Looking for a cool toy that is actually for dad but that your kids will love too? The new Sphero 2.0 works with your iOS or Android and turns your family room into a videogame.

Just download the Sphero apps onto your mobile phone or device and play. The ball can roll at up to seven feet per second and jump ramps. You can create racecourses around your living room or play educational games together.

We linked Sphero up to our iPad and tested it out with our kiddie testers – it was a huge hit! They even gave it a pet name and laughed as Sphero danced around the floor.
