Look! It's Leo!

This is one slick motorized solar system and planetarium from Educational Insights®. Make assembling it an educational exercise. Demonstrate how the planets circle the sun. The 4" dia sun is yellow plastic, lit with a krypton bulb. The planets are colored, reasonably proportional given their actual sizes, and marked with their symbols. They ride on black metal arms that disappear in the dark. The helpful instruction manual suggests activities, and includes a heliocentric longitude chart. Use it with the degree markings on the black-plastic base to show the positions of the planets on different dates. Replace the top half of the sun with the clear dome imprinted with labeled Northern-hemisphere constellations, and project them onto the walls and ceiling of your darkened classroom. About 9" high, with Pluto extending 15" from the center, and the other planets hanging out in their respective order. Comes with an AC adapter, but not with the (4) "C" batteries it needs. For grades 3 and up, and not for kids under three years of age. (Do you want to have to tell an E.R. nurse he ate Uranus?)

Box O' Bones

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

Glow-in-the-dark plastic skeleton, about 1 ft. tall. That is the end result. What you get is a box of bones that you snap together to create the final product. Which is kind of fun. Or of course you can leave some or all of them disassembled to create a sense of havoc. We're not going to claim it is anatomically correct, or educational. But you do need to figure out that feet don't grow from shoulders and thigh bones do not connect to jaw bones. Maybe 5 minutes of fun!! And the finished product is one of our better little Halloween guys.

Cymbalic Monkey

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

You know the one-big stupid grin, chatters, jumps up and down, pounds really annoying cymbals together and won't stop…an American classic. The originals from the '50s bring $75 or so on Ebay, but you can get your own brand-new, latter-day cymbal-clanging primate in a little red hat for a fraction of that. Approx 7-1/2" tall, runs on (2) "AA" batteries (not included) with a power switch under his monkey bottom.

Half-Ounce Buckets

Half-ounce buckets with no handles. OK, medicine cups. Graduated in 1/2-tsp increments up to (3) tsps (1/2 oz) but would hold (5) tsps if you were careful not to spill. Translucent plastic, 1-1/2" tall and slightly flared to 1-7/16" dia at the top. Helpfully embossed "read label directions" and "wash after using." Would also make nice wastebaskets for contemporary dollhouses, itty-bitty Jell-O® molds, or diet cookie cutters.

Pictails®

We figure it's another case of design-by-pun: pictures with pigtails. Cute though. This 4" x 5" x 5/8" clear acrylic picture frame (it's easy to insert a 3" x 2" pic) has a 14-1/2" long, soft rubber tail with wire inside, curled like a pigtail in the package. The acrylic frame is filled with un-mixable clear and colored liquid in grape, cherry, tangerine, ocean blue and other bright colors. Preteens and teens, especially, will enjoy bending the tail into a stand for a desk or night table, winding it around a bedpost, twisting a bunch together for a group arrangement. ( A pictolabra?)
