Cyber Clean

Available from: Firebox – Cyber Clean – Price: £7.95

Theres always something fun about playing with slime! Especially when you have a good (and “sensible” excuse) for doing so! Yes, you can sit there and play to your hearts content, all in the name of hygiene (and who can argue with that?).

So, how can slime be hygienic? This isn’t just any old slime, it’s Cyber Clean! – saving you from the perils of the millions of germs and bacteria which lurk in the crevices of your keyboard and other electronic devices, just waiting to strike you down at any moment! (ok, maybe a slight exaggeration there, but you get the picture)

So what exactly is Cyber Clean? It’s actually an incredibly simple idea – take a pot of silly putty / slime that kids love to play with, and add an anti bacterial property. Because its slightly sticky, and extremely squishy, it’s great for cleaning out the dirt and dust that accumulates in your keyboard over time (which creates the bacteria equivalent of the Playboy mansion!). Simply mash the slime against your keyboard, and then peel it off, pulling the dirt with it – much better than air dusters which just blow the dust into the air, ready to settle on your keyboard again! According to micro bacterial tests, it can kill up to 80% of bacteria, making your keyboard much cleaner. It’s also great for sanitizing remote controls, ipods, mobile phones etc.

Cyber Clean is reusable, and changes colour over time as it absorbs more dirt – giving you a handy guide as to when it needs replacing. For the enviromentalists out there it’s non toxic (unless you’re bacteria), and it’s biodegradable so you can dispose of it with a clear conscience.

If you’re anything like me, then you hate getting up in the morning and manage to hit the alarm clocks snooze button in your sleep, meaning when you do wake up you’re in a mad rush to get to work!

Clocky is the answer! Clocky is the alarm clock thats impossible to ignore, as once the alarm goes off it scoots off to find a place to hide, whirring it’s way round your bedroom. In order to turn the alarm off, you have no choice but to get out of bed and chase it round the room, and although it sounds annoying, it’s actually incredibly effective at getting you up.

If you do get fed up with chasing it round, you can disable the wheels so that Clocky functions as a normal alarm clock, but that does kind of defeat the point a bit.  The Clocky also has an adustable snooze timer, although once you’ve got out of bed to chase after it once, it’s unlikely you’ll go back to sleep again.

Clocky is available in 2 colours, Almond and Aqua (that’s Cream & Blue for us commoners!).

So let Clocky wake you up in the mornings and you’ll never be late again!

Available from: I Want One of Those - Remote Control Dragonfly – Price: £24.99

The Flytech Dragonfly is predicted by the Toy Retailers Association to be one of this Christmas’s top toys, and it’s not hard to see why!

The Remote Control Dragonfly comes comes with a 2 channel controller, so you can fly the Dragonfly left, right, up and down. It also has different frequency modes, so you can have more than one dragonfly flying about at the same time. The dragon fly is powered from a base unit, which requires 6 AA batteries, so you can charge it up for a flight where ever you are!

The RC Dragonfly is extremely unusual, as it mimics the way real insects fly, flapping its wings and can take off from any smooth surface, and is able to soar, dive bomb, and glide silently for soft landings. Able to manoeuvre in tight spaces, it can be flown indoors quite happily, flying and soaring round the room. With glowing LED eyes that act as status indicators for the DragonFly.

In scientific terms, the Flytech Dragonfly is one of the worlds first commerical radio controlled Ornithopter! This basically means that it flys by flapping its wings, rather than through the use of propellors.

The video below is the Showreel for the Flytech Radio Control Dragonfly from its manufacturer Wow wee (who also created the RoboSapien), and pretty impressive it is too! Receiving rave reviews in a number of publications, the Remote Control Dragonfly is a lot of fun, and is sure to be a huge hit not just this Christmas, but all year round!
