What materials are safe to use when building toys for pet mice?

Q. I like building toys for my pet mice, but I'm running out of idea. I usually use toilet paper, carboard, posicle sticks, paper, and hot glue to hold it all together, but I think the mice are getting bored with these materials. What other materials can I use to build toys?

A. Try wood, the wood gives something sturdy that will last a while and will also give them something to chew and jump on witch also gives them something to do so there not board.

What is the name of this toy from the early eighties?

Q. This was a building toy, kind of like construx, but more basic. It had these colored plastic tubes of different lengths and colors (I sometimes used the red ones as straws) and they were connected by these white plastic pieces that had 2, 3 or 4 prongs. I can remember being able to build a train out of them. If you know the name of the toy or what company created it, that would be awesome. Thank you.

How can you make a homemade toy car go the fastest?

Q. I have to build a toy car myself without using any type of engine. It will being going down a ramp and it has to be completely self propelled by gravity. Any ideas on how to make the car? And how to make it the fastest possible?

A. Well, scientifically, anything that is golf-ball shaped (spherical and having those little dimples) is the most aero-dynamic shape possible, but if you have already built the chassis, then I suggest doing what that other guy said. Also, make sure that the wheels are small, and keep it low to the ground, and add weight to the entire car, as heavy as you can make it, but make sure to put the most weight in the front

What should I get my 15 month old for Christmas?

Q. My kids have so many toys already, so I am really torn on what to get my 15 month old for Christmas. I have some mega blocks so far, but that is it. I want some ideas for inexpensive educational or skill building toys that will "grow with him" so that he will get a lot of use out of them. Preferably without a lot of little pieces. We want to keep mess to a minimum. Thanks!!

A. Get your 15 month old something colorful that has lots of things to do on it. Like a Playskool Busy Basics Ball-Tivity Center, or if your child is a boy, get him a Playskool Tonka Cushy Crusin' Fire Truck.

How can I teach my 2 year old son patience?

Q. My husband has no patience and I am starting to notice that our son is taking after him. He gets mad and angry and makes these cute faces but I don't want him to grow up not knowing how to handle his frustrastion. I have read that Legos is a good patience building toy but so far they just seem to make my son even more frustrated. Does anyone have any advice on how I can teach my son patience or is this something that can't be controlled?
Yes, I understand that he is only two. However, I don't want him to become like his daddy. My husband has a hard time controlling his temper. It is better to teach him now than later when he is used to getting angry at everything.
My son does not get a lot of sweets. My husband and I don't like sweets so we don't keep them in the house. If my son does get candy/sweets it is at his grandparents house at that is only for special occassions.

A. It CAN be controlled, and it's good that you noticed it before it got to be too late. I think your first move is to sit down with daddy & have a nice calm conversation about it. Be sure not to yell back if he starts up.... It's not something you want to discuss with your son in the room, anyway. If your husband's way out of control with it, see how receptive he is to having it brought up in the first place, then maybe suggest counseling of some sort. (I live with a 30-year-old crybaby whinebag--temper included--so I've learned to ignore it, but that doesn't make it any more pleasant.)
Basically, what you want to enforce to your child is that certain actions and reactions are unacceptable, right? So obviously, you have to have hubby agree with this first. That's gonna be the hard part.
Where your son is concerned, it's perfectly fine for you to tell him "that is not okay," and "if you can't play nice with that, you don't need to play with it right now." It is perfectly fine to remove him from the situation and let him go cry out his frustrations. Put him in his room for a few minutes to have a fit, then sit down & talk about it with him. Once he learns to identify his feelings and the reasons for them, he can find new, more appropriate ways to express those feelings.

How can you build a toy crane?

Q. I want instructions on how to build a toy crane, similar to the ones found in arcades. I know a bit about building mechanics, and I know people who know a lot about it. Preferably it would pick up mid-size teddy bears, but different sizes would be okay. I know how to work steel, so I'd want to know what sizes of things I'd need to make. I'd also want it to be relatively strong, so that it wouldn't drop the bears, unlike the cranes found in some arcades, where you can never win.

A. Check out the website attached. These instructions should be a good start.
