Inconspicuous Histories in rooms

A petit block toy of polar bear

One kind of mini-blocks toys made by Daiso, for children over 12. Although I had become an adult, when I played this kind of toys, I highly concentrated on it and can’t be distracted. When completed the toy, it can give people a sense of accomplishment and somewhat pleasure. I named it Popo and placed it on my desk as decoration.

The second mini-block toy I have after the polar bear. Lovely and easily to be assembled. I spent less than one hour to assemble it. As friend of my polar bear and seating with the bear toy. I will buy the third one to stronger this toy family.

A Little shop toy from Coles

An arguing sale strategy by Coles, when people buy more than AU$ 30, they can get a random mini toy which mainly made by plastic. This instant noodle toy is one of the mini toy collection of Cole’s little shop. The argument is, in this highly promoting environmental-friendly country which people reduce the plastic use as much as possible, this sale strategy actually produced more plastic product, However, these mini toys may really add fun to our lives.

A sciossor

This is a second-hand scissor I got it from the last roommate of the room I lived before. The scissor was left in the room when I just move in. The landlord told me this room used to living a Monash student who had graduated and come back to his home country. If I found some items he left is useful, I can keep it otherwise these items will be threw in the landfill. I found this scissor is great so I keep it until now, although I have moved from that house.

Magic sand in water

Magic sand, a kind of sand toy which made by hydrophobic material, when it be put in the water will become chunky. For reason of curiosity, I purchased this toy and tried to play it. Actually, it’s not so magical because when it out of water it still became a little bit wet and very easy to block drains. For another, it can be very difficult to clean when some of it is in the carpet. Picture of the first time and the last time I played.
