The Birdhouse Branches Out
The Birdhouse Discovery Center is the place for activity and fun. New to our line are the “Eyehand” game with fun memory and reflex games and “Music & Circuit” game that lets you use your own music to exercise at your own pace. Try any of our interactive video games before you buy. The J-mat, Boxing and Tennis are great fun too. We sell the games for the same price as the online company store. You can visit the company website at Xavix.com. Also check out my blog at www.funoutxavix.blogspot.com
