Stilts are a perennial favorite around the world. Now the basic stilt design has been made a whole lot better -- easier to learn, easier to use, more ergonomically correct, and more FUN! Most stilts are simply straight poles with foot platforms attached to the sides. The tops of the poles rest behind the shoulders, forcing the upper body to slump forward. Not ours! Walkaroos have an S-bend which wraps comfortably around the shoulders. Another bend at the foot platform (11\" above the ground) places your weight directly over the lower pole for vastly improved control. Walkaroo Balance Stilts also quickly adjust to accommodate anyone from 4 ft. 6 in. to 6 ft. 6 in. (137-198 cm), so the whole family can get in on the fun! Great for improving balance and coordination. Made of rugged tubular steel, with a non-marking rubber \"foot,\" which allows for use indoors and out. For ages 6 years & up (to a maximum of 210 Lbs.) For even more FUN, and an added challenge, see the 4-Piece Walkaroo Xtensionz Set, to use when kids are ready. For younger kids, look for Walkaroo JR. Stilts. Comes in assorted colors of Red or Blue. Your color will be selected at random from available stock. Geospace item #11110.

My 4 year old wanted stilts, and so I could help her to learn how to use them, I bought a pair for myself. I am about 5'6", medium build, and these are more than sturdy enough for me. The weight limit indicated on the package is 210 lbs. They would be too long for my 4 year old, who is about 42" tall - they won't adjust down to that size at all, but I think they're not meant to. I bought her a smaller pair of a different brand. I had stilts as a kid, but that was 30 years ago. I found that it came back fairly quickly with these. If you're just starting out, you will need someone to steady you as get on these things (that seems to be the hardest part). They adjust at convenient increments, have a gripper bottom that so far hasn't left marks on my wood floor, and are very easy to put together. I really like them and have no complaints. Now mommy gets to have fun, too!

10 year old twin recipients loved them, as did brothers ages 12-16, and parents. Good for motor skills and balance, lots of fun and races. Sturdy build and will take kids from 4' up easily, secure pins allow height changes.

These are a lot of fun but my daughters (9 and 12) mastered them almost immediately and started complaining that they could not adjust them to be taller. The stilts themselves have adjustable handles to accomodate different heights of users, but the actual distance from the ground is not adjustable. Maybe that's a good thing --a fall from 11 inches is a lot better than a fall from 3 feet and we're not exactly trying out for the circus. Also, these are very sturdy--I comfortably walked around on them and I'm pretty much pushing their advertised weight capacity.

This is so fun still using 5-8 years later?

I gave my oldest daughter’s twins stilts for Christmas. They love walking on them. The next time the twins visited their cousins the stilts went with them. She enjoyed the stilts so much she asked for a set for her birthday. The stilts require no assembly and are easily adjusted to fit different heights. They are sturdy and so easy to use the kids picked up the skill in just a few days.

This was bought for a 12 year old girl. She was able to get the hang of walking on them within a few minutes. They are well made and easy to assemble and adjust. From the package insert in the box, it looks like you can also buy extensions to make the stilts taller. I am always looking for ways to get kids moving around (and out from behind a video screen), these do the job nicely and take up less room than a bike. These also adjust more than low enough for my 9 year old.

Our daughter really wanted stilts for her 5th birthday, we got these ones and have not been disappointed. They are actually quite a bit too long so that her arm pits do not sit over the right spot. That however, has worked out great! She just holds on to the handles and the arm rests that bend back make an place awesome for adults to hold onto. We do need to help her balance and the design makes it easy and comfortable. Our 3 and 2 year old were also able to use them with guidance. The metal is very sturdy and the feet have good traction grippers. We have gotten a lot of use out of them already! All three kids have fun with the stilts plus my husband and I sneek in turns and have fun as well!

These are strong steel stilts that need to have more adjustability in sizing for different sized children. The hand holds are attached by a strong screw that is supposed to hold the telescoping shoulder shafts and leg shafts together. This is a good idea, but for taller children, there aren't enough holes at the top for these bolts, and for shorter children, there aren't enough holes at the bottom for the spring-loaded detents. They can be modified to work by carefully drilling new holes where needed. This is more satisfactory for shortening the stilts than it is for lengthening them. For lengthening them the hand hold bolts can't be inserted through both telescoping shafts. This makes it necessary to put a new bolt (1 and 1/4 " long by 5/16" diameter) and locking nut. Such bolts are available at Lowe's; I recommend stainless steel since these stilts will commonly be left out in the rain wherever the user drops them. This bolt is necessary, because the bolt that attaches the hand holds no longer holds the weight of the user. The spring-loaded detents are not capable of supporting the weight. It is questionable whether the detents are even needed. I rate this product as four stars, because, in my opinion, it would be unusual if they were usable by most children right out of the box.

I am writing this review on Christmas day night. I bought these for my just turned nine year old daughter, who had specifically asked for stilts. I was a little but sceptical about these because it had an average of 2 stars, but I bought them nonetheless. Oh. My. Goodness. My daughter LOVES them. And I mean LOVES them. She has declared them her best present ever in 'all her years!!' Takes a bit of getting used to but by 3pm today she was off and there's no stopping her now. Her brothers and sisters are all clamouring for a go, they really have been the biggest hit. Such a refreshing change to buy something they love that doesn't involve a screen, headphones and expensive software!! Seriously, if you are debating about whether or not to buy these, debate no more. Just buy them. Amazing product, and I have a happy, happy daughter, so what more could I ever have asked for!!

Fantastic. Bought for special needs son who lives to do things by himself but struggles with practising. It is important for him to be able to achieve quite quickly or he becomes anxious. These are spot on and with the added bonus that his teenage sister and we adults can also mess about on them. Great buy.
