If your kid has dreams of becoming a Major League Baseball pitcher some day, then this radar pitch baseball could be a fun gift (and, hey, you can play with it too). The ball has a small LCD screen that displays the speed of the latest pitch. Throw it any distance (little league or pro), and the ball has no trouble using internal sensing technology to measure and report the velocity of the pitch when it’s caught. To save on battery life, it shuts off automatically if you don’t use it for 2 minutes.
The ball is available from Brookstone for $25:
