XaXa

XaXa, pronounced Ksa-Ksa, re-defines what a ball can be while inviting exploration, encouraging creativity, and challenging adults and children to explore what's possible. Made with a polycarbonate core and a removable TPR 100% phthalate and latex free skin, this lightweight 2 3/4" ball weighs only 2 2/3 ounces empty. The core is an inner ball that pulls apart to reveal a hollow center. Fill XaXa with different objects in varying amounts to change the sound or weight. What comes to mind~ball bearings, coins, rice? These are only a beginning. XaXa comes in primary color combinations: yellow/cyan, cyan/magenta, and magenta/yellow. Explore, mix and match colors. The smooth, super elastic skin features raised rim circular cut-outs and offers textural contrast to the bumpy, hard, rigid core. Both core and skin encourage play together and separately. Together they roll, separately the core rolls, the skin bounces, and that's only for starters.

Xa, as the elastic skin is called, has unique features that inspire creativity and active outdoor fun. Push a balloon through an opening in the skin, blow up the balloon, tie off the stem and tuck the end under the skin, and you have an altogether new toy. Filling the balloon with water creates another . Stuffing Xa with a sponge, and wetting the sponge is yet another.

Teachers of the blind and visually impaired will find XaXa a versatile toy as they explore similarities and differences with their charges. Tactile differences and the ability to vary its sound and weight makes XaXa a must have in any toy bag.

Gbaby Roly-Poly Pets

These Swiss-made magnetic pets sit on either side of half domes, inviting play and delighting children as they explore the "magic" of magnets. Sitting securely on the flat side, pets respond to pushing and spinning by rocking back and forth and twirling round and round. Perched atop the rounded dome, pets bounce as if on springs, popping off their bases when push comes to shove. Both pieces rattle when shaken, offer distinctly different textures to explore, and invite experimentation that re-enforces an emerging understanding of cause and effect. All pieces are hermetically sealed, allowing G-baby to double as a bath toy and to go in the dishwasher for easy cleaning. Three options: cat, dog, or by the pair.
