We are undertaking a project. We have a toy car with a motor and a remote control. (from Woolworths) We are converting it into a small girl who will walk along the sea front. We have some sticks and wire and a stuffed head which will turn using another motor. Our car/girl wheels are dragging on the ground and the chassi doesn’t seem to fit with the wheels. Does anyone have an hints for making car-girls? I know you all do it all the time.

How to motivate a race car fan to be more academic?

Dilbert asked:


My five-year-old son is obsessed with cars. Both real cars and toy cars. And the “Cars” movie, and NASCAR. He will stand in front of the TV holding a toy car, and, whenever a race car goes by, he will move his toy car fast with his hand, making it clear he’s dreaming of driving one of those race cars.

How can I use that obsession to motivate him to become interested in academic stuff, such as reading, writing, arithmetic, etc.?

I want to buy a toy car for my nephew, he collects those cars that are like 1:15 scale or something around there. Are there brands, etc that are worth buying more than others?
Treasure chest? Like a little picture on the box? Any cars that are larger than those?
