemed flimsy but, it exceeded my expectations. I also didn't believe that it could go as high as they claim but, even my 2 year old can make that thing fly up high and fast. Amazing toy, I would recommend it for everyone but specifically ages 2-10
