Mini Putt Pool Tables

This Creative Activity Combines Miniature Golf and Pool Playing

— February 3, 2013 — Art & Design
This Mini Putt Pool Table is a newly created child-friendly activity, which blends the well-known mini putt game with aspects of pool, creating a wonderfully fun activity.

This new putter pool game is a great indoor activity for children looking to have some fun at home. The game includes a large green floor piece, similar to the surface of a pool table, but instead of it being on a large table, it's actually situated on the floor. The game also provides miniature putt putts for children to use as a way to hit the designated pool balls into the holes. Children can actually stand on the green carpeted piece as they try to hit the balls into the holes.

This is a great way for children to learn hand-eye coordination, and it's also a fun indoor option for parents looking to occupy their children inside.
