July 27th 2008 00:53
Kiz Toys is about safety, innovation and education.
Cars, action figures, have all intoduced technology.
Everything in the Kiz Toys product line focuses on having an educational value.
Children can interact anonymously in secure settings online.
"We want to reinvent every toy," they said.
Kiz Toys model is to take a traditional toy, whether a car, plane, doll, action figure – and integrate that specific toy with the child's computer to allow interaction both in the physical and digital world.
KizMoto vehicles, for instance, will use a USB key that literally looks like a big key, for the child to put into the home computer. The key is required to access the car's online, interactive features, adding security. Each key has its own access and unique identification on it, with data stored to the key. The key itself becomes the new identity, not the child. What happens if the child loses the key? That, too, is an education, as it carries consequences just as if an adult lost a car key.
The child will be responsible for maintaining the car in a virtual world, checking tires, oil and other fluids. The car can be personalized also. It can be taken to the gaming world to race.
Kiz Toys pays a lot of attention to the safety of kids on line as many parents are nervous of their kids having access to the internet.
This looks cool to me dude, and techno the geek brings it to
