CARES Kids Fly Safe Airline Safety Harness was invented by a grandmother who wanted to make air travel safer for young children. Louise Stall'ss entrepreneurial journey ultimately led to
a patent and partnership with AmSafe, manufacturer of most of today'ss airline seatbelts. After four years of development and safety testing, the FAA certified the CARES system as the
first and only alternative to car seats allowed on planes. Unlike car seats, it weighs only one pound and fits in a carry-on bag. CARES is a great gift for grandparents to give to parents
for their littlest grandchildren -- and if they don'st live close by, it'ss an incentive for them to hop on a plane to come visit!

Three Cups, a new children'ss book by Mark St. Germain, retells the story of the three 'sold coffee cups's a boy received from his parents for his fifth birthday's8230; a present, his
parents explained, that would 'stake him on many adventures.'s The boy'ss initial disappointment eventually leads to excitement over the meaning behind the three cups - one for saving,
one for spending, and one to use towards a charity of his choice. The lessons in this beautifully illustrated book are simple and classic, and do not read as preachy. Instead, they make
up an engaging story that will encourage children and families to easily put the principles into practice. Read Best in Kids Gifts Superproduct Review (http://grandkidsgiftguide.com/age/5-7-years-old/three-cheers-for-three-cups-a-childrens-book-about-saving-spending-being-charitable/)

Top This! is a new mind-challenging game by Thinkfun, and like most of Thinkfun'ss brain teaser products, is just as appealing to parents and grandparents as it is to children. Developed
for ages 8 and up, the object is to create the same overall shape using orange pieces of varying shapes stacked on top of blue pieces of varying shapes, or vice versa. Top This! borrows
some basic concepts from classic tangrams, yet it has a complex personality all its own. 40 game cards ranging from beginner, to intermediate, to advanced and expert levels (serious
head-scratching), show you the pieces of each color that you will need to complete each puzzle. Family members spanning the generations can tackle the puzzles on their own or help each
other out! Read Best in Kids Gifts Superproduct Review (http://grandkidsgiftguide.com/age/8-11-years-old/hard-to-top-thinkfuns-top-this-brain-teaser-game-is-shape-pattern-matching-spacial-fun/)
