The first is a FREE gift...it is the perfect stocking stuffer. Go to http://marsparticipate.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/participate/sendyourname and fill out the form with the child's information. Their name will appear on a microchip on the Mars Science Laboratory rover that is headed to Mars in 2011! You can print out the certificate and put it in their stocking!
The next gift is the perfect tech gift that involves the whole family. Drum roll....I invite you to checkout the Geomate.jr at http://www.geocaching.com/geomate/default.aspx. In a nut shell geocaching is the techie version of hide and seek mixed in with a bit of treasure hunting. This GPS device is designed for youngsters...it's already pre-loaded with geocache locations across every state in the beautiful USA. My nine year old daughter loves her Geomate.jr. We had a great time this summer at York River State Park in Virginia looking for travel bugs, coins, etc! The only problem we ran into was the high tide along the shoreline. The Geomate.jr will only set you back about $70.00, but it will provide you with quality family time, outdoor adventure, and and endless hours of hide and seek!
