Playing Sports Can Reap Many Benefits
There are many benefits to playing sports. Introducing kids to sports at a young age is an especially great idea. Don’t get me wrong, we’ve never pushed our kids into organized sports teams and crazy schedules, but we have introduced them to a variety of sports and given them opportunities for playing.
Some benefits from participating in sports can include:
- Many athletes do better academically. Playing a sport requires a lot of time and energy but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Sports requires memorization, repetition, and learning — skillsets that are directly relevant to class work. The determination and goal-setting skills a sport requires can be transferred to the classroom too.
- Sports teach teamwork and problem-solving skills.
- Physical health benefits of sports can include getting into shape, building muscle, and even encourage good decision making like avoiding smoking and drinking.
- Sports boost self-esteem as kids watch their hard work pay off and they achieve goals.
- Exercising is a natural way to loosen up and let go of stress so playing sports is the perfect avenue to do this!
GoSports – Basketball, Baseball, & Fun, OH MY!
The GoSports brand has become my go-to for many things. From fun croquet game sets to indoor table games, giant 4 in a row to sledding; they have so many great products that our family loves. Today, I want to talk about some of their brand new sports gear options!
GoSports Tot Shot Modern Kids Basketball Set – Indoor & Outdoor Toy Hoop for Toddlers
We have an active toddler now who loves to climb, play, and explore. She especially loves balls so I thought this Tot Shot Basketball Set and extra balls was a must for her. This adjustable, portable basketball stand is great as it features six height settings and ranges from 29″ to 43″ tall. Set up is easy as the pieces just snap together.
As soon as the basketball hoop was assembled, she instinctively knew what to do! She immediately grabbed one of the balls and started shooting hoops. She thinks it’s hilarious every time the ball goes through the net. I love how ‘chunky’ and durable this set feels. The fact that it can be used both indoors and out is also a huge plus!
GoSports LotBall Backyard Baseball Bat and Ball Set
This plastic baseball game for kids, also known as Lotball, offers ultimate backyard fun. It’s an exciting swerve-pitch baseball game that everyone, of all ages, can enjoy. The ball is uniquely designed to crank up the intensity of traditional plastic backyard baseball with wildly fun and unpredictable pitches. I really like how lightweight both the bat as well as the balls are as it truly makes this baseball game easy for kids kids (and adults) of all ages to experience.
And don’t forget to grab a set of extra balls so you’ll never worry about running out!
GoSports 32 Inch Tabletop Foosball Game Set
Have you also considered the fact that sports doesn’t have to be the typical ‘ball’ games. This foosball game set brings tabletop fun right to your kitchen or game room table for easy access, year round play!
Assembly on this foosball game was a bit more in depth compared to the basketball hoop but it came together nicely in about 30 minutes. The instructions were laid out quite well so the process was fairly simple.
Overall, this Foosball set is really neat. I love how much more compact it is over a full sized table, yet it still offers a nice playing size. It’s lightweight enough to be easy to move when needed as well. My only complaint would be that it only comes with two balls so we’ll have to be diligent that the toddler doesn’t walk off with them. Overall, it’s a beautiful looking game that is well made and fun to play.
Tell me, which game do you want for your family?

Seeing the foosball table reminds me of all the fun we had when our kids were growing up playing air hockey and foosball. Maybe time to get ones for the grandkids.

My niece is moving in to her grandmothers home hopefully by november. She is hoping to make a game room so sharing this with her.
My great niece is 6 and her dad wants her to try ever sport there is. If she does not like he does not push it. Her mother teachers her all the things that dad cannot do……… like ride a bike or roller skate etc. All kids need to try everthing at least once phy
