Comfy’s educational and entertaining platform opens up a whole new world of interactive experiences. The unique system with its large colorful buttons and friendly animated characters inspires and motivates effective learning, and the specially designed software offers various levels of developmental learning that grows with the child, who will continuously enjoy and discover exciting and challenging activities.

The Easy PC System has been designed with toddlers in mind, and fits their motor and cognitive skills.

I recently got to borrow some Air Drives safe headphones for kids. They are incredibly lightweight headphones which hook over your child’s ears. They are “open” headphones as opposed to “closed” which means that you child will also be able to hear what is going on around them. Both the earpieces as well as the cord feel sturdy, and I doubt your kids will be able to break them any time soon. The plug is very slim so, for example, it has no problem connecting to my iPhone.

Traditional headphones can be fine for adults, but children are more likely to damage their hearing by turning the volume up too high. The earpieces are adjustable — think Gumby — and do not go inside the ear. Air Drives headphones are designed to keep the volume at a safe level and away from direct contact with the ear.

I tried them on my 3, 5, and 5 ¾ year old boys and for each, their first reaction was giggles. (The picture is of my 3-year-old, and he’s a pretty small guy.) It was fun for them not to have their head smashed by huge, heavy headphones. There was no “plug” that they had to make sure didn’t fall out of their ear. They could even lie with their ear on a pillow and feel comfortable. I was able to have a conversation with them while they listened to music (Talking Heads, if you must know), and I liked not having them cut off from the world by their headphones.

These would be a great gift for a child you know is getting a game system, iPod, computer, or CD player this year. The kid will love the gift, and the parents will appreciate that these headphones help avoid hearing damage in their children.

Where to buy

Air Drives are available direct from AirDrives.com as well as at Amazon for $70. A slick version for adults is available as well.

Are you looking for something special and fantastic for your child’s next birthday party? Here’s something cool that is perfect for those kids whose birthdays are in the cold part of the year. My three kids all have winter birthdays, and coming up with something interesting when you can’t take the rugrats outside can be a challenge.

How about a movie birthday party?

Throw a sheet on the wall and hook a portable projector up to your computer or DVD player and you’ve got your own movie theater!

Projector123.com rents these projectors and it couldn’t be simpler. You just make your reservation online, they ship the projector to you the day before you need it, and then you give it to the FedEx guy the day after your party. Easy peasy.

But wait, you say, you also want some cool movies to show? No problem. How about “Meet the Robinsons” — released on DVD October 23 — it would be a bit party hit.

I’ll also throw in “Shrek 3.” It comes out on DVD November 13 and would be a hilarious addition to your party.

But what to do after the kids have eaten a pile of cake and ice cream as big as their head? Give them something new and fun to play with, of course.

This fun set of 24 Gorilla Blocks will let the kids get their ya-yas out while not causing tears from clonked heads or broken furniture.

And if all that doesn’t make for a great party, I’ll eat the Gorilla Blocks!

What. You want more? OK, how about lots of winners!

First prize:

• Weekend projector rental
• 24 piece set of Gorilla Blocks
• Meet the Robinsons DVD
• Shrek 3 DVD

Second prize:

• 24 piece set of Gorilla Blocks
• Meet the Robinsons DVD
• Shrek 3 DVD

Third prize:

• Meet the Robinsons DVD
• Shrek 3 DVD

Awe-some, no?

Where to buy

Do you just want to get the loot right now instead of waiting until the end of the contest? I understand.

Projector123.com will be more than happy to rent you a projector for your party. Head on over and see how easy it is to get started.

You can find Meet the Robinsons at Amazon for $17, and they also have Shrek 3 for just $16.

Foamy, kid-friendly Gorilla Blocks from JAKKS Pacific are available at Amazon. Grab a bunch of sets and build yourself a village.
