I am going through my son's room cleaning out stuff he has outgrown. I was going to freecycle them but I'd prefer to give them to someone I know if anyone is interested.

TAKEN "The Ancient Rome Discovery Kit" Explore the life and legends of the ancient world and excavate a replica of a working roman sundial. Inside you'll find a 64 page book, Life in Ancient Romee. A working replica of a Roman sundial like those found in Aquileia, Italy, buried in soft rock. An excavation tool and step by step instructions. Never opened. :cry: Would make a nice Christmas gift.

Science magic tricks. This kit includes 35 project booklets but they may not all be there but most of them are. The kit is also suppose to include a table tennis ball, 4 latex ballons, a piece of fake fur and 2 squares of cheesecloth but they are missing. I would think you could easily replace them. It says it is for ages 8 and up.

TAKEN Book: Find the Constellations by H. A. Rey. Some reviewer comments "I predict this book will turn many fourth to seventh graders into ardent sky watchers" - ALA Booklist. "His text...is clear, informal, and has a gaiety which persuades the reader that astronomy is not only easy - it's fun" NY Times. 8.5" x 11" paperback. 74 pgs.

TAKEN Amazing card tricks. 25 easy to learn and fun tricks. Never opened :bang:

Crosswords and Wordsearches. Grades 5-8. Author: Instructional Fair, Inc.The crosswords have a word bank and some incorporate other learning as well. For example, one crossword is entitled 'The grammer grapevine' A clue is "A koala lives in Australia' Some of the wordbank words are verb, noun, plural, possessive, singular noun... You have to pick the part of speech 'koala' is. In the wordsearch, the same type of thing happens. For instance, one is entitled "prominent blacks" and the words you have for find are Charlie Pride, Martin Luther King, Andrew Young, Jesse Owens, ...

TAKEN Best ever paper airplanes kit. For ages 8 and up. Contains a how to booklet and colored paper. "Fold, measure, cut, and decorate your way to the greatest paper airplanes ever to soar through the air. Open up this unique 'hanger' to find special flying paper in white and colors, colorful pens, special marking and lettering stencils, and everything else you need to create more than 100 different planes from 18 basic designs" Never opened. :confused: Would make a good Christmas gift.

Uh Oh... I just opened up the airplane kit and found that the how to make airplanes book is missing. I'll search around his room a bit and see if I can find it. Everything else is there. :confused: It looked like it had never been opened.

I Spy SNAP card game. There is no age group on it but I would think something like 4-7. The idea is everyone has some cards face down. Everyone flips one over at the same time. The first one that finds a match wins those cards. Some cards are very similiar like they all have bees on them but they are in a different posiiton. Cards are in the original packaging and look like new. Personally I don't think they were ever played with.

Pick up sticks in it's original round wooden carrying case. Excellent shape.

Remote controlled brown camoflaged army tank. The tank is about 8-10 inches long and 4 inches high. The only thing wrong with it is 2 of the flags on it are bent. They could probably be straightened with some effort. Comes with some men and 2 dayglo orange 'pads' that can be used as obstacles to get around. I do not have original packaging for this.

Set of 3 dinosaurs. The are nice ones. There's a brontosaurus, a stegasaurus and another one with horns on the front. They are made of hard rubber/plastic like material and their main body is about the size of my hand.

Millenium Falcon that shoots nerf type disks. This does make some futuristic type noise when you shoot it but Kyle had a lot of fun playing with it. Comes with a belt type thing that you wear across your chest to hold extra disks. Excellent condition

A transformer that goes from a plane into something else. Don't know what though.

A large shoebox full of matchbox cars.

A matchbox car still in its original packaging

Large Gundam action figure

12" tall Spiderman action figure

12" tall Green Goblin action figure

If you have not mail my stuff, I was trying to be polite and wait for other people to claim stuff, but I would love the yo-yo, pick up sticks, and snap game too.

:love: thanks!

Good news Kate!
I found the book for the paper airplane making kit. I don't think it was ever even opened. Looks to me like it is brand new. I'll send the kit along to you as well.

I will try to pack it today and send it tomorrow. I'll let you know when I have actually sent it.
