41kBON3M2ZL._SL500_AA280_.jpg

Ok, seriously, this thing is just too cool. Designed for kids 3 year-6 years, this interactive "Smart cycle" is both fun and of course educational. Check out the product description:

Smart Cycle plugs right into your TV, ready to take kids on learning adventures like no other. As they pedal, favorite character friends guide them through learning discoveries, games and even exciting races. Other activities don't require pedaling at all. Includes Learning Adventure game cartridge with 3 ways to play:

1) Drive, steer and learn at your own pace--visit Math Mountain, Shape Lake, Number Fields, Letter Creek and other stops along the way.

2) Learn, stop and rest, but don't stop learning! Use the joystick to reinforce important learning skills with plenty of games and activities with different levels for growing kids.

3) Race--put the pedal to the metal as you race with cars on-screen, against the clock, or with another player.

Includes Learning Journey software and the other themes sold separately include: Nick Jr.Dora the Explorer Friendship Adventure, Nick Jr.Go Diego Go! Diego's Animal Rescue, Discover the Dinosaurs, Nickelodeon SpongeBob Squarepants Ocean Adventure, Hot Wheels Barbie Fairytopia.

In reviews, it has been found that the Cycle was pretty easy to put together, but a drawback is that it is a one size fits all--no adjusting the handlebars for kids that may be bigger than normal or taller, etc. Also, it appears that it is a battery EATER with those mighty expensive D batteries. The price has gone down on it a bit and you can actually get it new for a little over 70.00, so if you have an active child that would even remotely be in this ballpark for activity, check it out for sure!
