The toys featured on this website are primarily aimed at the children's market (though
there are a few for the grown ups too!) They're not just about fun any more, although that
will always be the main purpose of any toy, but they can help with many aspects of a child's
development, motor skills, use of vocabulary etc.
A good example is the Noddy™ Computer which helps develop concentration, reading, logical
reasoning and even an ear for music.
Toys for older children and adults include the RC UFO, Aerojex RC Plane and Gupi the robotic guinea pig.
