Don't worry anymore!

Twilight Turtle transforms an infant or toddlers room into a magical star filled night sky which comforts the child to sleep. Twilight Turtle is much more than a nightlight that helps ease the children's fear of the dark however, this interactive and educational toy projects 8 actual star constellations (such as The Big Dipper) onto bedroom ceiling and walls in your choice of three nurturing colors. Parents can sit with their children and identify these major constellations using the wonderfully illustrated Twilight Turtle Star Guide. Twilight Turtle helps make bedtime fun for children of all ages not just toddlers.

Each Twilight Turtle is unique too, because every turtle is individually hand painted for an artful look that complements the nursery or child's room.

Target practice with a brand new twist! Back-in-the-day this toy would have featured a projectile to knock down the targets, but With the Gunslinger Shooting Set, although your aim is still to hit targets from a distance, the western-style six-shooter gun actually fires an accurate yet safe infrared beam at the can and bottle targets perched on a log. It's equipped with a sensor and target plunger system that flings your target into the air if your aim is dead on! A fun gift idea for boys and girls ages 5 and up.

If you ask the mom and dad what you should get their boy for Christmas, the parent will probably recommend books or clothing. You know, practical things. If you ask the boy what he wants for Christmas he'll most likely tell you he wants a Nintendo Wii, XBox 360 or a video game, surprise-surprise he wants the fun stuff. So how do you reconcile the two? Educational video games and board games would meet both sets of criteria. Fun and educational gifts for kids are great. Educational DVD's with math, language and science games would be a hit with both kids and parents. So would board games that require thinking or language skills. If you have an older boy on your Christmas gift list, here are some totally cool gift ideas for boys
