These richly colored plastic zippers in synthetic cloth, 21" x 1-1/4", might be sewn into pillows or into slinky, hip-hugging dresses. We have pink, black, maroon, navy, midnight, green, and ivory colored zippers-we'll give you two of our favorite colors in every pair you buy.

Triops: way cooler, bigger and more active than sea monkeys. They're dinosaur shrimp, leftovers from some 200 million years ago. Don't eat them; just grow them and enjoy this bizarre & ancient display of nature! You get a kidney-shaped tank 2-3/8" tall x 8-1/2"x 5-3/4", a very informative instruction booklet, and a packet full of triops eggs and food. Add the eggs to water and watch them go; they'll hatch in a day and reach 1" to 2" or more in a few weeks. Really easy to do, and really cool too.

Well, a pair, but that's a lot in the tank biz. This very cool kit has translucent green plastic frames, pre-wired circuit boards and motor harnesses, and the result, despite the kit's misleading Titan Tank name, is TWO 5" square x 3" tall wireless remote-control tanks (with separate controllers) that fire invisible infrared bullets at each other, and reverse direction when hit. Plus, they light up and make tank noises. Each controller has (4) channels, so if you buy (2) sets of (2), everybody can play. Each tank will take (8) "AA" batteries that you'll supply, but remember that they light up and shoot rays and make noise and move around, so you're getting a lot of bang for your battery. Includes a 15pp manual and circuit boards that are already assembled, so anyone with a steady hand from, say, a nine-year-old to a WWII tank commander, should be able to assemble them.

This staggeringly vivid night-sky projector features green, laser-beamed moving stars and cloud cover and, according to Paul (our in-house astro-galactic display maven), "adjustable-intensity nebula." If that means you can lie supine and happily stare at it for a few hours, we agree, particularly if you cue up the Dark Side of the Moon album at the same time. Or skip the Pink Floyd, and use it to lull the children to sleep. Not an astronomically accurate sky, of course, but you're definitely not going to care. The unit is approx 11" tall on a 9-1/2" x 8-3/8" oval base and plugs in via a wall adapter. The manufacturer suggests a maximum 4-hour duty cycle, white or light walls and a very dark room. Has mounting slots on the base.
