Bop-It!
I was introduced to a great new toy recently, the Bop-It Extreme II. This is a great game for people with poor hand eye coordination and can be played on your own or in a group. It also helps develop a sense of rhythm.
The game is hard to describe and really needs to be played with to do it justice. Have a look at this page on the manufacturer’s web site. I got mine from W H Smiths’ for £20 and they can be ordered from Firebox for £25. Amazon (.co.uk and .com) only seems to have the older, less good, Bop It Extreme.
