Need a fun and creative new toy to keep kids engaged this summer, during those rainy days and long car rides? Check out Fuzzoodles, a crafty new toy that’s a clever mashup of Bendaroos and Mr. Potato Head. Love the catchy theme song, too.

Here’s a product so new there isn’t even an commercial for it yet. The Marvel Inflatable Cheer Chairs will be seen on TV for the first time on the Memorial Day (May 31) episode of ABC’s The View. These inflatable talking chairs feature the Marvel Super Hero Squad and Iron Man in full color and speak the heroes’ catch phrases at the touch of a button. Made of durable vinyl, these chairs are perfect for watching TV, playing video games or just being surrounded by these hugely popular super heroes. Each chair comes with FREE Upper Deck Marvel Super Hero Squad or Iron Man 2 collectible trading cards as well as a foot pump for easy set up. And if you can get tickets for The View’s studio audience, rumor has it that all audience members will be getting a free chair!

The Gyro Bowl meets all the criteria for a successful As Seen on TV product. It solves a common problem (kids spill their snacks), it’s easily and effectively demonstrated (invert bowl and contents do not spill) and it’s a new and unique product with a serious wow factor. While the Gyro Bowl is a practical item that appeals to parents and grandparents, it’s definitely a kid’s toy as much as it’s a utensil.
Just watch the spot. You’ll be wowed. Your Savvy Shopper predicts big sales.

Severely cute.

Sometimes it seems like all activities kids are involved in these days revolve around computers, video game consoles or handheld mobile devices. So when I saw this commercial for Blendy Pens with Color Splitz, it was refreshing and reassuring to see that kids still like to draw and color with pens on paper, like we did at their age. But the young Savvy Shopper never had pens with Fusion Chambers!

Big Top Cupcake is a new product that requires little explanation. Here’s the sitch: It’s a pair of non-stick silicone pans in which you separately bake the top and bottom of humongous cupcakes bigger than your head. From toddlers to centenarians, everyone at the table is going to exhibit extreme gleefulness when a giant cupcake with sprinkles is served for dessert. Except for anorexics and dieters. Depending on choice of mix, filling and toppings, I’m guessing 8,000-12,000 calories in one Big Top Cupcake. And that’s why you never bake a Big Top Cupcake just for yourself, especially on a Saturday night when you’re home all alone feeling sorry for yourself because you’re not in a relationship and you’re sure you’ll remain all alone for eternity. Don’t bake it then.
