Real talk
The 20 minutes your child doesn't ask for the iPad
Most parents who buy this game tell us their child played outside for longer than expected, without once asking to go back inside. The Target Game is fast enough to hold attention, simple enough that a 3-year-old grasps the rules in seconds, and energetic enough to tire them out before teatime.
You get the win: screen time genuinely drops. Your child gets the real one: outdoor play that feels like their choice, not yours.

While they play
What they're quietly learning while they play
Looks like play. Works like a lesson.
Hand-eye coordination
Every throw teaches aim and distance judgment. No screen teaches this at 3 years old.
Gross motor strength
Running, bending, throwing,15 minutes on this mat builds fitness without feeling like exercise.
Turn-taking and strategy
Solo mode or teams: either way, they learn to plan their next move and read the other player.
Colour recognition
Spotting their team's discs among the targets reinforces colour learning through real play.

Get ready for life
Why real play matters
Real brain growth comes from real play.
Perfect starting age
The discs are sized for small hands and the rules sink in on the first round. Older siblings and adults join in just as easily.
Minutes of focused play
Fast enough to hold attention, varied enough that each round feels new. Most families play multiple rounds back-to-back.
Screen-time battles
Parents report their child chooses this game over tablets and phones,because it's more fun and they're moving around outside.

Questions & answers
Questions mums and grandparents ask
What age is this actually for?
Ages 3 to adult. The discs are light enough for a 3-year-old's throw, and the game is competitive enough to hold a teenager's attention. Most families span 3,8, and it works brilliantly. If you're buying for a specific birthday, this is the one,it grows with them.
How long will they actually play for?
Most rounds take 10,15 minutes. Families tell us their child often wants to play multiple rounds in a session. The best part: they ask to play again after dinner, not to go back inside. That's the screen-free win you're after.
Is it durable? Will it break?
The mat is made from durable fabric, the discs from lightweight plastic that won't splinter, and the pegs from sturdy material. We've been making toys for 231 years because they survive real play. One mum told us, 'Toys that don't break after five minutes of play.' That's the standard here.
What if it rains or the weather changes?
The mat packs down and stores flat in a cupboard or garden shed. The discs won't warp from getting wet. On rainy days, many families set it up inside for a different game. It's portable enough to move indoors or to a covered patio.
How much does it cost?
The Target Garden Game - Giant Garden Game is £22.50 today (down from £37.99). Klarna is available at checkout if you prefer to spread the cost.
What's your returns policy?
30 days, full refund, no conditions. Return it for any reason and we refund in full. We've been standing behind what we make since 1795.

Our story
Making toys worth keeping since 1795.
Jaques of London was founded in 1795. We invented croquet, table tennis, and the Staunton chess set. For 230 years, we've been making things that pull children away from passive entertainment and into active, curious, hands-on play.
Jaques of London has made games for families since 1795. The Target Garden Game carries that same philosophy: keep it simple, make it robust, and get everyone playing together. We chose lightweight flying discs, a bright mat, and no batteries because outdoor games should need nothing but your family. This game has been tested by real families in real gardens. It works because it was built to solve what you're solving right now: genuine screen-free play that children choose.
Toys and games that leave something behind: a skill, a memory, a piece of play that gets passed on.
Joe, Jaques of London
