You may be 32 36, but that's not to say that the kid in you is long gone. At this week's Toy Fair (http://www.engadget.com/tag/toy+fair) in New York City, VTech took a welcome step away from the landline handset (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/25/landline-breakthrough-vtech-announces-a-dect-6-0-walkie-talkie/) department and tried its hand with a few swank toys. Up first is the $59.99 MobiGo (shown after the break), a handheld gaming system designed for minds within humans aged 3 to 7.

Potentially more interesting, however, is the Flip; described as the planet's first children's animated e-reader, this $59.99 device has a 4.3-inch color touchscreen, a built-in dictionary and a QWERTY keyboard.
