5.0 out of 5 stars Great Parachute!
I bought two of these parachutes; one for my daughter and one as a gift. They have been a big hit. Kids come up with great uses for the parachute beyond the play pictured on the box. The parachutes make great forts to hide in and when draped over a window they give a room a bright and colorful glow that kids love. We have also used the parachute as a picnic blanket and...

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun, but smaller than I expected
My two year old son fell in love with parachutes during his Gymboree play classes. After just a few weeks, I decided that I needed one for home so we could continue the fun there and invite the neighborhood children to join in.

All kids love parachutes and there is so much you can do with them. He loves being dragged around the house in it, hiding under it,...

I bought two of these parachutes; one for my daughter and one as a gift. They have been a big hit. Kids come up with great uses for the parachute beyond the play pictured on the box. The parachutes make great forts to hide in and when draped over a window they give a room a bright and colorful glow that kids love. We have also used the parachute as a picnic blanket and strung it in trees to provide shade. You can't miss buying this parachute and Amazon.com's price is great. I have seen the same item go for over $40.00 on ebay. My kids are 3 and 4 and I forsee that they will be playing with their parachute for a long, long time yet. Loving our parachutes!

My three-yr-old daughter LOVES this! (So do I.) And when one of her little friends comes to play, it keeps them busy for ages. This gets the highest fun recommendation.

This parachute is the hit of the party, playdate, or just an afternoon in the yard. My two little girls grew up at gymboree classes and love having their own parachute. They have hours of fun whenever we pull it out. The parachute is durable and can be machine washed. It packs up small into its own duffle bag. A great item to keep in the trunk of the car in case you end up at a park or somebody's yard with no playground equipment.

This is truly a great product..Children of all ages and sizes love running under the parachute or bouncing a beach ball on top, even the grown ups love it..Also it is grest for setting boundries for the children to help keep them seated during parties or just everday activities...best of all we have found that if it does get alittle dirty..we just toss it in the tub with woolite and cool water and within 20 minutes its dry and right back in its carrying case...It"s the BEST

I tried to determine the size of this parachute prior to purchase. I guessed it would be 10 feet by the amazon pictures that I compared with the Pacific Tent pictures/literature. The Playchute arrived today. It is 10 feet as I expected and it's just the size I was looking for!

I bought this for my 4 year old son and 1 year old daughter, and they both love it! Hey, I love it! It's a portable bag of instant fun for kids and adults to play together. I just taught my son about waves as I made waves of air pass under the parachute. A fun game we found was to put a Hoberman Expanding Universe Sphere in the middle of the playchute and have everyone throw it up. It's a load of fun watching the sphere expand and contract as it flies through the air and lands. This is a toy noone would regret getting.

This review is from: Pacific Play Tents Playchute 10' Parachute (Colors and Designs May Vary) (Toy)
We bought this parachute for my 6yr old son and twin 2yr old daughters. On the weekends they have a lot of their friends over to play. It is hard to find something that everyone can play with together when there are five or six kids. It is one thing that they can all play with and is great for both ages. This toy teaches kids to work together as a team. I agree that you can not fit many kids under it at once, but that has also helped me teach them about taking turns. When they play with it outside they usually put beach balls on it, and when they use it in the basement they use pillows or stuffed animals. This toy is great for all ages. There are so many games to play with it. I don't think my kids could ever get bored with this toy.

All my children ranging in ages from 3 to 9 love the playchute parachute. I bought this for my 3 year old daughter's birthday and we all had a ball with it - even the adults! It seems very durable and able to hold up to kids roughly pulling on it. -very fun!

I bought this as a party game for my daughter's 4th birthday. The nice thing was that she got to use it over & over again after the party. The kids loved it!!!! Her 2 year old sister asks to play with it all the time. We drap it over the table and they play under it and they even love just sitting on it outside. It was played with all summer long and now that winter is here it's coming back inside. It was well worth the price. I was actually suprised how durable and large it was. One of the best toys I've bought!!

All kids love parachutes and there is so much you can do with them. He loves being dragged around the house in it, hiding under it, using it to send one of his teddy bears flying through the air and making it go up and down with the other kids.

The only reason that this product receives three stars is that it was smaller than I expected. The product dimensions are clearly stated but I had difficulty transferring those dimensions into how it would work. It is difficult for the kids to run under the parachute because it is so small.

Very good for the price but I will need to buy a larger one.
