Webkinz Cheeky Monkey webkins
 |
This Cheeky Monkey Webkinz is so cute, and yet...he looks like he's capable of some good-natured mischief too. Hey, he's a monkey, right? :)
Not familiar with Webkinz? These toys are so cool...they come with a secret pass code that opens up a special web site where the kid and an adult can name their new "pet", adopt it and learn all about it. So besides the good old-fashioned fun, these unique critters also have a fun online component as well.
The Cheeky Monkey (love that name!) is about 8.5 inches tall and has the most adorable hands and feet, not to mention those chubby cheeks.

Hasbro TV Mini Golf
 |
My family loves to play mini golf but lets face it, by the time we get down there it costs over $20 for the 3 or 4 of us to play 18 holes.
While it won't replace a real live course, fun TV golf game from Hasbro is a lot of fun in its own right! My son got it for Christmas and we're still playing it daily a month later.
Setup is easy...put in the batteries and plug two cables in to your TV's composite input or VCR, just like most video games. That's all there is to it.
There are 5 different courses you can play, from the traditional "Goofy Golf" type layout with windmills and ramps to the exotic outer space course with orbiting planets, very little friction, and wandering robots.
There's an aiming wheel that fits the club head, and optical sensor in the "ball" that detects how hard you swing the club, so the putter action is quite realistic, excepting that you skim over the ball instead of hitting it. It's quite easy to master.

B.C. Builders Boulder Mountain Playset
 |
Ok, so little boys love construction play sets, and little boys also love dinosaurs, so this is perfect: a dino-construction playset! :-)
The Tyrannosaurus "crane" makes fun construction sounds as the child uses him to build (and tear down) the mountain pieces and boulders.

Kids Classic Replica Pedal Cars
 |
These are so retro-cool! These superbly-crafted 1950's era pedal cars are sure to be a hit, even with the most techno-jaded youngsters, just because of all the extra details like padded seats and functional chrome steering wheels.
They come in several versions, including a Fire Engine, Police Car, Classic '55 Convertible, and even a Model-T. I hope my son doesn't see me working on this page, he's gonna want one! :-)

This mini radio control hovercraft is amazing! It fits in the palm of your hand and races over any smooth surface with a 30 foot range using its twin engines.
I want to get one just so that I can show it to someone and say "My hovercraft is full of eels...really tiny RC eels!" :-)

MegaZooka air blaster
 |
This is one of those wacky toys that's as much fun in the back yard as it is on a Friday afternoon in your cubicle.
This "mega" sized version of the AirZooka sends a silent blast of air across a room to "puff!" someones' hair or rustle some papers. The perfect stealth gag...just try not to give yourself away by giggling too much! :-)
