1 ESPN Better Batter Baseball Trainer
Learn to be the next A-Rod. the plate to automatically load a ball - the mechanical arm drops down, picks up a baseball, then raises right to position. Sound effects, baseball "chatter" and ESPN music make this batter better than the rest. |

2 Tornado Tee Golf
The Tornado Tee Golf set features "spinning" air action that "magically" floats the ball above the tee. Just tap the golf ball pad to float the ball and swing! The floating golf ball position is ideal for kids to hit it, and it will also offer an extra challenge, helping kids develop hand/eye coordination and motor skills. |

3 Crayola 3D Chalk
Warm colors (red, yellow) tend to move towards your eye, while cool colors (blue, green) recede. The colors are on the same plane, of course, when kids are drawing, but when you put on the special, included 3D glasses, you get the illusion of depth. This magical effect keeps kids engaged and playing, and this new set comes with two pairs of 3D glasses, and the big chalk lasts longer than smaller, chalk. |

4 Crayola Spira-Chalk Blaster
Using this new sidewalk chalk tool, kids can create big, multi-colored spiral designs. The Spira-Chalk Blaster is kid-powered and needs no batteries. Just insert a stick of sidewalk chalk into the blaster, press down to launch it into a spin, and watch as it skips across the driveway or sidewalk leaving cool, colorful spiral designs in its path. It makes different patterns every time! Kids can even play games with the blaster, guessing how far they think their chalk will travel or what shapes it might make along the way. |

5 Sky Balls
This incredible bounce feature comes from the combination of oxygen and helium inside the lightweight balls. It's great to see that such a basic toy can be such a hit, and we continually find that once kids pick them up, they can't stop bouncing them.This spring, there are new introductions, including balls in different sizes. Plus, there are accessories like a suction cup catcher and a ball and bat set for high-powered games of baseball. |

7 The Wave Board
The Wave gives you the kids the ability to perform precision 360s in small spaces, carve downhill, and even ride uphill. Riders can perform all manner of skating tricks, including manuals, board leaps, kick flips, and more. Once on the board, a rider merely twists his or her hips back and forth in an S-shaped motion to propel down the street, with no foot propulsion required. |

8 Jarts
It's the classic lawn game...without the metal spikes. Redesigned for today's kids, the new and improved rounded, plastic tip keeps gameplay safe and really makes these babies fly. Score a ringer with your lawn dart and earn 3 points. The player closest to the ring scores one point. The first player or team to score 21 points wins! This is great outdoor fun for two to four players divided into two teams. |
