This 3" long gray plastic hook fits the top rail of a whiteboard and hold charts, graphs, notes, whatever, in a swiveling toothed grip. There's a second hook on the front of the top clip. We're sure there are thousands of other uses, we just haven't thought of them yet. Watch this space

Mega-cool toy air cannon. Birthdays will never be the same! The instructions on the AirZooka" say it blasts a gust (ball?) of air up to 20 feet but we blew out a candle at 30 feet, and it only took us three tries. (And you can hear the near-misses as they blow past--which is the mega-cool part.) Plastic, 11" dia x 10 1/2" deep, like a bucket with a pistol grip and a fold-down sight. The (3) segments unscrew and collapse for storage between birthdays. We'll pick fluorescent blue, green, magenta or orange, and you'll need two if you want to have air wars.

Way inside? Try our human X-rays. These are from Roylco® and are very useful for biology teachers, but with lots of other applications. Make a very easy oversized jigsaw puzzle or, with some super glue, a great shower curtain. But the real possibilities are for artists and designers: fold ’em into lampshades, blow them up or shrink them on a copier, or scan them and have fun in Photoshop™. You get the human skeletal system, a complete skeleton when assembled, in (18) sheets of various sizes, reprinted on transparencies which work with overhead projectors. Info sheets in English and French.

The manufacturer calls it the Thunder Tube". We call it indispensable for the amateur Foley operator. It's a 7" long x 2-1/2" dia PVC tube with a resonant head at one end attached to a 17" long x 3/16" dia extension spring. Shake it, scrape it, wiggle it, use your palm to muffle it and you generate creaks, deep warbles, rumbles, weird heterodyne-ish gong effects, wa-wa's, rude noises, and, yes, realistic thunder. A perfect musical companion to your cuica and rain stick--and good, clean fun around the house. Don't make a sound-track without it.

Wire glue-the solution when you can't find the soldering iron, don't want to bother, are out in the woods, don't quite trust a fifth-grader with a hot gun, can't reach the connection with both hands, whatever. This stuff conducts low voltage AC and DC circuits in a permanent bond and is easy to use. Our high-tech support group suggests that a toothpick is a good way to apply it. Cures overnight. Our each is a 0.3 oz/9ml jar.

Straight from the hand of Nature, and Scott Resources, comes this boxed collection of (15) 1" to 1-1/2" fluorescent mineral specimens, such as hackmanite, turritella agate, aragonite, travertine, willemite, resinous coal, selenite gypsum, fluorite, calcite, scapolite var. Wernerite and fossil algae. All are very interesting, and a few colors really pop under ordinary blacklight -- but we have to admit that today's fluorescent paints and laser shows have spoiled us for the more subtle glow of a rock. Buy these for their educational value, not their dramatic display.
