nhangze says "Study ant lives, one of the oldest living creature on Earth" about Fascinations AntWorks

I bought AntWorks for my kids and their deep interest in it really surprised me. I thought it's just for kids: seeking some black ants and put them into the gel container then watching how they create channels. Amazingly I now find myself so attracted to it too. They seem to burrow channels by instint, enter a new world and begin their work soon after. I keep wondering what drives them to burrow sedulously like that. The gel is translucent so it's very clear to see the detail with a magnifying glass. It comes with a red LED illuminator (blue and green are available) so the effect is awesome at night on a nightstand. There's no need for food or water at all as the gel already contains what they need to survive. They said that you can reuse it many times ( turn the Antworks to the initial condition) by putting it in the microwave a couple of minutes, but I haven't tried it out. It's over two months now and the ants are still going on well with their job. Take a tour at innovatoys.com and......

nhangze says "Fan and thermometer - 2 in 1" about FanSee

I ran across FanSee and found it handy and amazing. It cools you off and creates a floating temperature display across its spinning blades via red LEDs. I myself checked it for accuracy and there's nearly no difference between the degrees displayed on a thermometer and that on the fan. They say there's a temperature gauge located on the fan blade so we can count on what shows up. The LED effect also makes it visible in dark. I put FanSee on my desk and it doesn't take up much room. I've heard about another kind displaying time or even your name...but haven't checked it out. And I like the slogan for it: "See the heat, feel the cool"...You can buy one at www.innovatoys.com...

nhangze says "cool and intriguing" about innovatoys

I recommend this site for those who have a common shopping habit with me. I'd like to collect innovative, fancy or magic stuffs and innovatoys.com really appeals to me. You can find there a flying alarm clock (sure to wake you up each morning by flying around your bed, making an annoying noise), an EatSmart Nutrition Scale (tells you nutritional values for any food you put on it), a Dinosaur plant (dates back to the prehistoric days of the dinosaur), Levitron collection (a kind of anti-gravity top levitating in the mid air - cool and intriguing) and so on. Some are just for fun, some are practical and useful and even the kids can find educational toys or stuffs (like World Alike to study the biology of plants and insects). No complaint about the service. I myself purchased several gadgets there and quite satisfied with the products and services. Still on the way looking for something new and fun, hope the items will be updated regularly.
