Kids are never great at keeping time and staying on track with tasks at hand, whether it’s practicing a musical instrument or cleaning their room before dinner it is hard enough to get children to perform these tasks let alone perform them on time! The Time Tracker by Learning Resources allows your child to keep track of time on their own with a unique lighted electronic timer! This timer has lighted sections on it which alert children to how much time is left on the timer. Each section (red, yellow and green) have six sound effects available that can be programmed to each section to warn children when time is running out! This is the ideal tool

for teaching children all about time management! The timer has 180 degree viewing, an easy to read LCD display, volume control, and a pause feature. This timer is not only great for children of all ages but it is also great for children with hearing or sight difficulties due to the light and sound features! The timer requires 4 AA batteries which are not included and measures 9" tall, it is recommended for children from 3yrs up!
You can find the Learning Resources – Time Tracker over at Amazon.com. I have not been able to locate this one in local retail stores as of yet!

The ‘Oh The "Wondrous" Places You’ll Go!’ Travel Card Game by The Wonder Forge is a large deck of cards, each card features a wondrous place that you can visit depicted with amazing photography, unbelievable facts about the destination, some nifty history facts and some trivia to tickle your brain! Each card features a different place and there are 51 1/2 adventurous cards to choose from with 156 travel trivia questions! These cards make the perfect game to play in the car when you’re embarking on one of those long and tedious road trips, or they simply make for good fun

on a rainy dismal day! The cards come in an easy to carry box which makes them perfect for car travel especially since there are no small pieces to lose! The best part about this game is that it allows both parents and children to learn more about new places together! This game is recommended for children ages 8yrs+ because it is a more grown up type of game and younger children will not enjoy the challenge of learning about new places quite as much!
You can find the Oh The "Wondrous" Places You’ll Go! Travel Card Game over at Amazon.com. I have not seen these in retail stores anywhere.

Families who live with or work with autistic children understand just how difficult it is to find tools that are appropriate for their children to learn because where as certain tools and methods work well for most children, children with autism have difficulties not just learning information but in the methods that information is presented. The Transporters DVD pack was released in the United States this week and has already proven to be a hit after research in Great Britain. These wonderful DVD sets are aimed specifically at teaching autistic children how to identify emotion and studies have shown that only 15 minutes a day of the Transporters dvd’s

You may have noticed my affinity for globes and for geography in general when it comes to childrens toys and there is very good reason for that: growing up I was fortunate enough to travel a lot; however, I know many families especially being so far from Europe over in the US, are not fortunate enough to be able to afford to show their children the world. While many families may not be able to afford to share the world with their children visually they have plenty of chances to do it through other means and globes are one great way! Globes not only teach about other countries that your child may not get to see first hand but they also help your child in their future

endeavors by providing a stable knowledge of geography! The Vtech Fly and Learn Globe, unlike other globe’s I’ve featured in the past is designed for younger children (ages 3yrs+) and teaches your child all about geography, places, world wonders, people, languages and music with a moving airplane piece and a friendly pilot!
You can find the Vtech Fly and Learn Globe over at Amazon.com. You will be able to find this one in local retail stores as well!
