Sign In/Up! (It's Worth It!)
Doodle In 3-D
Think of it as a shortcut to learning perspective. This clever 50-sheet pad of white, 7" x 4-1/2" paper has a fine red and blue grid pattern that shows your drawing and doodling in 3-D when you wear the included 3-D glasses. It's our candidate for the why-didn't-I-think-of-that award this year.

Intergalactic Pendant
Jewelry for the future, or to hypnotize cats. This 2-3/4" dia x 15/16" thick chromed plastic pendant has an array of blue, green and red LEDs inside that bounce off a back mirror and an front-surface mirror in (6) different deep-infinity, mesmerizing patterns, (1) of which will probably let you go back in time if used right. We're thinking Starship costumes. Has a 13" neck strap and includes (3) button-cell batteries.

Rainbow Glasses
Neon strip cardboard spectacles with diffraction gratings as the lenses. You can see the regular world, but all light sources and bright objects appear in multiple rainbow hued images. The effect is a little as though the whole world were a giant hologram. Great stocking stuffer or birthday party item for grade school ages.

Optic One
A "One gizmo does all" marvel. It really works as a binocular, magnifier/linen tester, and has a signaling mirror, and compass all in a roughly 1-1/2" sq x 3-3/4" long package. The bino eyepieces and objectives fold against the body with the objectives doubling as magnifiers when used alone. The signaling mirror makes a good examining table for bugs and seeds etc and is conveniently located under one of the lenses. It should make a good "going off to camp" gift!

Trick Pictures
A schizophrenic camera! The Split Cam" combines (2) photos, as you take them, and creates a single picture. Horizontally, it can meld one person's top half with another person's bottom half. It can put your pit bull's head on your boss's shoulders. Split vertically, one person can be on both the left and right sides, particularly helpful for photographers covering political candidates. Standard 200 or higher film, standard developing, 4" x 6" prints.

Brain Benders
A box of illusions: make big objects look small, and small objects look big; change black and white into color; turn drawings into old-style movies - just for starters. You get a motorized zoetrope/spinner with discs and strips, and a really amazing "altered perspective chamber," along with directions for a dozen optical activities. It's really mind-bending - but don't forget to buy (2) "AA" batteries for the zoetrope. Spinning it by hand just doesn't work as well! For ages 8 to adult.
