A handheld DVR on the go? Yes. One for kids? Absolutely – and one tough enough for kids.

This might be something you want to get for the kids so they don’t miss their favorite shows. Fisher Price was at CES to debut and talk about their Kid-Tough DVR. This is a rugged DVR that can hold their favorite shows in the unit. The 3.5 inch touchscreen has interactive menus so the kids can find their shows, or pause, stop, and forward through playback.

To add content on the DVR, all a parent has to do is connect it to the TV, then program show recordings up to 24 hours in advance.

The Kid-Tough DVR is expected to be out in June for around $150. The unit will come with charger and dock (rechargeable battery brings 4-6 hours of play time). You can get in colors of blue and pink, and there is a micro-SD slot to bring 32 GB of memory into the device.
