HAMILTON, N.J., Feb. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Tucker Toys transforms play again with several new products arriving in stores this Spring.
Tucker put an "E-Z" twist on the traditional two-player paddle game; will "launch" a kite flying system; and "tuned-in" for a Bluetooth enabled flying disc.
Mark Nathan, CEO and President of Tucker Toys, said, "Tucker Toy is always pushing the limits on new and innovative product that will increase activity and outdoor fun. Our new products continue to change the dynamic of traditional play."

Kite-A-Pult (MSRP $19.99 for ages 10+) makes flying a kite a breeze. Tucker's new self-launching kite flying system allows kids to launch their kite into the air and enjoy the fun of flying their kite right away, without the help of others The portable Kite-A-Pult hand-launcher makes it easy to pull back then rocket the kite into the air to catch the wind. Not only is the Kite-A-Pult the most innovative and exciting kite out there, but it also doubles as a Glider! Its two toys in one and comes in three super colorful designs.
Disc Jock-e (MSRP $24.99) is a flying disc with Bluetooth technology. A game of catch never sounded so good when the Disc Jock-e soars through the airwaves.
