Local Toys

So the first rule of teaching is figure out your kids are into. As I'm in a totally new culture, I'm sorta back to square 1. So today I'd thought I'd do some homework.

I picked up one of the robot model kits that are very popular with upper primary boys.

I thought putting one of these together would be pretty easy. Man I was in for surprise. This is what I got out of the box...

Two hours later I ended up with this rather handsome fellow.

I just can't get over how cool this guy is put together. It is fully posable but yet solid like an action figure. Yet he is made of many loose pieces adhered by no glue whats so ever.

Though he seems to be getting kind of mad at our prying into his business...

Oh no run!!!
