Bristol-based education innovator Futurelab have invented what it hopes could become a revolutionary toy which keeps children healthy as well as entertained. A Fizzee is like a watch in that it straps to a child’s wrist and inside it lives a small digital creature, or pet, which is powered by the child’s movement.
The more exercise the child does, the healthier the creature and the more it changes its appearance. But less exercise means the pet fades away. Fizzees are not yet on sale but Futurelab is hoping to test them soon with a group of Bristol school chidlren.
