Editor's Notes
June 11, 2020:
When you don't have the room for a full-size cornhole set, a tabletop version is just the ticket — but be aware that these versions are indeed quite small. We've selected both those that use bean bags and those made for coins or similar discs. If you plan on playing a few games with your children, be sure to check the age recommendations on the latter. Some, such as Hasbro Coinhole, are best for older kids who will not accidentally ingest the small game pieces. Note that these types usually require more patience and skill. The GoSports Coinshot, for instance, takes some practice, as the chips don't bounce quite the way that real coins do.
As for regular bean bag models, we added the Buffalo Games Mini, which has fun finger catapults, and the GSE Games & Sports Expert Toss Set, with tiny bags you toss. Both have simple but relatively attractive styling, and come with everything you need to get started playing. Plus, they aren't too pricey, unlike the Premium Flipin' Table-Top or the American Cornhole Association Official. For something a little different, there's the Elite Sportz Junior. Two games in one, it has a basketball and a tic-tac-toe side, but only comes with one board. It's also a bit larger than some, so if you have small tables or are really crunched for space, you may want to skip it.
