Back Yard Flyer - Best Toys 2006 - Kids Galaxy

For the last few years, Kid Galaxy has been manufacturing toys for young children. Over the last two years, they have won numerous awards, including close to 20 for the year 2005 alone. One of their most popular items is the Kid Galaxy Back Yard Flyer. The simple and safe design allows kids to fly model planes right out of the box.

The Kid Galaxy Back Yard Flyer is a complete system. The launching mechanism has a charger contained within that takes approximately 10 seconds to get the plane ready for flight. Four AA batteries are all that are needed for operation, sending the plane multiple feet into the air. As opposed to more complex controllers, the plane is launched from a simple hand-held device that allows users to point the plane in any direction. The small motorized plane uses the launch momentum to carry it along its way.

Made of a soft yet durable plastic, the Kid Galaxy Back Yard Flyer is meant for younger children and comes in a variety of designs. From civilian aircraft to military designs, kids can choose from half a dozen different looks. The manufacturers even offer a double pack that includes two planes for head-to-head action.

In addition to their Back Yard Flyers, Kid Galaxy also offers a variety of other toys. From radio controlled vehicles to pose-able figures, the company is dedicated to making safe toys for preschoolers and up. They even offer a number of sport themed items that are officially licensed by a number of leading sports associations.
