There is untold value in a globe, especially when you’re trying to educate a child on different continents and countries located around the earth. The Celestial Globe takes things another step further, featuring up to 88 different constellations in detail, and more than a thousand stars that are naked to the human eye in addition to other deep-space structures such as the Milky Way. These outer celestial features have been silk-screened onto an acrylic surface, letting you view the earth as a blue sphere located within instead. The $425 price tag is pretty steep though, but then again education never came cheap.

Wii accessories are getting as common as the games people play. Some are even kicking up the imagination quotient a notch to give players not only a physical experience – such as for sports video games – but also a fantasy experience. Witness the Wii Hero Pack by Camy International.

Though some will enjoy the inevitable Zelda gaming fantasies, why stop there? Imagine pulling the sword of Gryffindor from the sorting hat in the first Harry Potter video game, or wielding the sword and shield a digital Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe? Any video game that has a sword and shield and runs on Wii will enjoy the added dimension of hacking and slashing with hilt and blade, even if it’s much shorter and made of foam.

Wondering just what you can get for your toddler that he already doesn’t own? Perhaps the Ripped Pants! SpongeBob will fit the bill, as this toy not only sings, he dances a cute little number and spews out more than 20 hysterical phrases. In addition, he will even bend over to rip his pants just like how he does it in the cartoon. His pants-ripping antics are powered by a quartet of AA batteries, so I suggest you pick up rechargeables if you haven’t done so already.

This is cool, I’ve just got back from a 2 week vacation to find a parcel from gadget shop Red 5 containing the exceedingly cool cult money box, the Money Monster.

My ten year old daughter has taken something of a shine to him and wrote this totally independent review:

This cool new money box aka the Money monster is fun and funny with moving eye and ears plus the eye flashes in various different colors such as: blue, red and purple. He says many different phrases and songs for instance: “OI, YOU, FEED ME MONEY!” , “Money, money, money, in my tummy, la la la la la!” ,”BUUUUUURP!” and loads

While no parent wants to deliberately harm their child, dozens of children in the US die each yet in a thoroughly preventable error, where the absent-minded parent will leave the child in a vehicle as they head off to perform their chores. The insides of a vehicle heats up extremely fast, and is fatal if a child is left all alone strapped in the seat behind.

I still don’t get the idea of a traditional piggy bank where you need a hammer to smash its porcelain body to bits and pieces, suffering the same fate as Humpty Dumpty when he toppled over the wall. The Money Hammer Bank is another variation and holds at most, a few dollars. This certainly doesn’t make any financial sense considering the Money Hammer Bank itself retails for a whopping $60. I suspect that dollar bills would fare better than coins with this, but then the spirit would be missing if it wasn’t filled up with coins.
