ACTION! ToppleTubes Sets
Incorporate these patented, one-piece rotomolded vinyl tubes into a multitude of activities with all ages! Use them in P.E. games for elementary students, fitness routines for older students or athletes, or simply add them to an existing activity with any age for variety and a fun new challenge!
Turn Over the Fun
Place ToppleTubes on end around the playing area. Be sure that 12 tubes have the blue end up and 12 have the yellow end up. Divide the class into two teams and designate each either blue or yellow. On the signal, players run from tube to tube flipping them so their team's color is on top. Teams earn points for each tube with their team color up. The team with the most points at the end of the round wins.
PE teachers and coaches can also use these multipurpose tubes for relays and target practice. The included activity instructions also explain several different ways to arrange the tubes for an effective agility course.
Great for All Ages
Made of tough vinyl, the tubes are sturdy, soft, and lightweight. This construction makes them appropriate for all ages. They have hexagon-shaped ends that narrow in the center, which helps aid grip and comfort. The tops are flat and even so they can be set up without tipping.
Available with an antimicrobial coating which helps protect against the spread of harmful bacteria!
Set includes 24 tubes (8-1/2"H x 4"D), a VersaBag mesh storage bag, and activity instructions with multiple activity and fitness options. Patented.
