Today’s toy review is one for the older children out there and those with a love for all things military or electronic! The Eyeclops Vision Infrared Stealth Goggles are night vision goggles perfect for your little soldier! The Eyeclops Night Vision goggles come from the company "Eyeclops" known for making both educational and scientific toys for kids that make learning fun but the Night Vision goggles are one of the most impressive of their products. The goggles are powered by real infra-red driven night vision technology and enable clear visibility for up to 50 feet in complete darkness! These goggles make the perfect tool for camping kids too, enabling

them to see each other in pitch blackness. These goggles are also great for hide and seek in the dark! The goggles require 4 "AA" batteries that are not included with them and the goggles measure 10"L x 12"W x 7"H. The infrared goggles are recommended for children aged 6yrs+.
You can find the Eyeclops Vision Infrared Stealth Goggles over at Amazon.com, I have yet to see these in any store other than the chain of Discovery stores that recently closed for business.

I have mentioned before that food related toys make me nervous especially in households with younger children; however, they are unavoidable with most children in the early years of school coming as tea sets with cake, plush toys or as in this case educational toys. The only advisory I will give is that if you have a household with children young enough not to know better than to eat the toy PLEASE don’t purchase this one! The Smart Snacks toys are one of my favorite food based toys because they all promote education and the hide n’ peek chocolates are no different. The Smart Snacks Hide N’ Peek Chocolates is a set of two pieced chocolates that match together

as shapes. Each chocolate comes apart and will only fit with it’s partner piece, much like a matching game or a game of memory but the great part about these chocolates is that they’re colorful as well so children can not only work on memory and matching skills but they can also learn all about colors at the same time! This set is washable and includes 12 chocolates in a heartshaped box. These chocolates are recommended for children ages 3yrs+.
You can find the Smart Snacks Hide N’ Peek Chocolates over at Kazoo Toys.

We all know how absolutely impossible it is to get children to do their chores and help out around the house and the older they get the more like pulling teeth it is. The Melissa & Doug Deluxe Magnetic Responsibility Chart is a great tool to help to get your children up and helping around the house. The Responsibility Chart relies on children’s need for positive reinforcement. The Chart comes with seven clots for responsibility goals and seven columns for each day of the week. Attached to the chart is a white board which holds all of the magnets that slot in to the chart. Responsibility magnets include simple "chores" such as remembering to say please

and thank you and more difficult chores for older children such as helping with outdoor chores. This set also includes small smilie face magnets which rate your child’s participation in the responsibilities that have been picked for the week. The Responsibility Chart is a great way to monitor allowances and individual child’s behaviour in a multi-child household. The Chart comes with a total of 134 magnets and measures 16" x 24" when the white board is opened up. This Responsibility Chart is recommended for children ages 3yrs+
You can find this Melissa & Doug Chart from Amazon.com! You may be able to locate it at smaller retail stores that carry Melissa & Doug toys; however, you have a better chance of finding it at Amazon.

and educational set comes with various sizes and shapes of blocks as well as the mirror which is used to place in front of the blocks so patterns that are created are replicated with the mirrors reflection. This set is recommended for children aged 3yrs – 8 yrs; however, it is one of those toys that is fun to tinker with no matter what your age. The blocks in this set are made from Beech wood.
