As most of you know I try to stay away from big brand names when I scout out cool toys for kids; however, there are occasions when the value of a toy far outweighs the fact that it’s a big brand name toy and such is the case with the Fisher Price Fun 2 Learn Computer Cool School. This amazing set caught my eye initially when I saw it on Amazon for almost half price! This set comes with a kid friendly keyboard, writing tablet, stylus pen, and software which will help your preschoolers as well as your learning disabled children learn skills they need for school! Each software that comes with and can be purchased for this system has five different learning centers and

one field trip activity. Learning centers include reading, writing, math, art / music and science. Each software allows children to print out reward certificates and supplemental worksheet activities. This system is fast and easy to hook up to your home PC, using a USB cable and the games are easy to use with simple walk through instructions by friendly cartoon characters. The Fisher Price Fun 2 Learn Computer Cool School is recommended for children ages 3yrs+.
You can find the Fisher Price Fun 2 Learn Computer Cool School over at Amazon.com for almost half of it’s original price or you can check your local Target store; however, keep in mind that this system costs you almost $20 extra at Target!

Today’s featured toy is a blast from the past for all of us and our parents as well. The ABC Block Cart has been a toy that has been featured in many households over goodness knows how long. The ABC Block Cart has been such a popular toy for such a long time because of the learning aspect as well as the appeal of a building toy to children combined with a pull cart! The ABC Block Cart by Melissa and Doug revisits this age old toy with a sturdy cart filled with 30 brightly colored wooden blocks painted with letters, pictures and numbers! The wooden blocks are solid wood, no hollow blocks as you often find in remakes of this classic toy! The blocks in

this set are chunky enough to allow little hands to get a good grip on them for spelling games or for building games! The ABC Block Cart is recommended for children ages 2yrs+. This set should be used with supervision; however, due to the pull cord on the wagon. While the pull cord is short enough that children have to bend down to pull it, it is still best used by younger aged children with supervision or you could simply cut the cord and allow children to use the cart as a push cart!
You can find the Melissa and Doug ABC Block Cart over at Amazon.com or keep your eye out for Melissa and Doug products at your local retail stores!

Today I break from the usual of bringing you unusual and new toys to bring something that’s been around for a little while but continues to amaze me. The Fisher-Price Smart Cycle is an amazing video gaming unit for younger children consisting of a "smart cycle" that hooks up to your television and uses unique software and games to teach your children more about the world around them as well as to give your child more exercise. The reason I absolutely love this toy is because it gets kids active instead of sitting them down in front of a gaming unit. The smart cycle system allows you child to customize their own bike as well as explore

different "themes". Different games for the Smart Cycle incorporate popular characters such as Sponge Bob and Dora the explorer to teach concepts such as letters, numbers, colors and shapes. The cycle comes with Learning Journey software; however, character based games are sold seperately for about $20 each. The Smart Cycle is recommended for children aged 3-6yrs and measures 9" x 16.9" x 35" and weighs 19.9lbs.
Because the Smart Cycle is made by Fisher Price you will be able to find it just about anywhere you go looking for it, Amazon and Walmart carry the Smart Cycle for $86.88, Target tacks on an extra $13.
