You know how a children's parachute will be used?
Hang on there - maybe you didn’t consider…
Lift up the parachute and run under before it falls
Bounce balls on top like popcorn
Fling it into the air and watch it drift down
Run underneath it and watch the colors rain down around you
Throw a few stuffed animals in the center and bounce them around
Put a baby underneath the parachute in the middle and pull it gently up and down for a game of peek-a-boo; baby finds it a hoot and so does everyone else
Achieve refreshing shade by draping over a piece of string strung between trees
Pile leaves (or snowballs) on the parachute and then toss them all over
Play tag while the parachute is periodically raised and lowered
Make waves
Drape the parachute over a sunny window and give a room a fanciful glow
Spread it out as a picnic blanket
Place small balls in the middle and then launch them all into the air at once
Pull a child who is seated on top all around the house
Catapult teddy bears using the parachute, up into the air and through a hula hoop
Make it go up and down with other kids
Play London Bridges, lowering the parachute over kids who are weaving in and out
Give your snow fortress an update
See how long you can keep a ball bouncing on it
See how high you can throw & catch a ball in the parachute
Make a fort to hide in
Raise and lower it over children who are lying on their backs underneath & make them scream with laughter
Drape the parachute over the table and then play under it
Lift it up high, lower it behind your backs & sit on the inside edges to make a giant mushroom
Take a picture of your kids playing with the parachute for a memory that will always make you smile

I bought this for my 2 year old daughter for her birthday. When it arrived we opened it up and took it out to the backyard. She was amazed, would not stop laughing, and had fun running from one side to the other as we would lift it and let it fall. She also tried to lift it to let it float in the air along with mom & dad, but the handles were a bit far apart, and it was just the 3 of us the day we first used it.
We're going on vacation with family soon, and there will be many toddlers and babies there. I can't wait to break this out with the group!

My family brought this product as a gift for one of our neighbor’s kids for her two year old birthday party. We picked this item because our neighbor’s kid is a very active child and loves being outside. I have recently talked to my neighbor and she says that her daughter loves the play chute parachute. The parachute was a hit for this two year girl, in fact my neighbor stated that her daughter got a hockey stick from her cousins and played with it for about two minutes and then went back to playing with the parachute

All of my 4 grandchildren had played with a similar item in preschool and just loved having one of their own to use. All four of them 10- 2 shared and had a good time together. They recalled old uses and made up their own new activities.

My husband and I bought the Playchute Parachute for my 9 month old son for Christmas. When our order came we were very happy with the quality of the product. The colors are bright and it comes in a great carrying bag. Christmas was yesterday and we have used it a couple of times and each time he sits under it and laughs so hard. There is also a great mesh hole in the top where we could see his little face smiling as the parachute hit his hands. We are very happy that we purchased this product and we will be ordering more items from Fat Brain in the years to come!

All products were great, and I loved the shipment process. It's been around 3 months and the toys get a rough play, but they are all still in good shape and the kids still enjoy them.
Some alternate spelling variations of this product:
parachutes, parashutes, pairachute, pareachute, play parachutes, parachute tents, nylon parachutes,
