Sustainable Home Building, For Kids
It may take kids with a certain personality to find this fun, but maybe it's what they need to learn how to live in a world with global warming. 
The Thames & Kosmos Power House Kit lets kids 12 and older build a model house complete with solar panels, windmill, greenhouse and a desalination system. But wait, there's more! If you order in the next five minutes, it also comes with an electric train, a solar cooker, solar hot water tank, hygrometer, electric motor, power hoist, a sail car and a 96-page book!
Developed by a physicist, the package intends to show kids how one can live sustainably on a remote island, harnessing power from the sun and wind.
At $124.95, it may seem expensive, but it sure seems more educational and useful than a new Xbox game.
