Gamtec 3-Pack Mini Basketballs for Toddlers & Kids – 5-Inch PVC Balls with Air Pump for Indoor, Outdoor & Pool Play

This Gamtec set includes three 5-inch mini basketballs made from soft, durable PVC, designed for young children and teenagers. Each ball is lightweight and easy to grip, making them ideal for indoor mini hoops, door hoops, trampoline basketball sets, or pool and beach games. The package also comes with an air pump so you can start playing right away. These basketballs are a safe, non-toxic option for active play.

What size are these mini basketballs?

Each basketball in the set measures 5 inches in diameter. That size fits comfortably in small hands and is also easy for adults to handle when playing alongside kids. The balls are noticeably smaller than a regulation basketball, which helps toddlers and younger children practice shooting and dribbling without feeling overwhelmed.

Are they safe for toddlers and indoor use?

The balls are made from PVC that meets US CPSC safety standards for children’s toys. They are soft enough to reduce the risk of injury indoors and bounce well on most surfaces. The material is also water-friendly, so you can take them to the pool or beach. Because they are lightweight (the three-pack weighs about 16 ounces total), they won't cause damage if they hit furniture or windows.

Item specifications

Where can you use these balls?

These mini basketballs work with most indoor mini hoops, including over-door and trampoline hoops. They are also great for pool basketball, beach games, bath time play, or just bouncing around in the yard. The bright blue color stands out in water and on grass. Because they are soft and durable, they hold up well on concrete, asphalt, and sand.
