Kids Can Get Techy with Silverlit
S
ilverlit’s Nano Falcon holds the Guinness World Record title for the Smallest R/C Helicopter. With a size of 65mm and weight of just 11 grams, this three-channel indoor helicopter flies up and down, forward and backward, and left and right. A built-in gyro stabilizer makes flying easy. A precise variable speed rotor delivers excellent flying control. The helicopter features a pre-selected tri-band system and a slim design for the transmitter. Also from Silverlit is i-Fido, an interactive pet for i-Devices. Equipped with a high-end Bluetooth speaker and interactive features, i-Fido streams kids’ favorite tunes while the multi-color LED lights flash to the beat. A free app can be downloaded for more interactive fun. iFido responds if kids pet him or tap his paws and nose. If they put on his headphones, he dances to the music. When i-Fido has the microphone, he becomes a voice changer. i-Fido

Squashed Keeps Players on Their Toes
S
quashed, from PlaSmart, is a 3-D board game of strategy and chance. Two to four players ages 6 and up eliminate other players by squashing one pawn at a time—or they can flip the cube for a total wipeout—but players must be careful not to squash their own pawns. The player with the last pawn on the Squashed cube wins.
