Toys Games Hyper Dash is Actually Several Different Games In One, Wild Planet Hyper is Portable Durable And Fun, Wild Planet Hyper Dash and Hyper Jump .......







Hyper Jump increases the activity level by removing the electronic joystick and having kids use their bodies to tag targets by bending, stretching, hopping and jumping.

The saucer-sized base unit has a different colored and numbered pod connected to each of its four corners.

The live-action game is played on the floor and doesn't require a video screen or electrical outlet. The saucer-sized base unit has a different colored and numbered pod connected to each of its four corners. The base houses a microchip and speaker that calls out commands instructing players to jump on various pods in the fastest time possible. Lively music and encouraging phrases, as well as a declaration of who won and each player's score, keep the game upbeat and positive. Hyper Jump can be played solo, in pairs or in teams. Team mode accommodates up to eight players, making the game a social experience, ideal for playgrounds and parties. The game offers varying levels of difficulty, starting with simple color and number recognition and advancing to sequential, memory and basic math exercises.

Beginning levels call out colors and numbers. As players improve, the commands become more challenging. "Double Jump" means tag the same target twice. "Reverse" requires kids to remember and re-touch the previous pod. "Compu Jump" incorporates addition and subtraction as players jump on the sum or difference of the numbers they hear. "Crisscross" asks you to form an "X" by jumping on diagonal targets in both directions, and "Hyper Jump" demands that all five pods be tagged in numeric order. Audio alerts let kids know if they've landed on an incorrect pod and the command is repeated until the proper target is tagged.

Hyper Jump: Good for the Body, Good for the Mind. New game gets kids thinking and moving








Wild Planet Hyper Dash


Hyper Dash AND Hyper Jump Ultimate Active Games PackFrom Wild Planet

The Electronic Game that's as Fast as you are!
This just in! Hyper Dash wins an iParenting Award for "Outstanding Products, Toys & Games"

Hyper Dash will challenge you to be your best. It takes no time at all to learn, but selectable skill levels and four completely different game modes mean the challenge, like a real sport, will last a lifetime. Hyper Dash consists of one electronic tagger and five different colored and numbered targets. The tagger plays pre-recorded music and calls out which targets you need to strike. It tracks the amount of time taken to complete each course. The tagger uses radio frequency identification (RFID) to recognize the targets, which can be set up side-by-side, or spread out across the length of a football field. There's no limit to the distance between targets. Farther targets result in more running and exercise.

Hyper Dash can be played indoors or outdoors; solo, in pairs, or in teams. Parents vs. Kids is an entertaining option. Cooperative siblings can work together to beat their best time, while more competitive kids prefer the head-to-head mode. As your speed, skill and agility improve, the series of commands becomes longer and more challenging. Level one calls out the colors you need to tag, level two includes numbers, level three adds special commands (Double Strike, Triple Strike, Reverse, Double Reverse) and level four features Compu-Strike (addition/subtraction problems in which you tag the sum or difference of the numbers called out). Other play modes include the memory game of Micro Dash and multi-player relay races that promote teamwork. For a game of Hide 'n Dash, let your opponent hide the targets before you begin. Every game has encouraging cheers and upbeat music to keep kids on their feet, expending energy and having fun.

Features:- Follow the announcer's commands and tag the targets with the handheld unit -- fastest time wins!- Set the targets on the table, around the room, or outdoors to test your speed and agility to the max.- Choose from 4 game modes to challenge your speed, skill, memory, coordination and teamwork.- Play solo, head-to-head, or in teams.- Music and voice drive the action.- Includes ergonomically designed Hyper Dash unit and 5 targets. Requires 3 AA batteries, not included. Recommended Ages: 6-12 / Players: 1-8 Consumer Notices: Conforms to the safety requirements of ASTM F963.

From the makers of the popular Hyper Dash games, Hyper Jump is the target-touching total body action game. Start by laying down the large 22-inch-diameter, five-target hyper jump unit on the floor. Then listen as the Hyper Voice calls out commands. Tag the target pods with your hands and feet. Jump to blue! Now tag 3! Score the fastest time, and you win. After you've mastered the basics, tricky advanced commands put your speed and agility to the test. Play on your own or go head to head in a lightning-fast game of total-body action. Requires 3 AAA batteries, not included.


Hyper Jump is a new game that keeps minds sharp and bodies moving. A successor to Wild Planet’s award-winning Hyper Dash, Hyper Jump increases the activity level by removing the electronic joystick and having kids use their bodies to tag targets by bending, stretching, hopping and jumping
