Small enough to fit in a diaper bag, these gadgets require just a few turns of a knob to mash up the good stuff moms are (or should be) eating. "It's easier and cheaper than baby food," he says. And once kids naturally gravitate to healthy foods for nourishment, moms can expect to reap a second benefit. "You can forget food battles," says Greene...

The game requires players to move the ball sideways as well as vertically. There's a knob on the base unit that players must turn (the old-fashioned way, with their hands) while focusing to get the ball, for example, through a tiny hoop. At the toy fair, a Mattel spokesperson joked that Mindflex requires "mind-eye coordination...
