Growing up, Summer time was all about seeing who was the first one to the playground and who was the last one to leave. Every spare moment was spent enjoying and exploring the great outdoors. While The Kids have a lot of indoor activities to keep them engaged, now that the weather is nice, they love to spend time outside learning about the world around them. And what better way to do that then with toys from Mastermind Toys. And it’s no wonder that Mastermind Toys has been making kids smile since 1984.

Quality Toys and Books for Kids

The Kids have been providing updates on the birds nests around our property. However, in order to not disturb the nest or upset the Mother, we’re not letting The Kids get very close. If we had these Educational Insights GeoSafari Jr. Kidnoculars, they could experience the life of a baby bird up close and without the risks. I can just see the expression of wonder on their four-year old faces.

These binoculars were designed with little kids in mind. Enlarged focus-free eyepieces increase the objects size by more than three times that of ordinary binoculars and the perfect-fit goggles with placement guide enable kids to see up close. This is really helpful because even at 4.5 years old, The Kids don’t always know what or how they’re supposed to be looking at something.

The Kids are almost at the age where they are coordinated enough to play with a toy like the Lazer Pitch. Not only that but I’m constantly encouraging them to be independent (while I cheer from the sidelines) and this product will fit in well with that philosophy. Designed for Age 5 and Up, the MaxSport-Lazer-Pitch-Baseball sells for $49.99 and is a pitching machine that shoots pitches up to 25 feet and features adjustable pitching angles and speeds.

Did you know that all of Mastermind Toys online specifications provide an area where customers can submit their product reviews? As a parent, I appreciate it when people take the time to let me know why a product was or wasn’t a good fit for their child.
