Now here's a simple but ingenious thingy that flies like a bat out of hell. Now a 6 year old will get a kick out of em, but he won't be able to send em into geosynchonous orbit the way you will because how high you fly depends on how fast you can spin it between your hands, and the bigger the hands, the better. Expect to get them caught in trees and try to avoid passing jets. Don't let the cheap price fool ya. Seriously, these suckers are fun.

This is one of those ingenious, cheap ideas that's great for us grown-up kids too. It's an assembly with three 6" rotor blades and comes with two balloons. The air from the balloon goes through the blades and exits the trailing edge, mahing it spin. We guestimate it goes up about 50 feet and honks like a goose due to a tiny noise maker in the center, and when it runs out of air, it sorta auto-rotates down. We tried attaching those weiner balloons to it, which are more aerodynamic, and that's pretty fun too. After a while the balloon stretches and the maximum altitude decreases, but you can use any old small to medium size balloon on it.

These things always make me laugh. I'm not sure if it's the way they wriggle around as they fly or the silly honking noise they make, but they're lots of fun. They might swirl around the ground and they might go straight up to 40 or 50 feet. They come with 4 inflation tubes.

Okay, in general, the critters tend to avoid gag stuff that crosses the threshold from fun/silly to stupid, so you won't find whoopie cushions and fake vomit here, but this guy has a certain subtlety and understated elegance to it. It's a real pen thatyou use by turning the barrel-not by pressing the button on top, but when you hand it to somebody, they WILL press the button on top....won't they?

Hand Puppets are lots of silly fun. We have 10 diferent critters (See the details for pictures). These are better quality than most we've seen, and while they seem to be intended for relatively small hands (HA!), the average adult hand will also fit. They're about 9" tall.
