Kids Dartboards

Luke Littler’s run to the final of the PDC World Darts Championship in January 2024 has inspired young people and children to start playing darts. It was a record-breaking tournament for the then 16-year-old on debut, winning six matches to become the youngest player to appear in the final at Alexandra Palace.

The final between Littler and Luke Humphries attracted record viewing figures on Sky Sports and has made thousands of boys and girls want to try darts for themselves. For parents wondering what age should kids play darts and how do I get my child into darts, Darts Corner has created this specific collection to make it more easier than ever to find a suitable dart board for young players to play on.

Why should children use electronic dart boards?

Electronic or magnetic dart boards are the best option for younger players for many reasons. Soft tip darts are used with an electronic board and the points are made with plastic, rather than the sharp metal points used in steel tip darts, which are used on a bristle (Sisal) dartboard. A soft tip dart is the ideal choice as you are less likely to cause an injury or damage your surroundings.

Many of the soft tip dart boards will come with lots of different features, such as electronic scoring, which can be helpful for children learning how the game is scored and the rules of darts if they are new to the game. An electronic board also comes with various game options, so kids can have endless fun playing all the different games available.

You might also want to consider a steel tip dartboard in the future, once your children have reached a suitable age. The points in steel tip darts are sharp and made of metal, so will not be suitable for youngsters.

Fun for the whole family

Electronic dart boards and soft tip darts are safe for kids, but young children should still be supervised as the darts still have points on them. A game of darts is a great way for the whole family to get together.

Families can bond whilst playing darts together and the game can actually help to improve coordination skills in children. It is important to first explain the rules and how to use the darts and what not to do with them.

Magnetic dart boards for kids

For really young children, soft tip darts may still be a little too sophisticated, so a kids magnetic dart board would be a more age appropriate option. The Mission Magnetic Mayhem is a popular children’s magnetic dart board and has seven different games to choose from which are suitable for all levels.

This magnetic dart board for kids also comes with 12 darts to use, all of which have extra-strong magnetic heads to help them stick firmly to the board. A magnetic board is the perfect introduction to darts and the various game options will provide endless hours of fun for young children.
