Go Ballistic
Nothing to it with William Gurstelle's "Backyard Ballistics," a soft-cover, 169pp compendium by an engineer on constructing rockets, cannons (carbide and spud), flingers, tennis ball mortars, balloons, fire kites, and other intriguing devices, all with common household materials. The detailed text includes parts lists, illustrated instructions, photos and quite sensible and necessary safety precautions. From Chicago Review Press.

Picture-Perfect Globe
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
It's a one-foot-wide world on this 12" dia inflatable globe/beach ball and it couldn't be more accurate, since the world is depicted in genuine, if small, satellite-photo images (It IS a big blue marble!). Perfect for an eerie, after-dark game on the beach, too, because the ball lights up with an internal LED powered by the (3) button-cell batteries in it. Almost unearthly!

Timing Is Everything
Call it the no-excuses timer, with sound and light and a warning mode to alert even the most distracted. With 360° viewing, it's perfect for test day, or for the kitchen if you've learned to tune out that little "bing!" sound. Has both a standard timer and warning timer that set separately for intervals from five minutes to two hours. The 2-3/8" dome lights up green while counting down, flashes yellow when warning, and flashes red when it's time to put those #2 pencils down. Or check the cake. The sound is doorbell-dingy and adjustable for volume. Stands 4-3/4" tall in a squat lighthouse shape. You add (3) "AAA" batteries.
