Tucker Toys Gets a Grip on Getting Kids Active

July 2, 2016 - In a time when screen time is occupying almost all of the time, Tucker Toys is transforming play with some new sports toys that are taking kids off the couch and onto the field. "It's 'E-Z' to get active with the new group of E-Z Grip™ balls from Tucker Toys," Mark Nathan, President and CEO of Tucker Toys, said.

Adding to the success of its current hit items, The E-Z Grip Play Ball and E-Z Grip Jr. (MSRP $9.99 and $6.99 respectively), the company proudly announces the availability of the E-Z Grip Soccer Ball and E-Z Grip Football ($12.99 each).

What makes the E-Z Grip line so special is the super tactile grip; the ability to bounce anywhere - on water, sand, grass and street! The multi-age range use of the E-Z Grip balls makes them fun for preschoolers, grade-schoolers, teens and adults, and all of the E-Z Grip balls are special needs approved*.

The transforming play from Tucker began with the launch of the E-Z Grip™ Play Ball as an ultimate ball offering high bounce and super grip. It features a soft, but tough, outer web that makes it a little easier to catch. Its high bounce delivers on any surface and the durable inner ball is encased in the E-Z Grip's outer web that provides peak performance for playing everything from catch to kickball.

"We're proud to offer so much innovation that translates into fun for the whole family, but we're even more excited that our products are motivating kids to be active," Nathan said.

Catering to the demand, Tucker released its new E-Z Grip Soccer Ball and Football, which are now available nationwide.

The E-Z Grip Football is perfect for one-handed catches in any weather, in the pool or on the muddy field. It's also great for teaching young receivers how to master the catch!

The E-Z Grip Soccer Ball is a dream on the field and a sure thing for goalies. The rubber texture gives players added foot control and low-impact heading, while the lightweight and super bounce makes the ball travel down the field farther and faster. For goalies, catching the soccer ball with the special high-grip outer web provides ultimate practice to save the game!
