Getting your kids outdoors can sometimes be a challenge.  Technology offers them an abundance of indoor distractions- TV, movies, video games, etc.  And that makes getting creative with your outdoor activities sometimes mandatory. A cool alternative to roller skating and bike riding is a ride-on vehicle. Ride-on toys offer something for all children- easy to use (just sit and go), a cool look, and the feel of riding a motorcycle, car, or off-roading vehicle.  You can choose between pedal or electric- to give your child a bit of a workout or fulfill their need for speed.

The Smart Trike Ride N Scoot grows with your child starting as early as 14 months. It easily converts from an independent ride-on into a special, stable 4 wheeled scooter (for 24 months -4 years). It helps develop motor skills, balance, and self-confidence.

The Berg Orange Buddy Go Kart is a great option for both girls and boys (ages 3-8). The automatic freewheel allows the driver to pedal forward, coast, and pedal in reverse to drive backwards. They can ride this over bumpy or flat terrain and enjoy steering with ease.

The Razor Dirt Rocket MX350 Electric Off-Road Bike is perfect for your little daredevil (ages 13+).  This scaled down dirt bike goes up to 14 miles per hour! With an electric powered chain-driven motor, it offers a comfortable yet quiet ride on all terrains.

But don’t just take our word for it- check out our great Ride-On Category!

When a pregnant celebrity wants to gift the baby’s Daddy who does she call? Dazadi.com, that’s who! Dazadi.com helps customers select the perfect product based on their budget, space, and individual needs.

“We discussed the size of the space to help recommend the best game table for activity level and where the table would reside. We have both indoor and outdoor tables as well as tables that fold up easily if the space is not ideal.” Says Elan, VP of Customer Experience.

In the end, Jessica Simpson was well taken care of and enjoyed her new table tennis table from Dazadi.com! New baby came a bit later!

It comes as no shock that an NBA Hall of Fame Legend would need a truly epic home game room. So when Magic Johnson chose to build his own play palace, he called Dazadi.com for the hook up! Dazadi created the perfect game space which included arcade games, air hockey tables, and more!

But if you’re gonna play in Magic’s house, you’d better bring some spare change! Rather than disable the coin-op function on his arcade systems, Magic occasionally requires his guests to pay—especially if his guests include Isiah Thomas! Ha!

How great are the NBA Playoffs this year?

I can’t remember the last time so many great story lines were present during the playoffs. If I had to come up with a theme, it would be “out with the old and a great big welcome to the new.” The type of team inspired basketball that teams like the Memphis Grizzlies, Golden State Warriors, and the Chicago Bulls are playing is something we haven’t seen in a very long time. The usual suspects like Kobe, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Pau Gasol, and other members of the old guard aren’t there. And Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobli, and Tony Parker will soon join them. I don’t know about you, but I’m loving it. The youthful pass-first, defense-oriented basketball that young NBA Players like Marc Gasol, Andrew Bogut, Tony Allen, Joakim Noah, and others are playing is REALLY fun to watch. Not to mention that the death of “expert jump-shooting” in the NBA might have been greatly exaggerated. How about the shooting prowess of Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Nate Robinson, and Marco Belinelli?

Am I alone here? How many of you are loving these NBA Playoffs as much as I am?

As the weather warms and fuel prices rise, summer “staycations” become an appealing, cost-effective option.  Many of us imagine pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey or stuffy garden parties when thinking of backyard soirees. But with lots of lawn games, furniture sets, and outdoor game tables to choose from, Dazadi can help you turn your backyard or patio into the ultimate vacation-zone.

Lawn Games:  Our lawn game selection includes everything from the traditional croquet and washer toss sets, to full badminton and volleyball packages!  Break out every child’s favorite, the trampoline, with safety enclosure for a safer way to defy gravity. We even carry portable, home-sized tetherball sets for a backyard game collection that will make you popular with the neighbors.  Bocce ball, a game that has been played in some form since the days of Ancient Rome, is also a fun addition to any barbeque or hangout.

Outdoor Game Tables: Several of your favorite table games can also be played outdoors. We carry the finest in outdoor table tennis tables and even an outdoor shuffleboard table! The unique Cirrus Shuffleboard Table from Hudson Shuffleboards, offers solid wood construction and some very special  features that help it stand up to the elements.

We carry a huge selection of pool basketball hoops, pool volleyball sets, inflatable games (some including squirt guns- so hard to resist!), and remote control toys. If you don’t have the space or cash to build an in-ground pool, an above ground swimming pool is a fantastic option. We offer an array of pools in every shape, size, and price point to fit your space and budget.

Rediscover your backyard (without draining your savings account) this summer with our awesome selection of “staycation” essentials!

Achilles was a great Greek warrior who had one weakness. Here is hoping that Kobe’s fate is better than the great Achilles whose tendon injury brought him down. The kind of basketball that Kobe has been playing this last month is nothing short of incredible. However, it pains me greatly to think that this injury could end his basketball career. His latest injury has made me feel like maybe I’ve taken him for granted. Kobe ALWAYS brings his best game to the basketball court, and he always has that unmatched intensity and desire to win. He entered the league at age 17, and we’ve watched him develop as a basketball player as well as a man. Even if he does come back from this injury to a point where he is as good as he’s been this year, it’s is clear that his time on the court is coming to an end, and it makes me realize how truly luck we have been to see him play. He is truly worthy of his place among the other great basketball gods.
