Toys and Kids

Just a couple of weeks ago my teenager saw a replica of the original Barbie doll while out shopping with her mother. She came home and begged and pleaded and whined for that silly doll. She had to wait though because, like most people, we just don't have forty dollars laying around the house doing nothing. We have bills to pay and food to buy instead.
But, such is the life of a kid. They need things to play with. Whether it is an expensive toy or not, they must have toys! When i was a kid, we saw toys on television shows and did just what my daughter did. Of course, in those days, toys were rather simplistic.
Today the toys that kids want are not simple at all. They aren't all expensive, which is great considering all the fancy things they can do. Especially robot toys. I really like this toy, the WowWee Robosapien Robot with remote control:


Come on now, doesn't this look like a super neat toy that will provide your child with hours and hours of pure fun? Providing of course, that they can get it away from the grownups? LOL
Basically, this is what this toy can do: A fusion of technology and personality, the Robosapien marks a tremendous advance in remote activated robotic function. Standing over a foot tall, this completely interactive robot has the ability to walk, dance and groove, as well as pick up and throw items. This robotic wonder also delivers several combinations of strikes and chops. The fluid biomechanical motions are amazing. Kids can control all the robotic movements with the easy-to-use remote. Remote transmission is infrared which requires the controller to be in the line of sight of the Robosapien. Program up to 84 different action sequences, and utilize four program modes for advanced operations. As if that weren''t enough, the Robosapien also sports an interactive reflex system comprised of six sensors that detect obstructions.
Okay, so, now that you are hooked on the idea of toys, click on the link above and go get some great toys for your child. While you are there, pick up a toy or two for yourself, because you know your child is not going to share their toys with you :)
