WHIP'N'SKIP™ - With LED Lights by GEOSPACE INTERNATIONAL
WHIP'N'SKIP™ - With LED Lights by GEOSPACE INTERNATIONAL

Kids love to move…and what could make movement more fun than the inspiration of sparkling LED lights powered by kids’ own movement?!  Our new WHIP’N’SKIP is a modern update on a very popular, classic toy from the 90’s.  Though the basic movement is easy to learn, it’s a challenge to keep it going, a feat of balance, endurance, and coordination.  To play, simply attach the tether to one leg and begin rolling the disc ball on the ground in a circular pattern around your body.  With each revolution, your other leg must hop or skip over the tether.  Kids get their competitive juices flowing to see who can skip the longest, and record the highest score on the ball’s built-in counter, while being mesmerized by the motion-activated LED lights (especially in the dark).  It’s a great way to build coordination, balancing skills, and burn off energy so kids don’t even realize they’re getting an invigorating workout.  Requires 3 x AG13 batteries.  Ages 8 & Up. 12/27/2013 [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]

CAT Multi Terrain Loader by BRUDER TOYS AMERICA INC.

The CATERPILLAR Multi terrain loader is truly multi-functional. Powerful, flexible and mobile: it is the number one choice for any small area. The functions of the CAT Multi terrain loader are comparable to those of the CATERPILLAR compact loader, but the Multi terrain loader has a rubber-chain drive, creating a much lower ground pressure. It is great fun seeing how precisely the chains work while you move the CAT Multi terrain loader over all types of surface, particularly when playing. The movable arm of the CAT Multi terrain loader can be locked in many positions and reach particularly high thanks to its special construction. An adaptor for at-tachments already used on several BRUDER vehicles allows the CATERPILLAR Multi terrain loader and its attached equipment to master all types of work in no time.
