Message in a Bottle by AM Authentic Models

This is an elegant and rather simple toy, with a concept that will not only change the way in which the child thinks, but also broaden his or her horizon by an entire planet. There is something about messages in a bottle that tends to rattle our adventure bones. Especially when we don’t have any idea where they came from and what is their purpose. They just drips around, being carried by the currents, finally landing somewhere far and mysterious, in a rather long period of time. The same can be said about Message in a Bottle, and instead of trying to balance education and fun, you get them both in equal doses. What this play set is about is rather simple. You get a chart with the current around the world, a proper messaging bottle, and a template for a message. You write your message on the template, and your phone number, you put it in the bottle and you set it adrift in the sea or ocean, and wait. At some point in time, the bottle will hit land, and it will be found. The message will be read, and the person reading the message will call you, and tell you where he or she found it. Then you can trace the route on your map and see how and where the currents carried your bottle. It is a lot of fun and it is also rather educational as well, because the child will also learn a lot about currents and the way in which the sea moves its waters. It is one of those small wonders that you get to discover as a kid and actually try it out, and not only will it help your kid get a boost and a sense of accomplishment, but it will also help him or her in the long run because your kid will know that no matter what obstacles may come his or her way, he or she can always rely on both modern and old tried and tested solutions to find a way out.
