Have you watched or read the news lately. This week, all the talk is surrounding the latest toys for the holiday season. The headline from cbc.ca is "High-tech toys for tots dominate holiday season" today. The mini-compiter in a smart pen was rated the top toy by the Canadian Toy Testing Council Thursday. According to the article: "The device allows users to draw a calculator and press the handwritten buttons to complete a math calculation, or draw a set of piano keys and play and record a song."
Also unveiled, tons of smart dolls that need to have their teeth brushed and there is also a smart pony that is lifelike and responds to voice and touch.
And to get kids more active, there is a mat that encourages children to get up and exercise. They need to hop and jump on a floor mat.
Of course, these toys will mean tons of battery purchases for parents. But they also introduce children to the wonderful world of technology that much sooner. So the question is, what will kids born now be like with technology at the school-age? It is a frightful and yet fascinating question.
