With Tomy‘s Pokémon Trainer Gloves with Sound, kids ages 4 and up can pretend to be Ash as they toss their Poké Ball around. As the gloves move, the motion activation kicks in and plays one of four different sound effects. I like the responsiveness of these gloves (the sounds come from the right-hand glove) as I swung my hand out, whether straight in front of me or out to the side. The gloves fit well and are sure to fit even young kids, and feature a velcro wrist fastener for a secure fit.
