Review on Colorful Kids Toy Rocket Launcher: Ignite Their Imagination! by Paul Dobson

Bought this for a couple of 4 year old boys to play with. They immediately got the hang of it and were able to use it themselves, although they couldn't shoot far. :P That's a bonus for me; As a result, the toy grows with you and doesn't get boring even after a month. Us adults have no problem launching them pretty far (I don't know exactly HOW MUCH, it depends on launch angle), so I know they'll make it eventually! A few features: 1) The launch angle can be varied, allowing you to shoot anywhere from straight to perfectly horizontal. I hadn't noticed this when ordering, so it was a pleasant surprise. 2) Each rocket is approximately 10 inches long and maybe 1.5 inches in diameter. I thought they could be a little bigger but that's not a problem. Because they are light, however, they are easily attacked by the wind. So be careful where you use them and under what conditions. 3) Children can easily use this toy by themselves. You may need an adult to help with the initial assembly (not difficult at all), but then the little ones can climb up and walk without additional help. It is important! :) We are very happy with this purchase and look forward to many hours of happy play for children!
