Corn_Flake: What size Tennis Racket should I buy for 3 year old?
Our city parks & recreation is offering toddler tennis classes. I have to buy my 3 year old a tennis racket. Walmart has a 19″ & a 21″ Wilson Jr Racket. Which size do we need?

Walmart has an ok variety of rackets, and they should say age & hand size on the label. If your child is 3, I can’t imagine a large hand so probably the smallest size they have. Good luck kiddo! 🙂
In my opinion, this will depend on how long you think your child is going to want to play, and how willing you are to replace the frame when your child outgrows it. Here’s what I mean:
19″ frames are for kids up to 4 years old. 21″ frames are for kids ages 4-6. So technically, the 19″ frame would be best for a 3 year old. But if you think your kid is going to keep playing for a few years, you might just want to get the 21″ frame now, and let him/her grow into it. That way you get as much use out of it as you can.
