Air Toobz is an innovative STEM toy that uses airflow to shoot foam balls through transparent tubes - genuinely engaging for ages 2-12. The 2023 Toy of the Year Finalist recognition is earned. However, I have concerns: no explicit BPA-free certification (unlike Fat Brain's own Squigz line), stability issues, and some units failing within months.
