Tyco R/C 1:6 Batmobile

Advantages: Advanced toy, develops imagination and play, and brings out the mischevious side of kids!
Disadvantages: A little expensive,

...The The Tyco N.S.E.C.T. is a definate boys toy, and frankly freaks me out, which is why a certain little someone probably likes it. Bought some time ago, it came in a broken state, however, good old Tyco, are sorting the matter out!

Advantages: Helps Improve Concentration, and general PC skills
Disadvantages: Batteries essential,

...on with it a little more by himself and to hear him giggle away when he makes something happen is very rewarding. Positives 1-Great for learning basic computer skills 2-Plugs in to the TV so no tiny screen like the laptop versions 3-Saves worry of the child accidently deleting something on the PC or clicking on some website that is inappropriate 4- He no longer even attempts to touch our PC as he has his own 5- Introduction to numercy, and phonics 6- Teaches perseverance 7- Helps improve concentration 8- Sturdy Negatives 1- Mouse can be very sensitive on some games, while not so on others 2- No adapter for the keyboard so batteries essential. I bought this from Toys R Us for 34.99 They are generally on sale for between £35-£50 so definately shop around. John Lewis also had it advertised for £35 before Christmas. Where as Ebay bids were going up... Read review
