...models. Targeted at youngsters ages 6 to 11 and capable of going as fast as 10 m.p.h., these revved-up rollers will leave foot-powered versions in the dust. There's even a new Electric Punk mini-bike, at right, in the family. Each model runs for approximately 30 min. between charges--which take about 6 hours--and has a surprisingly quiet motor. Just make sure the kids wear a helmet, since these zippy roadsters (from $119 to $179) may tempt them to try more daring feats than ever...

In the Louvre or on a movie screen, we're looked at as objects of beauty. We need to have more going...
Looking for another way to keep the kids from driving you nuts on those long summer road trips? Hasbro's new VideoNow might occupy them for a while. The $50 portable gadget plays 30-min. videodiscs ($7.99 each) with excerpts from popular shows like American Idol, SpongeBob SquarePants and Jimmy Neutron. It runs on a pair of AA batteries that should last for seven hours. And if the videos get too noisy, the kids can plug in a pair of earphones.
