Discovery Store - Great Toys for Tweens and Kids of All Ages

by Susan Gunelius on August 30th, 2008

To wrap up Tween Week on PlayLibrary, I’m suggesting an entire store filled with great products for tweens.  Actually, there are great toys, games and products for kids (and adults) of all ages at this store, but since it’s Tween Week, I’ll focus on products for tweens.

I’m talking about the Discovery Channel Store.  Visit the Discovery Online Toy Store, and you’ll find so many ideas for educational and fun toys, games and products for tweens!  Here are a few ideas:

Cube World

With Cube World, you can create your own interactive world of stick characters.  Each set costs $29.95 and includes 2 cubes.  You can connect up to 16 cubes to create an entire world.  Four characters, Handy, Dusty, Mic and Hans, move around the cubes and interact with each other.  Motion sensors allow you to interact with the characters, too.  You can play with them, pester them or shake the cubes and see how the characters react.  Tween boys would love this product!

Sparkle Greeting Card Kit

Tween girls love to write notes to their friends, and the Sparkle Greeting Card Kit will help them create the coolest notes!  The kit includes a 64-page book that shows you how to create more than 50 great cards as well as tons of glitter. sparkles, paper, rhinestones, ribbon, stickers and more!  At just $19.95, this looks like a great activity for tween girls to do by themselves or with friends!

Great States Game

The Great States Game looks like an educational and fun board game for tween boys and tween girls.  It includes 400 questions that teach states, capitals, landmarks and more in a fun game.  This game retails for $19.95 and is a winner of the Parents’ Choice Award and the Oppenheim Best Toy Award.  It is for kids ages 7 and up, but for younger kids, there is a Great States Junior Game

What do you think?  What’s your tween’s favorite educational game or product?
