A look at the cool games and gadgets for kids

We’re hopping right into Easter next week, and if you still need some ideas to help fill those Easter baskets, you’re in luck.

From puzzles to games, even slime - we got a sneak peek at some of the fun items you can find at Learning Express Houston.

Sandra Mills, a store manager for Learning Express Houston, stopped by Houston Life with a look at what’s cool for kids this spring.

The most popular items right now are fidget toys, like “Shashibo” and “Spek” – and of course, “Squishmallows!”

Also, the kids love “Dope Slime”. It smells good, and comes in so many textures, and flavors.

“Clack!” is a fun game for kids (ages 5+). It involves rolling dice, looking for matching colors and symbols, and then stacking the discs.

Sandra also recommends “Tonies,” a speaker box for kids (ages 3+), featuring music and stories from some of their favorite characters. Think of it as screen-free play!

“Blinger” is all the rage this year. It’s a styling tool that allows you to instantly add sparkle to your hair and accessories. It works with all hair types and sticks to most materials.
