6. LEGO Mindstorms NXT 

As soon as you open the Lego Mindstorms Robot box you'll notice that this product is more than a toy, you realize that it would take part of your imagination and creativity to achieve the robot of your dreams with all the lego technic pieces, sensors and motors you get.

All the LEGO positives - modularity, durability, design - are there. On board memory is somewhat limited, but this should help in learning to write creative and efficient programs - to design bot's for very specific tasks.

Programming is the real gem in this system. It has a drag-and-drop interface using pre-programmed objects that you pull from a palette and snap to other objects. Each object is configurable. For example, the Sound object brings up a sub-window that allows you to choose between a tone and a list of sound files, set the volume, set duration, and so on. Little Lego bricks between the objects reinforce the idea that building a NXT program is like building a Lego model. Programming this way is much easier than, say, creating a web page from scratch. Lego even offers a software development kit for getting deeper into the programming.

8. LeapFrog Learn And Groove Musical Table 

We got this toy for my daughter when she was about 6 months old. It was the only toy she never seemed to tire of. She played with it regularly until she was about two and we put it in storage. When my son was about 6 months old we pulled it back out and we were pleased that not only did he love it, but now at 3 1/2 she would still play with it. It's great to have something that both older and younger kids can enjoy together!!! This is one toy that won't just collect dust!!"
