It even has a convenient carry case. Click below to listen to me discuss this set with Magic 106.5 FM‘s Jack Logar, and see my full review.

You may remember Spinjas, this is a similar concept, but honestly, a bit easier to use than Spinjas, and better for younger kids.
But as you can see in the video, kids and grown ups can enjoy this set. Be sure to check out all the other Battlers you can mix and match with. Available in stores, and online at MegaBloks.com

We got to play with MegaBloks STREETZ line City Pursuit. The Helicopter that activates the SWAT truck was pretty sweet. Check out our quick review above. You can buy additional sets and build on to make an even larger city. Check out STREETZ web page on Megabloks.com for pricing and more info, and stay tuned for more segments of our video gift guide.

If Your Kid Eats This Book, Everything Will Still Be Okay: How to Know if Your Child’s Injury or Illness Is Really an Emergency
My wife and I have spent a few hours at the Emergency room over fevers and sprains over the last two years. Some were indeed serious, some were nothing more than time and money drains. (Thanks for waiting in our room surrounded by sick people for 5 hours, that’ll be $200 please)
Anyway, I will be picking up this book soon. Looks helpful. This may also be a good present for the newly expecting?

[singlepic id=22 w=150 h=113 float=right]We really got a kick out of Cadaco’s Enviroblox at Toy Fair. Now we got the chance to play with some. We gave a set to a 3 year old and his dad to play with, and I attempted some horror movie special effects with another. We’ve got a lot of pics and a cool video of a melting face!
