Great inflatable punching bag for kids!

This was one of the gifts that Santa left for my 8 year old boy for COVID-era Christmas. Amongst the many changes to normal life during the pandemic, we had to stop taking taekwondo classes and it was clear that our little guy missed being able to perform the martial arts moves that he used to in his class.This inflatable punching bag was a great find. We set it up in some open floor space in his bedroom and he likes to do a few rounds of sparring prior to his nightly bedtime story. You do need a good hand-held or electric pump to fill this thing with air -- we used the same electric pump we use for an inflatable backyard pool.The product comes in two inflatable sections: the top half of the base is inflatable, and the top of the unit that you actually punch/kick is inflated separately. You also need to fill the bottom half of the base with water or sand to give the unit some weight so it bounces back after you hit it. I filled ours with water but in retrospect, I should have taken the effort to fill it with sand as I am a little worried it might leak one day and cause damage to the ceiling below my son's bedroom.Our son has played with this for about 6 weeks now and no leaks so far. I would recommend this if you have energetic youngsters who are into martial arts.

Pros
  • Can help reduce bullying and aggression in kids
Cons
  • May not provide enough resistance for lower body workouts
