Young Architect Toy…


So i came across this whilst searching around Amazon

The stereotypical child architect...? well he does look like a wanker i guess.

The young architect by …‘Poof-Slinky’ (no….really…)

Build your own 3-D architectural models – just like real architects do!

  • Reusable design and building set
  • Create 3-D models in three easy steps
  • Design floor plans with room templates
  • Furnish rooms with the furniture guide and colored pencils
  • Build a 3-D model on top of the floor plan
  • 9 room templates

Why isn't this child wearing all black?

Learn to envision different uses of space, proportion and architectural design to create your own unique dream house.

“I bought this for my 14 year old son and was very disappointed…. A pad of graph paper, plastic templates that are available at office supply stores, a good metal ruler, some paper and tape are a better investment than this. ”

“I agree …this item disappointing. Actually, that’s putting it mildly. (…) all you get is few pieces of acrylic, tracing paper, a few peel and stick windows and four colored pencils. The “manual” is a 4-page booklet with little useful information in it. The people selling this should be ashamed of foisting it on gullible consumers (like me). Borders on being a scam. ”

All for the low, low price of US$55

I have come up with a cheaper solution, rather than spending a lot of money on your child (they certainly wont have money if they do make it to be an architect after all!) why not give them the real experience?

Simply keep your child awake for 40 hours straight, get them addicted to red bull and have them design a fully drafted and documented 4 bedroon, 2 bathroom, living, dining and kitched 6 star enegy rating house that complies with building codes and regulations and uses solely recycled materials – by tomorrow.

    In many years, this is one movie which not only delivers over a story-line, but is a difficult earned action movie delivering
    the entertainment you would expect in the likes of MI-6,
    that is, James Bond. Textual content messages so when up to four images
    may be combined with any blanket. You could of course play any downloaded
    movie straight from your hard disk drive on your computer but why.

    never understand. It seems too complicated and
    very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I
    will try to get the hang of it!

  16. Great post. I am going through a few of these issues as well..

  17. What you composed was actually very logical. However, think about this, what if you added a little content? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your website, but suppose you added a post title to maybe get people’s attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is kinda plain. You could peek at Yahoo’s home page and see how they write post titles to grab viewers interested. You might add a video or a related picture or two to grab readers interested about what you’ve written. In my opinion, it might bring your posts a little bit more interesting.

    blogger. I’ve joined your feed and look forward to seeking

Captain Feline employs anthropomorphism to blend pop culture with cats. The results are a collection of fun t-shirts and limited edition art prints – purr-fect for displaying a combined love of cats and cult movie characters! Whilst the debut t-shirt illustrations by Dave are inspired by cult and classic movie characters, the team plan to increase the range to feature other pop culture icons as they grow and expand.
