Young Reviewers Test Toys, Games, and more!

Today’s Little Dispatch features hands-on reviews of fidgets, slime, and games – all tested by kids, for kids! If you have a kid in your life who is wondering what to spend their allowance money on — this guide is for them!

Highlights from this issue:

  • Meta Morph Shape Shifting Toy: "It doubles in length when you stretch it... a great fidget toy"

  • Cotton Candy Cloud Slime: "It feels like wet, fake snow... very fluffy and the color is terrific"

  • Dixit Board Game: A beautifully illustrated, “easy to learn” board game “for people who enjoy telling stories"

  • Jumbo Gummee Squish Frog: "HIGHLY RECOMMEND" says our young reviewer!

Our young journalists flexed their critical thinking and descriptive writing skills by sharing pros and cons, recommended age ranges, and real user experiences. Students learned to balance enthusiasm with objectivity, practiced persuasive writing techniques, and discovered how their voices can serve our local community of readers.

Pick up your copy of the Rivertowns Dispatch at local newsstands and libraries to get access to this special guide!

New Kawaii, a Rivertowns Dispatch advertiser, provided all products for testing. Reviews were independently created by Little Dispatch contributors.
