Electronically Interactive Target Game is a game to be played indoors by one or more children, the game comprising a target being a flexible sheet hung on a wall or attached to a portable stand; mural-like artwork on the sheet portraying characters playing an action sport; a projectile being a stuffed ball corresponding to the sport portrayed in the artwork; and sensors comprising pressure sensitive electrical switches attached behind the sheet and located in selected areas which, when struck, activate a feedback signals such as a voice heard through a speaker. The voice says phrases that relate to the success or failure of the child hitting the selected areas to facilitate the fantasy of actually playing a game with the characters in the artwork. Optionally, an LCD or a colored LED alphanumeric display may indicate numerical scores. A vibration sensor may be attached to the target sheet to detect contact of the projectile with a non-selected area being the rest of the target outside of the selected areas. Contact with the non-selected area is assumed if the vibration sensor is activated while none of the pressure sensitive sensors are detecting contact with any of the selected areas. The game encourages creative role playing, physical skill improvement, and physical exercise including pitching, throwing, kicking, running and jumping.
