Technology touches all ages. Yes, the world tends
to focus on the smartphones and the tablets that
keep the wheels of commerce and entertainment
humming. Generally, it's a world for adults. But
not everything is aimed at the salaried set.
There are tech toys meant to fill children with
wonder, teach them about the broader world -- or
simply make them laugh in joy. And, of course,
there are video games, which can entertain
anyone. Here are some of the more interesting
tech-oriented gifts for the children and
teenagers. LeapFrog LeapPad Ultra. WowWee

• More than 90 heads of state are on their way to
  South Africa for what is expected to be the
  largest gathering of world leaders in Africa's
  history. It's a clear sign of what kind of impact
  Nelson Mandela left on the world. President
  Barack Obama heads to Johannesburg on Monday for
  Mandela's official memorial service, which will
  take place Tuesday in the city's soccer stadium.
  But the 90,000 seats probably won't be enough to
  house the many mourners wanting to pay thanks to
  the great anti-apartheid leader.
• Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra dissolved
  the nation's parliament Monday and called for new
  elections. But the move did little to appease
  anti-government protesters who remained on the
  streets by the thousands. Between 100,000 and
  150,000 demonstrators rallied in Bangkok, with
  protest leaders saying their goal Monday is to
  storm Shinawatra's office, known as Government
  House. The country will hold new elections by
  February 2, but embattled Prime Minister Yingluck
  Shinawatra may not be her party's choice to run,
  a government spokesman told CNN on Monday.
