Richard Mas is a toy retailer and contributing editor to the Best Selling Christmas Toys list at the The Christmas Store Online. His one suggestion to all who shop during the Christmas Holidays is to avoid the brink and mortar and Buy Christmas Gifts Online.
For your children between 3 and 6 years old, The Smart Cycle from Fisher Price makes one of the best gifts of the year.
It's such an intriguing toy as it combines education, entertainment, and exercise all in one. At first glance, you may have several questions: Is it a video game? Is it a bike? Is it an educational movie?
Actually, The Smart Cycle is all three of these in one great package. The Smart Cycle looks simply like a bicycle when you first see it. However, it is a bicycle that connects to your TV though the standard input jacks (setup is a snap!). Then, you load up the game that comes included with your Smart Cycle and your children are ready to start peddling through new and wonderful worlds.
As your kids peddle the bike, they enter new territories that appear on the television screen. Each advance forward, left, or right introduces your children to exciting adventures in which they learn about all new things...and get exercise in the process.
But the fun does not stop there. Fisher Price offers a variety of different Smart Cycle Software including Smart Cycle Dora, Smart Cycle SpongeBob, and Hotwheels. Each of these Smart Cycle Games extends the entertainment and education for your child. For example, Smart Cycle Dora gives your kids an around the world water adventure. And Smart Cycle SpongeBob allows kids to learn about the alphabet, colors, money, and sea creatures through one of their most-beloved characters--SpongBob.
While education and exercise are important, the bottom line is: Will your kids use it? I bought the Smart Cycle for my 4 year old earlier this year and he has been riding it ever since. After the first 2 months, he was enjoying it so much that we bought the other games for The Smart Cycle and each brought new adventures and added enjoyment. The entertainment factor for the Smart Cycle is big--kids love it and you'll love it for your kids.
There is no doubt--The Smart Cycle makes a Smart Gift!
