Review: Great "B" ball for kids - This is a perfect size for my 2 year 1 month old Grandson. Who has been shooting this size basketball into a hoop at 7' high, for the last month. This ball has a nice grip to it, and is very close to a regulation size feel. He can hit 8 out of 10 shots from 3' back from net. He started when he was 1 year 10 months, on a 4' high hoop. He went from 4' to 6' in 45 days. Two weeks later, I raised mine to 7', and took him 20-30 minutes, then he began hitting consistently ! He lives and breathes basketball ! He has a net on his bedroom door, in the bathtub, their indoor one at 6', my adjustable one out back, set at 7'. My daughter and son in law have to bring the one from his bedroom that hangs on a door, when they go on vacation. Even when they go for a visit, he has to be able to shoot the ball ! I started getting him familiar with basketball, as early as he could understand. He was a natural, loves to come and watch old games with me. I am an old Celtics fan, so a lot of the late 1980's and 90's games. Specifically against the Detroit Pistons, and playoffs with LA ! It is truly a sight to see, a 2 year old swishing shot after shot, on a 7' net !
Review: Great learning tool for the little kiddos! - These balls came just as described. I have a total of 18 balls and will say that some of these are lighter/more faded than others. However, other than that they are great practice for my pre-k to 2nd graders to practice dribbling and shooting. They have good grip and hold air really well. Out of the 18 I've only noticed 1 that needed to be re-inflated completely. Could be they were squeezed tightly but haven't noticed any problems since then. I want to point out that even some of my more advanced 1st/2nd graders gravitate towards this size ball. I find it helpful in teaching the basic foundational skills of basketball without making it too overwhelming or scary. So definitely a plus.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kid tested and parent approved!
*by J***B on April 1, 2019*

This is a small basketball....what more can you say about it!?!? Let's see, the quality is good, it's green and blue, it bounces, etc. Actually none of that really matters in this review because our 10 month old thinks it is the best thing on the planet and it keeps him entertained for hours at a time playing with it and chasing it around the house. For that reason alone this thing gets like 100 stars and it wouldn't matter what it is made out of!
