[extropy-chat] Maximising Human Potential : Education : Toys

[Daniel Matthews]

Given a limited budget and a third world location what forms of patent free 
"Edutoys" would offer the greatest benefit to the largest number of children 
in terms of fostering intellectual development?

The toys need to be manufactured on site, they need to be robust and suitable 
for children from 3 up to 7 years old.

Ideally the budget is only consumed but documenting the design and manufacture 
of the toys and on training people regional centres to produce them as well 
as train others. I recognise that some funding may be required for tools, 
materials and distribution.

Why the third world? Well duh! That is where most of the children are!

Any ideas for such low-tech high extropy toy designs?
