What Size Hula Hoop Should You Buy for Your Child or Grandchild This Christmas?

Let us make your Christmas shopping a bit easier. 

If you’re looking for a durable, bright hula hoop for your favourite kiddo this Christmas, you are in the right place!

While it seems logical to just buy the smallest hoop size from our website, or even grab a cheap one from the toy shop, getting the right hoop is important.  A good hula hoop makes sure your child can learn, enjoy hula hooping and build confidence as they play. 

A hula hoop is a fun, active gift that encourages movement and outdoor play. Kids grow quickly, but a properly sized hoop can last years.

We made you a little chart below. Estimate your kids body frame and height then check the bottom line of the chart to see what diameter (in inches) and size of tubing (in mm) is going to be best for your little one. 

Don't fret too much though, sizing is not an exact science! If your child is inbetween sizes add an inch to the smaller size eg. 29 instead of 28inches.

All our kids hoops at HoopSpin are handmade from durable polypropylene that is light but sturdy. We custom tape them with bright colourful tapes for grip and there's always the option to add sparkle. 

Once you've made your size choice you can choose the colours you need here

If you think your tiny human is too rough for tape we have some amazing coloured polypro that we import from the States. It's a tiny bit pricier but the tubing is solid colour so doesn't wear off when they're using it on concrete/gravel outside!

NB: Our Hoops contain small metal parts and require supervision during use.

Here's the chart, don't get too hung up on the precision. Bigger is generally better and they will love it even if it's an inch either way!

Thanks for reading 

Happy Hooping
