Description
This inflatable rubber play ball is covered in the Prehistoric Land dinosaur illustrations, drawn in a detailed, old-fashioned engraved style. The ball itself is a soft pale blue, and across it roam dinosaurs in teal, rust brown, slate grey and cream: a long-necked sauropod, a fierce meat-eater with tiny arms, a sail-backed hunter and a sea reptile diving down through the water. A raised woven texture runs over the whole surface, so it feels good in the hand as well as looking the part. It measures 12.5cm in diameter and weighs a light 0.162KG, a compact size that is easy to throw, catch and carry.
It is a ball made for play, whether that means a gentle game of catch in the garden, throwing and rolling it across the park or passing it back and forth around the playroom on a rainy afternoon. At 12.5cm across it is small enough to tuck into a bag for days out, and the light rubber build makes it easy to handle. The dinosaur print gives every game a story too, with plenty of creatures to spot and name as the ball turns in the hand. We think it makes a cheerful gift, and when the game is over it looks good sitting on a bedroom shelf.
The ball is made of rubber, and it comes in a yellow box with a cut-out window that shows off the print, so it is ready to give as it is. Should it lose a little air over time, it can be reinflated: moisten the needle first, inflate to 2lbs and take care not to overinflate. For everyday care, wipe the rubber with a damp cloth after outdoor play and let it dry before putting it away. For a gift, simply tie a ribbon round the box and add a card.
