2022’s Top Sparkler Play Activities

What have Sparkler families been playing in 2022? 

We looked at all the plays of the year to find the most popular learning activities families have done over the last 12 months using Sparkler. 

Roll, Toss, Bounce — a Sparkler activity that invites parents and children (babies through age 5) to pass a ball back and forth to grow focus and muscles — came in at #1. How is this building focus? Encouraging children to take turns and continue the game of back and forth helps to learn focus!
