Update 7.23.20. – I still get requests for the instructions, so I wanted to share what I could. I no longer have the instructions, but wanted to provide some helpful photos. Please, see the bottom of the post.
If you are new to the blog, I must tell you that my boys love sports! They love playing in the games, just as much as they enjoy watching the games.
My youngest son has been playing soccer every year since he was about five. This season he jumped back into football for the second season but has decided to stick to basketball.
So, to fuel his excitement about starting the elementary basketball team in February, we just set up his new Easy Score Basketball Arcade in the corner of his bedroom. Since it’s basketball, of course, he wanted it right underneath his Chicago Bulls First Game certificate. He loves it because he can play alone or with others.

The Little Tikes Easy Score Basketball Arcade provides non-stop gaming fun! The arcade features a realistic scoreboard with multi-player mode and real arcade action sounds.
I love how it lights up and keeps score. It’s a great way to encourage competitive play and turn-taking with my older son and four-year-old nephew. It’s perfect for children 3 years and older and definitely fun for the whole family!

Easy Set-Up and Directions
Although the Little Tikes Easy Score Basketball Arcade looks pretty big, it’s quite simple to put together. My son and I put it together in less than 30 minutes. It’s made of durable plastic and is pretty sturdy.
Aside from a small screwdriver to add the batteries into the scoreboard, no tools are needed for assembly. Also, each piece is clearly labeled with an alphabet to make assembly easy.
Keep in mind that (3) AA batteries are required and are not included.
However, two easy-grip mini basketballs are included. The basketballs are not inflated when purchased. You will need to air these up yourself.
