20160616_154322My kids and I received ZURU Micro Boats for review. This toy does have some assembly required but comes with easy to follow instructions that make putting it together super easy. It has a total of 5.9 feet of race tracks and comes with a working crane and a speed boat. Once the tracks are assembled you can use the included cup to fill your tracks with water. They do not leak which is awesome! The speed boat comes alive in the water! As soon as you take it out of the water and pat it dry it turns off. The little speed boat races in four different directions which makes it super fun. When it bumps into the sides of the tracks it automatically will change directions. It can go side to side, forwards and backwards. My kids have been having a blast with this toy! It is nothing like they have ever played with before so has kept them completely entertained. At first we had a problem getting the speed boat to move around the tracks but we soon realized we did not have enough water in them. Once we added more water it cruised around nicely! My daughters love the crane and how it can actually move around and hold the boat. They are both excited about collecting all five of the speed boats so they can race! The micro boat comes with batteries included and we found that it is very important not to leave the boat in the water when not playing with it because it will keep going until the batteries die. If taken out when not in use they last forever! My girls have even taken the boat into the bath with them and taken it out to the pool for more play. These ZURU Micro Boatsis awesome and my kids and I have had a blast playing with it. It is fun for indoor and outdoor use! If you are looking for a fun and interactive toy for your kids then this is a great one!

  • We just bought this and I cannot get it to stop leaking. The bottom peg and hole do not seem to reach. Any suggestions?
