What it is:
An indoor Bocce set with puck-shaped disks that can slide on carpet and hardwood floors.
Why we love it:
Carpet Bocce is the product of a great idea by a father and son team of carpet installers. Looking for an easier way to move furniture, they invented EZ Moves® Furniture Slides™ which became a hit in the early nineties. It was a natural evolution that their carpet slides idea would transition into the toy market. Carpet Bocce combines the skill and strategy of Bocce Ball with the sliding action of the FunSlides carpet puck. It works on all kinds of floors, one side for carpet and the other side for hard floors. The game is played using one small puck (called the pallino) and eight larger pucks. The object of the game is for one team to get as many of their pucks closer to the pallino than the opposing team's closest puck. The set includes 8 sliding Bocce pucks and 1 Bocce pallino puck.
Who we'd give it to:
Carpet Bocce is a fun rainy day game for
families with kids ages
6 years and up.
