Toys and technology have always worked together. Toys get more interesting as technology moves forward. This has been true for a long time and is true today, but modern toys have taken giant steps thanks to technology. The following are some of the most exciting toys available that kids can enjoy.
Flying the Friendly Toy
Some people may remember those old RC helicopter toys that allowed you to control a flying toy. The range was not that great; the capabilities for these toys were limited but they were quite fun. Well, today’s generation of children gets to play with better toys. These are called aerial drones, and they offer a range of mobility that RC helicopters could only dream of. You can fly these gadgets further than ever before, and they usually come with video so you can see what this toy is seeing.
A Droid to Help Kids Code
Digital coding is the language of tomorrow in most business settings. It is important that kids learn how to code as early as possible, and there are many toys out there that utilize smart technology to help kids learn. One of the best examples is the Star Wars Droid Inventor Kit, which allows kids to build their very own functioning R2D2. The child is able to enter code into the robot once the toy is built. These codes allow the toy to perform the tasks that your child programs it to do, which can be done using the app the toy comes with. A personal droid is a great toy for parents who want their kids to have fun and learn at the same time.
AR Fighting Toys
Most kids love toys that can be pitted against each other, and this particular toy can do just that. There are a number of great AR or augmented reality robots that you can purchase. These smart toys give kids the opportunity to get familiar with AR toys and get excited about the possibilities that robotics presents, which could be a good thing for a kid to get passionate about. One of the best examples of this type of toy is the Mekamon AR fighting robot, but there are others options out there for you to consider.
The Interactive Baby Doll
Another interesting and fun toy to consider is Luvabella Interactive Baby Doll. This particular toy can laugh if your child tickles her and look satisfied when she is fed. The toy learns as your child plays with her, making it a smart toy to play with as they get to know each other. The toy can learn more than 100 words and phrases, which can help a child develop his or her language skills. Keep in mind that the toy is quite life-like, making it much more exciting to play with. This particular toy is quite affordable, and most parents will appreciate the benefits it offers.
The Superhero of Tomorrow
Sphero introduced a robotic Spider-Man not too long ago, and it is an exciting toy. It can tell all sorts of jokes and even tell your kid a few stories from his adventures. Of course, the toy is motion-activated and can easily recognize speech while responding to it. Perhaps one of the most interesting things about this robotic wall-crawler is that it can interact with the Spider-Man cartoon that shows up on Disney XD. Cardboard cutouts of your kids favorite superheroes and movie characters go along great with the robots, dolls, toys, and games from whichever character is your child’s favorite hero of the moment.
These are just some cool toys that your kids are going to love if you purchase them. They are not only fun but very educational for a number of reasons. Be sure to talk to a toy expert to see if there are other toys that he or she recommends if none of these tickle your fancy.
