RC Helicopters for Kids

Well, are they for kids, would be the first question. See, we just got this little mosquito helicopter model, with a remote control, and it is way too delicate to let our kids handle it. We’ve seen the same model over at some friends’ house and as soon as their 6 yo kid took hold [...]

Let’s Play Simon Again!

Many years ago, when you played “Simon Says”, it was actually a human-to-human interactive game. The first electronic version was launched in 1978, and became an instant hit during the ’80s. Playing Simon is now associated with repeating sequences of musical notes and flashing colorful lights, more than anything else, isn’t it? With so many [...]

Whatever Next? Electronic Diaries for Kids

Still searching the girls section, I cam across this cool little gadget. I used to keep diaries as a young girl, but there was no way for me to make sure they remain hidden, other than to, well, hide them. Kids today have other options, apparently. The latest rage is electronic diaries, where you can [...]
