Bullet holes in the banks of blue lockers. Ceiling tiles ajar where kids had scampered to hide in the crawl space. Shoes left behind by kids who literally ran out of them.

LOOK OUT, FURBY Just when it seemed we were safe from those cloying Furbies, along comes another batch of furry wannabes. Wuvvies from Trendmasters ($30) are bright blue or green toys that sing, talk, laugh and speak gibberish when kids age 4 and up touch hidden sensors on the Wuvvy's forehead, back and mouth.
