Amazing Toys All Big Kids Need

When you become an adult, you're supposed to let go of childish things. But as we can see from the Pokemon Go craze, adults are becoming more open about the less-than-adult things they enjoy doing. I say that just because you're a grown-up, it doesn't mean you can't do things that please your inner child. 

Many adults watch cartoons or other kids' shows, play games in various formats, and use toys and gadgets. When you earn money for yourself, you can spend it on all the toys you never got as a child! There are lots of toys for adults that can have benefits beyond just having fun too. These are my top recommendations to gift someone or to treat yourself.

Trampoline

A trampoline might seem like a weird thing to buy if you don't have kids. However, there are some great reasons to own one. You've probably seen some of the trampoline play centres that have opened around the UK. They're not just for kids and often hold sessions and even fitness classes for adults. But you don't have to go to one of them to enjoy a trampoline. You can put one in your garden or even a mini one inside your home. What's so great about them, though? Firstly, there super fun to bounce on. But if that's not enough, they also keep you fit. They're great for cardio, and you can do lots of exercises on them.

Drones

Drones and remote-control helicopters have grown in popularity in the last few years. Some of them are definitely not meant for little kids. You wouldn't want to spend hundreds of pounds on a sophisticated piece of equipment and then hand the controls to a five-year-old. They can do all sorts of amazing things if you're willing to learn how to operate them. As well as flying them around and performing tricks, many have cameras. You can get started really quickly too, by following the first instructions for your drone as soon as you get it.

Virtual Reality Headset

Virtual reality is still something that seems pretty futuristic. However, it's now real, and you can experience it for yourself. The Samsung Gear VR is currently one of the most popular models on the market, and it's not that expensive. It works with Samsung Galaxy smartphones and will cost you around £80, or possibly even less.

3D Printer

This is one toy you almost definitely wouldn't get for a child. Not long ago, 3D printers were too expensive and too big to have in your home. But now there are several options for tech lovers that want a new toy to play with. For example, the XYZ 3D Printer is inexpensive and doesn't take up much space, either. Your imagination is the limit with a 3D printer. You can design whatever you like on your computer and print it out. People have done some amazing things with them, including printing prosthetic limbs.

Being an adult doesn't stop you from enjoying your toys. In fact, you could argue that adults need toys more to help them escape!
