Hialeah At Home

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

Ten furlongs are condensed to (7) inches, with very small horses, in the Desktop Derby, a 6-horse straight track that lets you win money while you teach the children the evils of pari-mutuel betting. The electric track pulsates and moves the nags along at a pace of about 45 seconds per race, with heart-stopping lead changes. The best part is that they're un-handicapable: a different horse, in a different lane, seems to win every time. Measures 9-7/8" x 3-1/2" x 2" high and runs off (2) "AA" batteries, included. (Stable the horses in the base between races.)

Build a Trojan rabbit until your brain hurts unless someone changes the rules and the Spanish Inquisition shows up unexpectedly while you're saving dead parrots. You get a deck of (100) cards and instructions. You may never play gin rummy again.

Dominettes

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

Itty-bitty dominos, not short, bossy women. Just the thing for traveling fun, and small enough to use on an airplane tray table, which is available for dominos now, since they're not going to serve you any food on it. This standard 28-piece game set (and you'll get 4 sets) has plastic dominos measuring 1" x 1/2" x 1/8" thick, in a plastic pouch with a weird Jolly-Roger head, and no, we don't know why.

Non-Monotonous Monopoly

Frankly, we're bored with the Community Chest and we've never liked Ventnor Avenue. For a nice change of pace try one of these non-monotonous Monopoly games, licensed from the folks who own the original. You pick Dinosaur Monopoly, where you take a chance on your excavation collapsing but where the rent on a pteranodon is just $8 a month, or the Night Sky Monopoly where Earth is, surprisingly, the new Park Place and where it can cost you an astronomical $100 if you leave your telescope out in the rain. Tokens are appropriate to each game, but you still pass go and you can still go to jail. Two to six players, ages 8 to adult.

Spin Doctoring

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

The 3/4" dia x 2-1/8" long Read Spin™ game comes on a small key ring, and makes those long waits interesting. Spin the sprockets (read "wheels") to make words, then switch their order easily and start again. It has (2) full alphabets plus extras, and directions for (6) games. The larger 1-1/2" dia Word Spin™ game that works in the same way comes in its own drawstring bag. Play any of (6) games with it, instructions included.
