Remember those mysterious boxes until about ten years ago still used seen in the window of a toy store filled with glass tubes, vials, rubber tubes, funnels and a lot more? They were the much desired
Chemistry Games, one of the most interesting educational toys from decades past, which competed with the Meccano, Philately and the rancher for the kids free time after doing "homework"
Al .- Like the "Meccano" came numbered and access to the largest box was not for everyone, even there was some inter-brand competition: The "Jugal" was less ambitious, but the "Frosiart, numbering in their cases was highest a real miniature laboratory with alcohol burner included .-
In walks "the center" with our parents used to watch and we stopped gawking, considering to sell our soul so he could take home the coveted game and of course, was always a grandmother or an aunt who took advantage of a birthday for Actually our hope .-
Undoubtedly many vocations were stimulated with this type of game with microscopes "Microbito" or "Zuhio" and others like it - it is my particular case - and in some ways were the springboard to install the "Laboratory" galponcito own in the background and replace some comic books for a book of elementary chemistry
.- They could take many simple but interesting experiments, observations detailed insects, sample collections and more, the hours of entertainment were insured and that fun teaching, very different from modern electronic toys that transmit only examples of violence accompanied by loud sounds and stultifying
.- I'm not saying the old days was better ... but that little is done these days to prove otherwise ... Do not you think?
