ZipString, 1 pc
The first time our ToyAcademy team saw ZipString at a toy fair, jaws nearly hit the floor. This seemingly magical loop floats through the air, ripples and dances with your movements, and appears to pay very little attention to gravity.
Once you've mastered the basics, there's a whole world of cool tricks to explore. The largest loop is so big that one person can control the ZipString while another attempts to jump through the floating loop without the string folding in on itself.
Perfect for showing off your latest tricks at the playground, in the schoolyard, or while passing the time at the bus stop. Expect plenty of curious looks and questions about how it works.
Scan the QR code on the box to watch videos, pick up new ideas, and learn how to perform tricks of your own.
The ZipString charges via USB-C and makes a soft humming sound while the loop is in motion. Includes 1 × 3.7V Li-ion rechargeable battery.
Includes 3 strings in different sizes and colours.

What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

Suitable for children aged 8 yrs. to 11 yrs.Your child can simply play with this toy without first having to figure out how it works. There is no wrong or right way to play here, and your child doesn't have to follow any rules. Playing in the present moment is the goal here. At ToyAcademy, we call this type of play intuitive play. It's also called "open ended play". Let your child play by following their intuition and seize the opportunity to watch how it unfolds.
Unlike types of play which are aimed at achieving a result or playing within specific boundaries, intuitive play will most often let you have interesting insight into your child’s own thought process, imagination, and problem-solving skills.
This activity stimulates important skills which support your child's well-being and ability to learn:
- Develops and improves .
- This is a great way for your child to improve their proprioception, which improves their concentration and gives them the confidence to use their body in other types of active play.
