Fisher-Price Smart Cycle

by

Fisher-Price Smart CycleThis was on my younger children’s christmas lists this past year, course they didn’t get it, we were in hotels for two months there would’ve been no room. Did any of you pick this up?

If you are worried about your child not exercising while he is playing video games. That’s right, plug this little Fisher-Price Smart Cycle
into your tv and let them cycle into a whole new world. The handles move from left to right, making steering a cinch for your little man and the pedals move as well. Collect the numbers and letters to pass the level. Don’t worry, if your child gets tired he can stop pedaling and play with the joystick below the steering wheel.

The only problem I see with this is the weight, to move this from one room to another could become quite the chore. Another thing is when the cycle is turned off it forgets what your child has done, which could mean frustration to a child that has spent a lot of time to pass a level. It’s a great way to get your child to come out of their shell and want to learn by having a bit of fun. Who said education had to be boring?

Tons of new software is coming out for the Fisher-Price Smart Cycle, which means when your child actually completes the game or gets bored of the same one (or you do), they can quickly be replaced.
