Mid-winter break is less than a week away for New York City students, and with kids home, News 12 is providing a look at the toys best equipped to bust boredom during the week off. 

The toys are aimed to challenge the mind and body of kids while they have fun. Madeline Buckley, a senior editor at the Toy Insider, showed News 12 one toy that lets you enjoy fun at any speed. 

"These are Sonic the Hedgehog racers... one thing I love about these racers is that they're budget friendly. They're only $20 each, so you can use them for multiple kids in the house," said Buckley. 

Toy Insider experts showed News 12 a variety of other toys, from Lego building blocks to a pop-up pirate game and even a budget-friendly bounce house that costs less than $130.
