The ball is just great, especially for small children (mine is 2,5 years) is recommended. He jumps perfectly, you can catch him super well because of the non-slip surface - even my child !!! He also jumps if you want very high, and is very easy, so that sometimes can throw so without getting hurt! The ball is great for playing in the home. Not suitable for outdoors because it is unfortunately broken quickly, the surface has no sharp stones from :-)
