FyrFlyz Review

                  


Recently I was asked to review a new toy called FyrFlyz.  This is an incredibly cool little light toy that is really a pretty simple concept.  The FyrFlyz is basically a string and a plastic piece that has a light attached, as you twist and twirl it the light makes all kinds of cool designs!  They are available in three styles (shown above).  I was sent two FyrFlyz...the Blue Angel and the Nyt Fyr. For my review, I was asked to do a video demonstration of the FyrFlyz, so my boys were happy to oblige! : )  Watch this!






FyrFlyz are sold at major toy retailers, including ToysRUs, for under $10.  These would make a great stocking stuffer or extra little birthday present and provide a lot of fun for all ages!  They are marked as 8 years old and up, however under supervision, my 4 year old was able to do quite a little light show himself!  Both of my boys enjoyed this new toy, and the only negative thing my oldest had to say was that when using two of the FyrFlyz together they tend to get tangled and are a little hard to get untangled.  My littlest one just keeps asking if he can play with it...so I would say he likes it!


You can go here for a step-by-step demonstration on how to use the FyrFlyz, but honestly it only takes a minute or two to get the hang of it and you will be making all kinds of cool designs!  However, if you are looking to be extra creative and learn all the cool tricks, here is link to the Trick Gallery


You can follow FyrFlyz on Facebook also for more information on this cool new toy!


**I was given the FyrFlyz Toy in return for my personal review and video.  I also recieved a Toys R Us gift card for submitting the video review.**
